Migratory patterns of B lymphocytes. III. Inhibition of splenic follicular localization of transferred chicken bursa cells by preincubation with anti-Ig-1

Abstract

Homing of 3-H-adenosine-labeled bursa cells to follicles in the chickens spleen was greatly reduced by prior incubation of the transferred cells with rabbit anti-chicken-immunoglobulin sera. This effect was transient, being present 6 hr after cell transfer but gone by 18 hr, when incubation was at 0 degreesC without complement. The inhibition persisted until at least 18 hr after incubation at 37 degrees C with complement.
