title: Effect of peptichemio upon localization of injected radiolabelled lymphocytes in the lymphatic organs of antigen-stimulated mice.
abstract: Increased localization (trapping) of lymphocytes occurs in lymphoid organs following antigenic challenge. The effect of peptichemio (PTC) upon lymphocyte trapping in lymph nodes and spleen was investigated: the results demonstrate that the drug diminishes trapping in lymphatic organs. The depression of lymphocyte trapping may provide at least one mechanism whereby PTC achieves it immunosuppressive effects.
