Abstract
BALB/c skin grafts incubated with ribonucleic acid (RNA) from C3H mice were rejected when transplanted to syngeneic recipients1. Such grafts were rejected between 10 and 27 days after transplantation with a median survival time (MST) of 18 days. The MST of C3H skin on BALB/c recipients was 12.5 days.
