Role of self-carriers in the immune response and tolerance. I. B-cell unresponsiveness and cytotoxic T-cell immunity induced by haptenated syngeneic lymphoid cells

摘要

Normal spleen cells cultured with TNP-modified syngeneic spleen cells fail to mount an anti-TNP PFC response to TNP-ficoll or TNP-red blood cells,but go on to generate cytotoxic T cells directed at hapten- modified H-2.These results suggest that hapten-modifeid spleen cells may differentially induce B-cell tolerance and T- (Ly 2,3) cell immunity. The differential response to modified self by lymphocyte subpopulations is discussed.
