The antagonist peptide NP34 stimulates the production of an increased number of mature F5 thymocytes in F5/NP FTOC. F5/NP and F5 FTOC were cultured in the presence of 10 μM NP34 (○) or 10 μM GAG (▵) peptides for 10 days. Thymocytes were harvested and stained for CD4, CD8, Vβ11, and HSA molecules. (A) Each symbol in the graph represents the absolute number of CD8+CD4−HSAlo thymocytes generated from an individual FTOC. Similar data were obtained from analysis of individual thymic lobes in six independent experiments. (B) Data from analysis of FTOC pools in nine independent experiments is shown. Each symbol represents the absolute number of CD8+CD4−HSAlo thymocytes per thymic lobe from a pool of 12–39 F5/NP and 5–20 F5 FTOC.
