A spontaneous BALB/c B lymphocyte leukemia could be stimulated in vitro by the polyclonal B cell activator lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and the conditions for activation were studied. Spleen cells or peripheral blood lymphocytes from tumor-bearing animals responded by increased DNA synthesis and the peak of activation occurred earlier than with normal mouse spleen cells. Tumor cells harvested from the spleen, but not from the peripheral blood, could be induced by LPS to secrete IgM. Direct demonstration that the response was due to tumor cell activation and not that of contaminating normal B lymphocytes was provided by karyotype analysis and by immunoprecipitation, which showed the restriction of light chains on secreted IgM molecules to the lambda isotype.
一种自发的BALB/c B淋巴细胞白血病可在体外被多克隆B细胞激活剂脂多糖(LPS)刺激,并对激活条件进行了研究。荷瘤动物的脾细胞或外周血淋巴细胞通过增加DNA合成做出反应,且激活峰值比正常小鼠脾细胞出现得更早。从脾脏而非外周血中收获的肿瘤细胞可被LPS诱导分泌IgM。核型分析和免疫沉淀直接证明了该反应是由于肿瘤细胞激活而非污染的正常B淋巴细胞激活所致,免疫沉淀显示分泌的IgM分子上的轻链限于λ同种型。
