Abstract excerpt
Macrophages exert a major effect in the stimulation of lymphocytes and the modulation of immunological responses. To determine the presence and phenotypic distribution of the resident cells of the mononuclear phagocyte system in submandibular glands, frozen sections were prepared from five normal rats, and from six rats treated with 20 mg/kg isoproterenol/day for 10 days. A panel of six monoclonal antibodies was...
