Effect of immuno-modulating agents on murine IL-2 production.

abstract：:Spleen cells of C57BL/6 mice injected with corticosterone were compared with cells from mice injected with saline in their ability to respond to the mitogens PHA, Con A, and LPS. Both unseparated cells and cells separated into T-enriched and B-enriched fractions were studied. After either seven daily injections or fou...
