title: Immunohistochemical identification of T- and B-lymphocytes delineated by the unlabeled antibody enzyme method. I. Anatomical distribution of theta-positive and Ig-positive cells in lymphoid organs of mice.
abstract: The unlabeled antibody enzyme method was used to delineate the anatomical distribution of lymphocytes positive with a MBtheta and a-MIg in tissue sections of thymus, spleen, lymph nodes and Peyer's patches of mice. The known T- and B-cell areas were established. Moreover, individual B-cells are detected in T-cell regions, especially in the thymus medulla, and in the periarteriolar section of spleen white pulp. Similarly, individual T-cells occur in B-cell areas, namely in the marginal zone of spleen white pulp, in the medullar cores of lymph nodes, and in germinal centers.
