Thymin, a purified polypeptide isolated from bovine thymus, was shown to induce the expression of differentiation antigens characteristic of thymocytes [TL and Thy-1 (theta)] when incubated in vitro with mouse bone marrow or spleen cells. This induction occurred in 5-10% of the cells from bone marrow after a 2-hr incubation with subnanogram concentrations of thymin. The induced cells expressed more TL and Thy-1 (theta) antigens than average normal thymocytes.
胸腺素是一种从牛胸腺中分离出来的纯化多肽,当与小鼠骨髓或脾细胞在体外孵育时,它能诱导胸腺细胞特有的分化抗原[TL和Thy-1(θ)]的表达。在与亚纳克浓度的胸腺素孵育2小时后,骨髓来源的细胞中有5%-10%发生了这种诱导。诱导后的细胞表达的TL和Thy-1(θ)抗原比正常胸腺细胞平均水平更多。
