Identification of vascular endothelial cells in murine omentum using the lectin,Dolichos biflorus agglutinin: Possible applications in the study of angiogenesis

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the plant lectin,Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA), can be used to recognize capillary endothelial cells and their processes during angiogenesis. By means of a ...

The effect of abrin, anti-lymphocyte globulin and their conjugates on the immune response of mice to sheep red blood cells

A chemical conjugate of anti-mouse lymphocyte globulin and abrin, is about twice as effective as a similar conjugate made with normal immunoglobulin and abrin, in suppressing the ability of the mouse to respon...

Peanut lectin binding properties of germinal centers of mouse lymphoid tissue

Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) lectin (PNL) has been shown to agglutinate the 90% of cells from murine thymus which are supposed to be immature cortical thymocytes¹. Further studies on the numbers of thymocytes bindin...

Serum amyloid P-component is an acute-phase reactant in the mouse

THE acute-phase reaction in mammals is characterised by an increase in the concentration of certain plasma proteins which starts within hours or days of most forms of acute tissue damage or inflammation, and p...

The influence of thymus on the development of MHC restrictions exhibited by T-helper cells

IMMUNE functions depend largely on the activities of peripheral lymphocytes which have been ‘processed’ in the thymus (T cells). The best characterised activities of these cells, such as in vitro cytotoxicity and...

Toxicity of diphtheria toxin for lymphoblastoid cells is increased by conjugation to antilymphocytic globulin

THERE is a pressing need in medicine for cytotoxic agents with tissue specificity. It may be possible to produce such agents by conjugating cytotoxic materials, themselves lacking inherent specificity, to anti...

Assessment of Drug Sensitivity of Human Leukaemic Myeloblasts

The compound ¹²⁵IUdR can be incorporated in a stable form into the DNA of cells. The isotope is released if labelled cells or their progeny die. Consequently the rate of ¹²⁵I excretion from mice can be used to fo...

Tumor-host cell hybrids in radiochimeras reconstituted with bone marrow and thymus grafts

CBA/H and CBA/HT6T6 radiation chimeras were prepared by lethal irradiation and subsequent reconstitution with bone marrow of the host karyotype and thymocytes of the opposite karyotype. After T- and B-cell chi.....
