Murine thymic NK cells: A case of identity.

abstract：:The functional half-life, a measure of the persistence of lymphocytes in an antigen-free environment, has been estimated and found to be about 7 days for virgin 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl (TNP)-reactive mouse B cells, and 2--3 times longer for TNP-primed B cells. Using allotype-congenic mice, lymph node cells were transferr...
