title: Cyclic AMP and T-cell differentiation.
abstract: We have studied the effects of a circulating thymic factor (TF), cyclic AMP (cAMP) and prostaglandins on T-lymphocyte differentiation in the mouse using three parameters: 1) 0-bearing cell percentage evaluated by a cytotoxicity test with anti-0 serum (A0S) plus complement; 2) 0-antigen presence on rosette forming cells (RFC) assessed by the inhibition of rosette formation with A0S; 3) lymphocyte mediated cytotoxicity (LMC) against allogeneic target cells after in vivo sensitization, using a chromium release assay.
