The morphology, frequency, and distribution of mitotic cells in the epithelium of the Harderian gland was studied in the male and female hamster from birth to the ninetieth day of postnatal life using light and electron microscopic techniques. The results obtained show that there is a gradual declin

Experimentation has been carried out to study proliferation of plasma cells in the chicken Harderian gland (HG) and to determine if a HG factor influences immune cell (i.e., B cell) proliferation. In young chickens, flow cytometric analysis of propidium iodide (PIkstained plasma cells revealed that
