Abstract
Dibutyryl-cyclic adenosine 3'5'-monophosphate (cAMP) added to mouse spleen cell cultures under serum free conditions inhibited the stimulation of [3H]thymidine incorporation induced by T-cell mitogens much more than the one induced by B-cell mitogens. The inhibition was most impressive with phytohaemagglutinin, followed by concanavalin A, pokeweed mitogen and the specific antigen Keyhole limpet haemocyanin (KLH). The response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was clearly less susceptible to suppression and the effect on the stimulation induced by trypsin and suramin, both B-cell mitogens, was marginal. Similar results were obtained by addition of isoproterenol or therophyllin to the cultures.Entities:
