title: Maturation of the lymphoid system. III. Induction of selective unresponsiveness by injection of a haptenated carbohydrate into neonatal mice.
abstract: Neonatal treatment of A/J mice with DNP-Ficoll reduced or eliminated indirect anti-DNP PFC normally produced in response to adult challenge with DNP-keyhole limpet hemocyanin. The remaining direct anti-DNP PFC response was of low avidity. Spleen cells from neonatal A/J mice inhibited the in vitro but not the in vivo response of adult spleen cells to DNP-Ficoll.
