Removal of Mitogen from Leukocytes Exposed to Phytohemagglutinin or
نویسنده
چکیده
The stimulation of lymphocyte transformation by autologous human lymphoblasts established in continuous culture has been reported by several laboratories (1-6). The nature of the determinants on cultured lymphoblasts that stimulate transformation of autologous lymphocytes is not clear, but may be related to what appears to be a universal infection (latent or expressed) of all lymphoblast lines by the Epstein Barr (EB) 1 virus (7-10).

متن کاملLymphocyte Transformation Induced by Autologous Cells
Lymphocytes incubated with phytohemagglutinin or concanavalin A develop the capacity to stimulate autologous lymphocyte transformation. This is not attributable to residual mitogen contaminating the lymphoblastic cell preparation as: (a) the dissociation of mitogen from the lymphoblastic cell preparation increases the degree of stimulation observed and (b) the kinetics of lymphocyte transformat...

The sequestration of rat leukocytes and bone marrow cells by the lung vasculature was studied using an isolated perfused rat lung preparation. The passage of latex particles of 7.6 µm in diameter and non-hematopoietic cells through the lung blood vessels was also studied. Leukocytes and bone marrow cells were reversibly sequestered from circulation, whereas, latex particles and non-hematop...
