Methods: Eighty adult Wistar rats were randonjy divided into experimental and control groups.The formers underwent splenotomy and a half splenie slice was transplanted into greater omentum. The latter only moved. After 6 months, examination was made as follows: ① After injection of 0.4% carbon particles by vein, spleme tissues were taken out at different times for estimating phagocytosis by light microscope. ② When splenic tissues had been intubated into left ventricle under total anesthesia, animals were perfused by formalin and India ink mixture suspension. Splenic tissues were taken out for making sections for measurement of area density of blood vessels.③ Immunohistochemical procedure was used for detecting neuropeptide Y(NPY). Results: Phagocytie functions had no difference between two groups, hut the area density of blood vessels and NPY-positive fibers re-dued (P<0.01) in experimental group. Conclusion:Autotransplanted splenic tissues show good innate immunity though regeneration of blood vessels and nerves do not reach normal level.展开更多
