    Notes: When human peripheral him id B cells are cultured for 6 days with the T cell-dependent peptide antigen ovalbumin (OA) in the presence of antigen-presenting cells and helper T cells, plaque-forming cells (PFC) are generated. These OA-induced PFC differ from the conventional high-rate antibody-secreting PFC formed after stimulation of B cells with recall antigens (e.g. tetanus toxoid) in that they secrete antibody at a very low level. Previous studies have shown that OA-induced PFC are B lymphocytes in an early activation stale rather than cells that have differentiated into plasmablasts. The apparent arrest in the maturation of OA-induced PFC in an early activation phase can he overcome by simultaneous stimulation with interleukin 2 (1L-2) and gamma interferon (IFN-γ). The isotype of the OA-specific antibodies secreted, however, are only of the IgM class, demonstrating that an isotype switch docs not occur.

    Notes: By means of a panel of monoclonal antibodies it is demonstrated that, in cultures of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) with the T-cell dependent (TD) antigen ovalbumin (OA), responding B ceils are activated from the resting Mate The differentiation of the activated B cells to high rate-secreting plasma blasts, however, is attested in an early activation phase, in which they can be detected at low rate-secreting plaque-forming cell. The arrest does not occur when stimulation with OA occurs in the presence of antigen-nonspecific activation and maturation factors, which are provided in the culture by the anamnestic response to the TD antigen tetanus toxoid.
