Abstract
The effect of streptolysin S on T and B human and mouse lymphocytes was studied. The dose-dependent inhibition of T cell rosette formation was observed, and this was accompanied by a dose-dependent cytotoxicity. The existence of a difference in the degree of susceptibility of T and B cells to the cytotoxic effect of streptolysin S is shown.
