Abstract: | The response to staphylococcal protein A (SPA) of unfractionated, T-cell-enriched (TCE), and T-cell-depleted (TCD) populations of both adult mononuclear cells (AMC) and cord blood mononuclear cells (CBMC) was studied. Adult unfractionated and TCE populations formed more T-lymphocyte colonies than did similar populations of CBMC. However, TCD populations of CBMC formed B-lymphocyte colonies at least as well as did the TCD population of AMC. These results suggest that B cells from CBMC may be more mature than CBMC T-cell populations. |
