abstract：:Mercuric chloride (HgCl(2)) has been proposed to be a mitogen for human blood lymphocytes in vitro. In our previous study, we demonstrated that HgCl(2) preferentially stimulates the CD4+ T cell subset to blast transformation and DNA synthesis and that the reaction is dependent on CD14+ accessory cells. In order to cha...
