Influence of irradiation on the capacity of human T and B lymphocytes to form E and HEAC rosettes.
Human lymphocytes were irradiated in vitro with 0 to 50,000 rad. It was shown that the capacity of lymphocytes (1) to form E rosettes was inhibited after irradiation with 500 rad, (2) to form spontaneous E rosettes was inhibited after irradiation with 100 rad, (3) to form HEAC rosettes was resistant to radiation, and (4) that already formed E rosettes, spontaneous E rosettes, and HEAC rosettes were resistant to radiation.
