An estimation of the frequency of precursor cells which generate cytotoxic lymphocytes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The cell-mediated immune response has been generated in vitro with a polyacrylamide culture system which allows the segregation of foci (clones?) of cytotoxic lymphocytes. Using the method of limiting dilutions, the frequency of precursor cells in CBA spleen cells able to generate a cytotoxic response against DBA mastocytoma is estimated at 1 per 1,700 cells.

Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is associated with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). Only a limited percentage of infected individuals develop disease in response to the virus while the majority remain asymptomatic and HAM/TSP is the most common clinical manifestation of the virus. HAM/TSP is an inflamma...

BACKGROUNDS: Seminoma is frequently observed in human and canine testes especially in cryptorchids. Canine and human seminomas are typically associated with leukocytic infiltration. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to identify the type of lymphocytes that infiltrate to seminomas. METHODS: Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes were evaluated by immunohistological techniques in 5 dogs with diffuse seminoma. Routine...

Background and Objective: Proliferation and apoptosis of lymphocytes are essential parts of the immune system. Most anti-cancer chemotherapy drugs such as vincristine target cell cycle and induce apoptosis in cancer cells. In other words, dividing cells undergo more apoptosis, which may also include the normal proliferating lymphocytes responsive to malignancies as well. Materials ...
