Ten female Wistar rats received 0.2 ml (1.5 mg/dl) bovine lens antigen (a and b crystallin) in incomplete Freund's adjuvant 5 times with 10 days among systemically according to a schedule. Half of the immunized rats were treated with 0.1 ml prednisolone (10 mg/kg). No statistically significant difference was found in the immunogloblin and protein values 10,20,40 and 50 days after immunization at any time (p>0.05). Our study to evaluate the long-term effects of immunosupression is ongoing.Keywords: Crystallin, Experimental cataract,
