The role of betamethasone in the lungs of mice treated with lymphocytosis-promoting factor (LPF) was studied. Intravenous injection with 10 ng of LPF produced significant lymphocytosis and monocytosis five days later. Two groups were also treated with betamethasone: the first with daily

Sphha/sphha anemic mice have an abnormality in the erythroid membrane protein, alpha spectrin, and exhibit multiple related clinical abnormalities, including spherocytosis, shortened red cell survival, chronic hemolysis, hemosiderosis, and extramedullary hematopoiesis. In addition, these mutant mice
Four infants are described with kwashiorkor that was unassociated with poverty or infection as predisposing factors of their disease. The condition followed various dietary regimens deficient in protein of five weeks to seven months in duration. Features of this "sugar-bady" form of kwashiorkor
