Abstract:
Abstract Sensitivity to L-leucyl-L-leucine methyl ester (Leu-Leu-OMe) was used to characterize the phenotype of human activated killer cells. Natural killer cells (NK) and the precursors of both the alloantigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) and the NK-like activated killer cells generated after stimulation with allogeneic cells were deleted from human peripheral blood lymphocytes by preincubation with Leu-Leu-OMe. It was noted, however, that cytotoxic lymphocytes could be generated from Leu-Leu-OMe-treated lymphocyte precursors after 2 to 6 days of culture with the nonspecific mitogen

Patients with types I, II, and pancreatogenic diabetes mellitus were examined for the counts of T precursor cells using autorosette formation test in the presence of t-activin, an activator of T lymphocyte differentiation.

Disorders of cellular immunity in type I diabetes mellitus were found to be associated with depletion of pre-T-lymphocytes.

Nonetheless, multipotent precursors derived from both the fetal thymus and fetal liver are capable of rapidly differentiating to the NK1.1+ stage upon transfer into fetal thymic organ culture (FTOC). This suggests that expression of NK1.1 marks a thymus-induced lineage commitment event. We now report that a subset of the most immature fetal thymocytes (

Abstract After infection with Epstein Barr virus (EBV), human B lymphocytes actively secrete immunoglobulin (Ig) and are immortalized to become long-term cell lines. In these studies, we investigated the relationship between these virally induced processes utilizing limiting dilution culture techniques, and asked whether all B cells stimulated by EBV to secrete Ig are also immortalized. The activation of B cells by EBV resulting in Ig production and immortalization involved a single precursor cell, required live viral particles, and was independent of immunity to EBV by the lymphocyte donor.

Two new mAbs (M/K-1 and M/K-2) define an adhesion molecule expressed on stromal cell clones derived from murine bone marrow.

VCAM-1 is expressed on endothelial cells in inflammatory sites and recognized by the integrin VLA-4 expressed on lymphocytes and monocytes. The new stromal cell molecule is a candidate ligand for the VLA-4 expressed on immature B lineage lymphocytes and a possible homologue of human VCAM-1.

Lymphopoietic cells require interactions with bone marrow stroma for normal maturation and show changes in adhesion to matrix during their differentiation. Syndecan, a heparan sulfate-rich integral membrane proteoglycan, functions as a matrix receptor by binding cells to interstitial collagens, fibronectin, and thrombospondin. Therefore, we asked whether syndecan was present on the surface of lymphopoietic cells. In bone marrow, we find syndecan only on precursor B cells.
