Antibody production studied by means of the LHG assay. I. The splenic response of CBA mice to sheep erythrocytes

H H Wortis et al. Immunology. 1966 Dec.

Abstract

By means of a modified plaque assay the numbers of cells producing 19S antibody (direct PFC) and 7S antibody (developed PFC) have been studied separately. Significant and somewhat surprising differences in the responses of the two kinds of antibody-producing cell have been noted. It is clear that the route of injection of the antigen is of importance in determining the response in the spleen. The response of both types of PFC was found to be biphasic. The total increase in spleen cell number after immunization was not readily accounted for by the increase in specific PFC.
