A rapid and reliable autoradiographic technique for plaque-forming cells (PFCs) using (14)C rather than tritiated thymidine is described. Its application to PFCs developing in vitro shows that (a) practically all PFCs derive from precursors dividing steadily during the culture period, (b) PFC precursors divide in the absence of T-cell helper function, and (c) at least some PFCs may continue to divide.
本文描述了一种使用¹⁴C而非氚标记胸腺嘧啶核苷的快速可靠的用于形成蚀斑细胞(PFC)的放射自显影技术。将其应用于体外发育的PFC表明:(a)实际上所有PFC均源自培养期间持续分裂的前体细胞;(b)PFC前体细胞在没有T细胞辅助功能的情况下进行分裂;(c)至少一些PFC可能会继续分裂。
