title: [Transfer of information from T and B lymphocytes during immune response: role of extracellular DNA].
abstract: Human lymphocytes obtained from donors exhibiting different allotypes were separated into B and T subpopulations and cultured in presence or in absence of UV-inactivated Herpes simplex virus. Isolated B or T cells did not produce antiherpetic activity. The B lymphocytes, cultured in presence of the supernatant collected from virus exposed T cells or in the presence of DNA extracted from this supernatant, synthesized an antiherpetic antibody carrying allotypic markers of the T cell donor.
