IPC stimulate autologous T cells to proliferate. B cells, IPC, MDC, and monocytes were compared as antigen-presenting cells in an autologous mixed leukocyte reaction. Ten thousand antigen-presenting cells/well were cocultured for 6 days with 100,000 autologous CD45RA⁺ CD4⁺ T cells/well. T-cell proliferation was assessed by [³H]thymidine incorporation. Error bars represent standard deviations from triplicate wells. Data shown are representative of three experiments.
