Abstract: | The inhibitory capacity of mastocytoma cell line P815 and its cultural supernatant (CS) was studied in the reaction of blast transformation (RBT) and mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC). An addition of both P815 cells and CS resulted in dose-dependent inhibition of lymphocyte proliferation in RBT and MLC. The treatment of DBA/2 spleen cells with CS for 2 h at 37 degrees C resulted in a significant decrease in proliferative activity and induction of supressor cells. |
