ABSTRACT
Passive transfer of protective antituberculous immunity against LD50 dose of M. tuberculosis H37Rv was found to be mainly mediated by immune T-cells harvested from spleens of donor mice immunized with Myc. RNA-P-FIA complexes as monitored by indices of percent survival, root specific lung weight, lung density and by bacterial enumeration from different organs. Treatment of immune T-cells with anti-Thy 1.2. monoclonal antibodies plus complement prior to passive transfer, completely abrogated its protective effect thereby confirming their protective nature. Passive transfer of immune sera as well as immune T + B cells did not induce any enhancement in protective immunity.
