Enhancement of terminal B lymphocyte differentiation in vitro by fibroblast-like stromal cells from human spleen.

abstract：:As we approach the centenary of Elie Metchnikoff's Nobel Prize (1908), it is opportune to reflect upon the history of macrophage immunobiology, take stock of current knowledge and anticipate questions for the future. Starting from his appreciation of phagocytosis as an important determinant of host defence against inf...
