This volume demonstrates the great progress made since the first successful allogeneic marrow transplants were performed in man over twenty years ago and also confronts today's unresolved significant problems. These include acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease, infection after bone marrow transplantation, and leukemic relapses. Discussion of experimental bone marrow transplantation focuses on such topics as the following: failure of self/nonself discrimination, prevention of transfusion-induced sensitization in marrow transplant recipients, bone marrow purging with chemical and...

It is perhaps not too much of an exaggeration to claim that experimental hematology as it flourishes today originated largely from the pioneering attempts to protect lethally radiated animals (1) by shielding of hemopoietic tissues by L. O. Jacobson (9), and (2) by treatment with bone marrow suspensions by E. Lorenz and his col laborators (12). The site chosen for this annual meeting of the International Society for Experi mental Hematology is given a special historic sig nificance by the fact that it was 25 years ago that the first publication on this subject by Lorenz ap peared from his...
