abstract：:Free fatty acids (FFA) were tested for their effects on in vitro thymus-dependent (TD) and thymus-independent (TI) immune responses. Murine T cells proliferating in one-way mixed leucocyte reactions (MLR) were extremely sensitive to inhibition by exogenous stearic acid (18:0) but were only moderately affected by oleic...
