Suppressor activity of T cells bearing Fc receptors for IgG on lymphoid colony formation.

abstract：:A synthetic peptide conjugate based on the N-terminal sequence of a 10 000 MW immunosuppressive serum protein (reOLT 4) was used to immunize female Lewis rats prior to mating, in order to determine whether blocking this protein had an effect on pregnancy. The N-terminal sequence of (reOLT 4) has close sequence homolog...
