Title: Young F mice spontaneously generate cytotoxic T cells against parental targets. Author: Ishikawa H, Dutton RW. Journal: J Immunol; 1979 Nov; 123(5):2034-9. PubMed ID: 314956. Abstract: Spleen cells from young (AKR/J female x BALB/c) or (BALB/c female x AKR/J)F1 mice can spontaneously generate effector cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), in a 5-day primary in vitro culture, which lyse target cells from AKR/J and BALB/c but not allogeneic mice. These spontaneous CTL responses first appear when spleen cells are taken from F1 mice at 3 to 4 weeks of age, are maximum at about 5 weeks, and have declined by week 7. The fact that these spontaneous CTL responses are never detectable in the spleen cell cultures from any ages of parental AKR/J and BALB/c mice makes them unique properties of the F1 mice.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
