Title: Studies on non-H-2 linked lymphocyte activating determinants. I. Description of the cell type bearing the Mls product. Author: Ahmed A, Scher I, Smith AH, Sell KW. Journal: J Immunogenet; 1977 Jun; 4(3):201-13. PubMed ID: 70491. Abstract: The non-H-2 linked, lymphocyte activating determinants (LADs), which are coded by the minor (histocompatibility) lymphocyte stimulating locus (Mls), were detected on B lymphocytes, but not on immunoglobuin (Ig) negative or on theta positive T lymphocytes. These determinants, like the complement receptor and surface IgD, develop late in neonatal life. Thus, the Mls coded LADs mark a population of B lymphocytes which are not present in the spleens of newborn to 2-week-old mice. Studies of B lymphocytes derived from the spleens of adult mice indicated that the cells bear the Mls coded LADs have a high density of surface Ig and possess the complement receptor.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
