IN VITRO-INITIATED SECONDARY ANTI-HAPTEN RESPONSE : II. INCREASING CELL AVIDITY FOR ANTIGEN

Bullock, Wesley W., Rittenberg, Marvin B.

Decreasing antigen in vivo may preferentially stimulate cells with the potential for synthesis of high-affinity antibody through activation of surface receptors with similarly high affinity. This...

PURIFIED PROTEIN DERIVATIVE OF TUBERCULIN INDUCES IMMUNOGLOBULIN PRODUCTION IN NORMAL MOUSE SPLEEN CELLS

Nilsson, Bengt S., Sultzer, Barnet M., Bullock, Wesley W.

Purified protein derivative (PPD) tuberculin induced immunoglobulin production in cultures of nonimmune mouse spleen cells, as measured by plaque-forming cells (PFC) against sheep erythrocytes...

MECHANISM OF THYMUS-INDEPENDENT IMMUNOCYTE TRIGGERING : MITOGENIC ACTIVATION OF B CELLS RESULTS IN SPECIFIC IMMUNE RESPONSES

Coutinho, Antonio, Gronowicz, Eva, Bullock, Wesley W., Möller, Göran

The present experiments were performed in order to analyze the mechanism by which thymus-independent antigens (nonspecific B-cell mitogens) can induce specific immune responses to antigenic...
