Abstract
Mice have been analyzed at different times post neonatal inoculation of F 1 hybrid lymphoid cells for their ability to respond to foreign MHC antigens expressed on the tolerizing cell population, and to impart that response phenotype to normal adult spleen cells. At early times following neonatal challenge with F 1 spleen cells all mice produced serum immunoglobulins of F 1 donor origin which inhibited the response of normal adult cells. The antigenic specificity of the inhibitory factors suggests a role for an antireceptor antibody in the inhibition seen, and the presence of such serum-mediated inhibition is indicative of (and may be causally related to) the late appearance of a cell-mediated suppressor mechanism in these mice.
