Mixed Leukocyte Stimulation of Normal Peripheral Leukocytes by Autologous Lymphoblastoid Cells

Abstract
Lymphocyte culture lines can be established by using buffy coat cells from normal or diseased individuals. Established lymphocytoblasts from a normal donor were used in the one-way mixed leukocyte culture test and were found to stimulate the peripheral lymphocytes of that donor. These lymphocytoblasts were also capable of stimulating allogeneic lymphocyte populations.
