Abstract
Thymocytes from 1-month-old NZB/W mice were separated at unit gravity and then studied for helper or suppressor effects in a GVH assay. Thymocytes with a settling rate of 4 to 6 mm/hr suppressed but did not help. In contrast, help but no suppression characterized thymocytes settling at 6 to 10 mm/hr. Thus helper and suppressor thymocytes in this GVH assay were physically separated.
