Influence of Thymus at the Level of Anaphylactic Shock in Porpoises

Abstract

Many research studies have concluded that thymus plays an important role in the immuno-allergic reactions of the organisms. Comparatively little is known of the reaction of thymectonomy during the quick reaction of anaphylactic shock. The aim of this report is to study and further research the influence of thymectonomy performed in different age brackets of animals during the height of the development of anaphylactic shock in porpoises.
