The histopathological features of the acute infection by Candida albicans in susceptible CBA/H mice, as well as its dissemination in various organs has been examined. The brain, in which the localization of blastospores is minimal, is the organ most severely affected. A significant deposition of bla

β¦ Synopsis
A spontaneous subluxation and subsequent dislocation of the bones of the ankle has been described in the males of an inbred strain of mouse (STR/ORT). It consisted of a gradual elevation of the calcaneum which eventually came to lie along the distal end of the tibia after 6--8 mth. The astragalus rotated forward. Articulations with the navicular and tarsal bones were severely disrupted with the accompanying development of peri-articular calcifications and ossifications. With one exception the arthropathy only occurred in male mice. Of the male members of the colony over the age of 3 mth, 26.7 per cent. had at least one ankle affected. Possible aetiological factors are discussed.

A new allele of Es-1, designated Es-1e, has been identified in the mouse. This allele was discovered segregating among the progeny of a strain DBA/2J male and is apparently the result of a spontaneous mutation within this strain. Genetic analyses have shown that this mutation is heritable and, furth
## Abstract C3H/Heβmg and AKR mice were injected intraperitoneally with lymphocytes prepared from the spleen of (C3H/Heβmg X AKR)F~1~ hybrid mice bearing Grossβvirus leukemia. Lymphocyte suspensions were prepared from the spleen, mesenteric lymph node and thymus of mice at different days after the
C.B-I7 SCID mice were inoculated with human peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) from normal Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)seropositive and -seronegative donors. Confirmation of a functioning human immune response was demonstrated by the detection of human antibody after inoculation with rotavirus, tetanus
