Abstract
Differences may exist in composition of peripheral blood lymphocytes between males and females. Affinity chromatography of human peripheral mononuclear cells on insolubilized histamine together with staining by fluoresceinated histamine-rabbit serum albumin (HRSA) revealed that males possess a significantly higher proportion of mononuclear cells which bind to HRSA. These results are reflected in sex-related differences in proliferative responses of the HRSA-non-adherent mononuclear cell population to T [thymus-derived] cell-dependent mitogens, antigens and allogeneic mononuclear cells.This publication has 37 references indexed in Scilit:
