The data on changes in expression of H-2 complex and Thy-1 antigens on cell surface of thymocytes resulting from their incubation with peritoneal macrophages has been presented. The process of joint cultivation of thymocytes with macrophages leads to significant decrease in number of cells with Thy-2-antigen and increase in that with H-2 complex antigens. An increase in H-2K+ cells in experimental thymocytes as compared to control ones was observed. No changes in H-2D expression was observed. A significant increase in Ia+ macrophages was observed after interaction with thymocytes as compared with intact mononuclear phagocytes.
