Abstract
A non-T:non-B accessory cell in peritoneal washout or spleen-cell suspensions facilitates T-cell proliferative responses to the mitogen, concanavalin A. Utilizing monoclonal antibody, we show that this accessory cell bears the same I-A- and I-E-subregion controlled determinants as found on B cells. In addition, the same accessory cell bears a Tla(Qa-1?)-region and an I-J-subregion controlled determinant. This I-J determinant is also present on splenic accessory cells involved in in vitro antibody responses to sheep red blood cells. Data in a companion paper show that not all anti-I-J sera contain antibody reactive with the accessory cell, and suggest that T cells involved in the generation of suppressor activity and accessory cells bear different I-J-subregion controlled determinants.
