title: Role of T and adherent cells in in vitro response of nude mouse spleen cells to bacterial lipopolysaccharide.
abstract: Thy 1.2-positive cells and adherent cells were depleted from nude mouse spleen cell suspensions by treatment with anti-Thy 1.2 antisera plus complement and by passage through Sephadex G-10 column, respectively. The results of 3H-TdR uptake and appearance of IgM containing cells induced in vitro by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were similar in both untreated and depleted spleen cells. Our findings confirm T and adherent cell independence of LPS response in nude mice.
