Abstract excerpt
The ability of nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice to mount a cellular immune response to the secretory granule protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP), phogrin was evaluated by immunization of 8- to 12-week-old animals with recombinant phogrin in complete Freund's adjuvant. Draining lymph nodes displayed a robust proliferative response to the protein, as did derived T-cell lines and clones. Ten clones obtained by limiting...
