Abstract excerpt
The effect of a supernatant (SN-A) obtained from PMA-stimulated IL-2 producing EL-4 cells on cytotoxic cell induction in thymocyte and splenocyte cultures was evaluated. SN-A, but not recombinant IL-2 alone, induced cytotoxic cell differentiation in thymus cell cultures, thus indicating that factors distinct from IL-2 are required for effector cell generation. INF-gamma takes part in the process, and Ia+...
