Humoral immune response in aged humans: suppressor effect of monocytes on spontaneous plaque forming cell generation.

Abstract

In 50 old donors antibody synthesis has been detected using a protein A haemolytic plaque assay. Data provide evidence that the plaque forming cell (PFC) capacity of aged peripheral mononuclear cells (PBMC) is significantly depressed (0 . 01 greater than P greater than 0 . 001) in comparison to controls. Additionally, suppression is mediated by adherent cells, since monocyte depleted lymphocytes regain the ability of generating spontaneous plaques. The inhibitory effect of monocytes seems to be prostaglandin-dependent, since indomethacin pre-treated PBMC give rise to a normal number of plaques when compared to young mononuclear cells.
