Abstract excerpt
The T11 sheep erythrocyte binding glycoprotein [relative molecular mass (Mr)50,000(50K)] is expressed throughout human T-lymphocyte ontogeny and appears to play an important physiological role in T-cell activation. Thus, the treatment of T cells with certain monoclonal anti-T11 antibodies results in antigen-independent polyclonal T-cell activation as assessed by proliferation and lymphokine secretion. In...
