The pan-T cell antigen CD5 has been shown to delineate two different mouse B cell subsets, originating from distinct progenitors. In man, on average, 30% of the tonsillar B cell pool expresses this antigen. In the present report, a detailed comparison of the CD5+ and CD5- B cell response to cytokines, following activation via surface immunoglobulins (sIg) or CD40 antigen, was undertaken. CD5+ B cells were...
