The characteristics of the responder and stimulating cells involved in migration inhibition factor (MIF) production in primary 'one-way' mouse mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLR) were analyzed by using an indirect agarose droplet assay. T-lymphocytes are mainly responsible for MIF release, as shown by pretreatment with anti-Thy 1.2 serum plus complement or purification over a nylon wool column. On the other hand, macrophages and B-lymphocytes appear to be optimal stimulating cells. T-lymphocytes as stimulating cells induce MIF release, but to a much lesser degree than macrophages and B-lymphocytes. The kinetics of MIF production in MLR is related to the kind of stimulating cells employed. Lastly, the ability to release MIF is already present in the spleen of 1- to 2-week-old mice, lasts until 20 weeks of age and declines to undetectable levels at 50 weeks of age.
通过间接琼脂糖滴试验分析了参与原发性“单向”小鼠混合淋巴细胞反应(MLR)中迁移抑制因子(MIF)产生的应答细胞和刺激细胞的特征。抗Thy 1.2血清加补体预处理或通过尼龙毛柱纯化表明,T淋巴细胞主要负责MIF的释放。另一方面,巨噬细胞和B淋巴细胞似乎是最佳刺激细胞。T淋巴细胞作为刺激细胞可诱导MIF释放,但程度远低于巨噬细胞和B淋巴细胞。MLR中MIF产生的动力学与所用刺激细胞的种类有关。最后,释放MIF的能力在1至2周龄小鼠的脾脏中就已存在,持续到20周龄,并在50周龄时降至无法检测的水平。
