Abstract
Antigen-specific T[thymus-derived]-suppressor cells can be induced in vitro from unprimed lymphoid cells of high responder (C57BL/10) and low responder (B10.Br, B10.A, CBA) mice to (T,G)-A-L [synthetic polypeptide containing tyrosine, glutamic acid, alanine and lysine] and high responder (B10, B10.A) and non-responder (B10.G, DBA/1) mice to GAT10 [synthetic polypeptide containing glutamic acid, alanine and 10% tyrosine]. The suppressor cells induced from high and low or non-responder mice appear identical in efficiency, in the antigen concentration required for induction and in their induction kinetics.
