Abstract
LIF [leukocyte migration inhibitory factor] release by Con A [concanavalin A] stimulated mononuclear cells was evaluated in 67 randomly selected healthy Sicilians typed for HLA antigens. B8 and/or DR3 positive subjects release less LIF than negative ones, suggesting that this immunological response might be controlled by HLA-linked immune response (Ir) gene(s).This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
