Abstract excerpt
This study evaluates the cellular crossreactivity among DR11, DR13, and DR8 molecules using TLC reagents generated in reciprocal priming combinations where the responder and stimulator cells express different microvariants of DR11. The large majority of T lymphocyte clones (TLC) derived from such stimulation detect not only the product of the specific DR11 allele expressed by the stimulator but also detect...
