Abstract
The livers from mice runted as a result of the graft versus host reaction and experimental bacterial endotoxaemia, show many similar electron microscopic features. The similarity of these lesions suggests a common aetiology and with this in mind the results are related to present concepts of the immunology of the graft versus host reaction and murine runting in general.
