Rabbits possess conventional T lymphocytes.

C Bell, H Wigzell

    European Journal of Immunology
    |October 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Rabbit lymphocytes lack constant region immunoglobulin (Ig) markers, behaving like conventional T lymphocytes. Bone marrow cells initially lack surface Ig but quickly develop B cell characteristics upon in vitro explanation.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Cell Biology

    Background:

    • Surface immunoglobulin (Ig) markers are crucial for distinguishing lymphocyte subsets.
    • Understanding these markers in rabbits is essential for comparative immunology.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze surface Ig markers on rabbit lymphocytes.
    • To correlate these markers with lymphocyte function.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized specific anti-Ig reagents and B and T cell-specific mitogens.
    • Assessed DNA synthesis and high-rate Ig synthesis in vitro.
    • Fractionated lymphocytes from spleen, lymph node, blood, and bone marrow.

    Main Results:

    • Surface Ig-negative lymphocytes from spleen, lymph node, and blood exhibited T lymphocyte behavior.

  • No significant allotypic markers were found on nonactivated rabbit T lymphocytes.
  • Bone marrow lymphocytes, initially surface Ig-negative, rapidly expressed Ig and B cell markers in vitro.

    • Conclusions:

    • Rabbit lymphocytes consistently behave like conventional T lymphocytes.
    • No constant region Ig markers were identified on rabbit lymphocytes.
