title: Angiogenesis induction by CD-4 positive lymphocytes.
abstract: Adult splenocytes from BALB/c mice, labeled with a monoclonal antibody directed against the L3T4 (CD-4) differentiation antigen, were sorted to obtain pure suspensions of this T-cell subset. When inoculated intradermally into irradiated, semi-allogeneic adult animals these cells were found to be the effector cells responsible for the lymphocyte-induced angiogenesis. The experiments demonstrate that the CD-4 lymphocyte subset is primarily or entirely responsible for this immune-mediated elicitation of the host neovascular reaction.
