title: T cell responses to alloantigens. II. In vitro induction of specific Ts by heat-inactivated allogeneic lymphoid cells.
abstract: When viable B6AF1 murine spleen cells were cultured in combination with heat-inactivated B10.D2 spleen cells under appropriate conditions, alloantigen-specific suppressor T cells (Ts) were generated. The optimal conditions for generation of specific Ts included a responder cell number of 2 to 4 X 10(6)/ml, a high stimulator to responder ratio, the use of at least 30 min of heat treatment (45 C) of stimulator cells, and 6 or more days of culture.
