Abstract

Susceptibility to HgCl~2~‐induced glomerulonephritis was transferred to resistant Lewis (LEW) rats, irradiated and reconstituted with (LEW × BN)F~1~, hybrid immunocompetent cells. This glomerulonephritis was similar to that observed in Brown‐Norway (BN) rats with a first stage characterized by anti‐glomerular basement membrane antibodies and a second stage with immune complex‐type deposits in the glomerular tufts and in the small renal arteries.
