Partially purified lymphocytic factors were obtained from boving spleen; these factors are non-cytotoxic and biologically active in vitro and in vivo: [3H]Thymidine incorporation into DNA of mitogen-stimulated mouse spleen cells in culture is inhibited; similar results are obtained with phytohaemagglutinin-stimulated peripheral human lymphocytes, where blast cells transformation is blocked. [3H]Thymidine incorporation into DNA of mitogen stimulated lymphocytes withdrawn from in vivo treated mice, is also reduced. The two factors in vitro and in vivo seem to act preferentially on mouse spleen cells compared to their action on liver, kidney and testicle cells in cluture, as far as thymidine incorporation into DNA is concerned. The following techniques were applied for their purification: 1. Homogenization of the fresh tissue in water, centrifugation, dialysis of the supernatant, centrifugation, fractionation of the supernatant by alcoholic precipitation and finally concentration in vacuo and lyophilization of the material soluble at 75% of alcohol yielded fraction F. 2. Preparation of an acetone powder from the spleen, extraction of the dry powder with water, then high speed centrifugation, followed by lyophilization of the supernatant produced fraction F'. Both fractions F and F' were further fractionated by chromatography on a Sephadex G75 column: 7 peaks were obtained (F1--F7). Biological activity was found in fraction F1, corresponding to high molecular weight material, and in fraction F6, corresponding to low molecular weight substances. By rechromatography on Sephadex G 75, it is easy to dissociate from F1 a small molecular weight fraction which might be similar to F6 as far as elution volume and biological properties are concerned.
