A general interactive model for B cell activation II. Experimental verification
Abstract
The general interactive model described in the previous paper was subjected to experimental testing. We examined the high affinity anti-TNP plaque-forming cell response of cultures of murine lymphocytes exposed to lipopolysaccharide and trinitrophenylated lipopolysaccharide (TNP--LPS). From our model we predicted the effects of the addition of free LPS on the dose response to TNP--LPS, the effect of the addition of Polymyxin B to cultures stimulated with TNP--LPS, and the effect on the response to TNP--LPS preparations with different haptenation ratios. The results obtained were consistent with the predictions of the general interactive model.
