(6) After allogeneic grafting (CAP leads to LEW; RtH-1-incompatible) the non-specific-healing reaction progressed into a second phase, namely the specific reaction: increasing infiltration of the host cornea and the graft with small lymphocytes, blast cells and macrophages, directly followed by severe vascularization, reaching its climax about the 14th day.

(14) Infected LEW rats produced greater or equal levels of the major classes of serum antibody to M. pulmonis than did infected F344 rats, suggesting that development of serum antibody responses alone does not resolve lesions and is not responsible for the difference in disease severity found in LEW and F344 rats.
