DNFB contact sensitivity (CS) in BALB/c and C3H/He mice: requirement for early-occurring, early-acting, antigen-specific, CS-initiating cells with an unusual phenotype (Thy-1+, CD5+, CD3-, CD4-, CD8-, sIg-, B220+, MHC class II-, CD23+, IL-2R-, IL-3R+, Mel-14-, Pgp-1+, J11d+, MAC-1+, LFA-1+, and Fc gamma RII+).

Abstract excerpt
Immunization of mice for contact sensitivity induces two different antigen-specific Thy-1+ cell activities that are required to act in sequence for elicitation of contact sensitivity. In this study, 2,4-dinitro-1-fluorobenzene contact sensitivity responses in BALB/c and C3H/He mice demonstrated the importance of early-acting and antigen-specific contact sensitivity-initiating cells to recruit the classical,...
