Characterisation of collagen VI within the islet-exocrine interface of the human pancreas: implications for clinical islet isolation?

abstract：:The fate of cell surface I-Ak and H-2Kk antigens shed by murine spleen cells in culture was studied by incubation of nonlabeled spleen cells or splenic T or B cells with culture fluids containing shed radiolabeled alloantigens. Approximately 30 to 40% of the shed alloantigens could be absorbed by syngeneic or allogene...
