Title: Parameters involved in the in vitro immunization of tonsilar lymphocytes: effects of rIL-2 and muramyl dipeptide. Author: Carroll K, Prosser E, O'Kennedy R. Journal: Hybridoma; 1990 Feb; 9(1):81-9. PubMed ID: 2312133. Abstract: A method for the in vitro immunization of human tonsilar lymphocytes is described. This method allows for the sensitization of B-cells against various antigens under serum-free medium conditions. The medium is supplemented with defined concentrations of antigen, rIL-2 and muramyl dipeptide to boost the immune responses. This method may prove useful for the generation of antigen reactive B-cells for use in human monoclonal antibody production and the study of the effects of other lymphokines on the in vitro immune response.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
