Abstract
Specific stimulation [transformation] of thymus-derived cells by purified protein derivative or tetanus toxoid [an expression of delayed hypersensitivity] was inhibited by autologous lymphocytes. The lymphocytes, collected from healthy humans who were vaccinated with BCG, were purified on nylon columns after removal of cells that form rosettes with sheep erythrocytes. The degree of purification of the lymphocytes was controlled by appropriate techniques.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
