The reported and original research data on immune regulation of cellular proliferation and differentiation in diverse tissues are summarized. Such regulative function is considered to be the expression of the proposed role of the immune system in the realization of genetic information at the integral bodily level. It is postulated that in addition to the information flow: DNA--RNA--protein (in each cell), another information flow may exist: the central organs of the lymphoid system--lymphocytes migrating to different organs and tissues--organs and tissues characterized by specific organ, tissue and differentiation antigens.
