title: Surface adhesive properties of baboon lymphocyte and derived lymphoblastoid cell lines.
abstract: Cell surface adhesiveness of lymphocytes isolated from the peripheral blood of Papio hamadryas monkeys was compared to the adhesiveness of lymphoblastoid cell lines derived by transformation of these lymphocytes with herpesvirus Papio. For the quantitative comparison of the cell surface adhesive properties, a recently developed latex particle adherence assay was utilized. It was found that cell surface adhesiveness of the suspension lines was substantially lower than that of their precursor lymphocytes.
