title: Further characterization of human suppressor cells generated in mixed lymphocyte cultures.
abstract: Suppressor cells can be generated in mixed lymphocyte cultures (MLC). The studies reported here show that the cells responsible for suppression belong to relatively radioresistant T cells. Furthermore, to generate suppressor cells in MLC, the cells must be able to proliferate, while this is not necessary for expression of the suppressive capacity.
