Abstract

THE peripheral blood lymphocytes of man respond to a variety of stimulants in tissue culture, and undergo changes in structure including enlargement and mitosis. Non-specific stimuli such as phytohaemagglutinin, as well as specific antigens such as tuberculin, to which the cell donor has been sensitized, may evoke these changes1,2.
