摘要:: Different concentrations of spleen cells from C57BL.10 mice were activated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and DNA synthesis and IgM and IgG secretion were measured. The dilution curve was sigmoid, and the response was rapidly lost below a certain cell concentration. In the presence of thymocytes or spleen cells from the LPS-non-responder strain C57BL.10/ScCr the dilution curve for the LPS response of cells from C57BL.10 mice became linear, and the overall response was increased. Irradiated cells could not restore the response at suboptimal cell concentrations. In addition, enriched T cells restored the response as well as normal spleen cells, whereas enriched B cells did not. We compared the restoring capacity of different filler cells for the LPS response with that of a plasmacytoma cell line cultured at suboptimal cell concentrations. The results are compatible with the idea that the filler cells provide growth-stimulating activity to LPS-responsive cells but growth-supporting activity to the tumour cells. Furthermore, highly enriched B-cell populations respond poorly to LPS, but the response can be partly restored by filler cells. These data suggest that the LPS response is accessory-cell-dependent.
