abstract：:A serum factor, believed to be an IgG autoantibody, in certain patients with lepromatous leprosy inhibits the proliferation of mitogen-stimulated lymphocytes. To investigate which stage of the cell cycle was inhibited, we examined the effect of these sera on the kinetics of lymphocyte activation induced by several mit...
