L3T4+ but not LYT2+ T-helper cells are required for in vitro maturation of in vivo primed T cells in the cytotoxic response to MHC class I disparate cells following footpad immunization.

abstract：:Autoimmunity in disease is driven by autoantigen. Cell surface molecules may stimulate autoreactive T-helpers if class II MHC is expressed; special factors may predispose to the ease of class II induction. Soluble autoantigens may be focused by primed B cells and processed for presentation to T cells. Autoantigenicity...
