  • Title: [Comparative study of antibody formation in ontogenetically determined and experimentally shaped populations of cooperating mouse cells].
    Author: Stepanova TN, Sobolev SM.
    Journal: Ontogenez; 1985; 16(6):605-9. PubMed ID: 4088600.
    Abstract:
    When studying the levels of immune response to the sheep erythrocytes in the adoptive transfer system in a population of cooperating bone marrow and spleen cells of the intact mice formed under the effect of hydrocortisone, differences have been found in their capacity to produce antibody-forming cells. Unlike the population of spleen cells formed during ontogenesis, the population of cooperating bone marrow cells acquires the capacity to develop an intensive enough immune response only after twofold immunization of the recipient and remains insensitive to the priming treatment of the donors with the sheep erythrocytes. These behavioral peculiarities of the population of cooperating bone marrow cells are due to relative deficiency of mature T-B helpers; the primed spleen T-lymphocytes are not involved in the formation of the pool of the latter.
