Abstract excerpt
The CD2 glycoprotein has been implicated in both positive and negative regulation of T-cell mitogenesis. To study the involvement of CD2 in T-lymphocyte development and immune responses, we have analyzed two lines of CD2-null mice, each expressing a distinct class I major histocompatibility compl...
