Antibodies against the transferrin receptor block the induction of cytotoxic T lymphocytes. A new method for antigen-specific negative selection in vitro.

abstract：:By means of a novel technique for identification and isolation of MHC class II-restricted antigen-specific T cells, we describe here in non-transgenic BALB / c mice physiological positive selection of an oligoclonal population of T cells which recognizes both a self MHC-derived peptide (Ialpha52) and a bacterial homol...
