EFFECT OF ADRENO-CORTICAL EXTRACTS ON BONE MARROW EOSINOPHILES OF MICE1

Abstract
Adrenalectomized male mice of the C-57 Brown strain were injd. with Lipo-Adrenal Cortex and myelograms taken at 2,4,6, 8, 12, 24, and 36 hrs. after injn. There was a marked increase in younger stages of eosinophilic cells, indicating an active production of new cells by the bone marrow. The increase in activity of the bone marrow seems sufficient to explain the increase in eosinophiles in peripheral blood during recovery from the response to adrenal cortical extract.
