title: Selective activation of human suppressor cells by a nonproliferative stimulus.
abstract: The eliciting of suppressor cell activity by heat-treated stimulating cells demonstrates that suppression can be induced by an antigenic but non-effective mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC) stimulus in vitro. Simultaneous or prior MLC or cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity is not required for alloantigen-induced suppressor cell activation.
