IFN-γ production by thymocytes from FTOC in response to stimulation with antigenic peptide
| FTOC | Treatment | IFN-γ (pg/ml)* |
|---|---|---|
| F5/NP | NP34 | 167 ± 8 |
| F5/NP | GAG | — |
| F5 | NP34 | 1574 ± 26 |
| F5 | GAG | 1770 ± 34 |

Data show IFN-γ produced by thymocytes, from pools of 12 NP34- or GAG-treated FTOC, after stimulation for 2 days with APC and 1 μM NP68. Data shown are mean values and standard deviations of triplicate wells. IFN-γ was not detected (<20 pg/ml) in cultures of thymocytes from GAG-treated F5/NP FTOC (−) or when thymocytes were cultured with APC in the absence of NP68. Similar data were obtained from five independent experiments.
