abstract：:We examine whether B cell lines enriched for DNA specificity from either autoimmune (BWF1) or normal mice (Balb/c) can be rendered unresponsive to autoantigen in terms of the specific suppression of direct antibody-forming cells to DNA. These B cell lines were both Lyt-1 positive and negative. Preincubation with oligo...
