Abstract

The passive transfer of delayed contact sensitivity to dinitrophenyl can be specifically inhibited by brief treatment of lymph node cells (LNC) from sensitized guinea-pigs with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (DNFB). Analysis of KC1 extracts of LNC previously treated with (3H)DNFB, using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, revealed a peak of radioactivity present in both sensitive and normal cell extracts as well as a peak found only in sensitive cell extracts. Cell-free extracts appeared capable of transmitting delayed-onset skin reactivity to non-sensitized recipients.
