Normal adult Chacma baboons were investigated with reference to their basic immunological parameters, including serum immunoglobulin concentrations, proportions of T- and B-lymphocytes in the peripheral blood, and lymphocyte response to activators. As rabbit antihuman antisera to immunoglobulins were used for the serum immunoglobulin determinations, cross-reactivity between human and baboon immunoglobulins was evaluated, and it was found that human and baboon IgG and IgM were both completely cross-reactive, while IgA was partially cross-reactive. The serum immunoglobulin concentrations, proportions of T- and B-lymphocytes, and response to activators were found to be similar to those of man. These findings indicate that the Chacma baboon would be a useful and relevant model for the study of cellular and humoral immunology.
