Abstract
Summary Tensile strength and rate of contraction of standard wounds were comparable in neonatally thymectomized and intact control Sprague-Dawley rats. Quantitative and qualitative histochemical and histological estimation of fibrillar, substrate and exudative stages of wounding were also similar. It is concluded that lymphocytes exert no thymus-dependent immunologic influence on this type of inflammatory response.
