title: T-cell regulation of CD5+ B-cell activity in normal mice.
abstract: The differentiation of plaque-forming cell (PFC) precursors against bromelain-treated syngeneic erythrocytes (Br MRBC) into PFC induced in vitro by LPS is down-regulated by nylon non-adherent (nylon-passed--NP) T cells and by nylon adherent (NA) T cells. NA T cells are more potent inhibitors than NP T cells. This regulatory activity of NA and NP T cells results from an interaction between CD4+ radioresistant and CD8+ radiosensitive T cells. Furthermore CD4+ T cells from the NA fraction but not from the NP fraction are activated cells: their inhibitory activity is abrogated after preincubation with cycloheximide. These results are discussed within the overall framework of T-cell regulation of autoimmune anti-Br MRBC B-cell subsets.
