Role of the CD5 molecule on TCR gammadelta T cell-mediated immune functions: development of germinal centers and chronic intestinal inflammation.

abstract：:A novel system to study the effects of co-cross-linking CD23/FceRII and sIg on murine B lymphocytes utilizes a highly multivalent form of anti-Ig prepared by covalently linking anti-Ig antibodies to a DNP-dextran backbone. CD23-sIg co-cross-linking is accomplished by the addition of DNP-specific monoclonal IgE. Previo...
