Abstract excerpt
Emu-bcl-2 transgenic and littermate control BALB/c and SJL mice were immunized in the front footpads with trinitrophenylated Brucella abortus and the germinal center (GC) response in draining brachial lymph nodes was studied by staining with peanut agglutinin peroxidase and methyl green. Although the GCs induced were not larger in transgenic than in control young mice, there was a significant increase in the...
