Ontogeny of mouse B lymphocytes and inactivation by antigen of early B lymphocytes. [PDF]
Taking advantage of recent findings about membrane fluidity, we have studied and compared the biosynthetic capacities of fetal or neonatal mouse B (bone-marrow derived) lymphocytes (until 10 days after birth) and adult B lymphocytes. Although both early and adult lymphocytes can synthesize surface immunoglobulins, they have a different physiological ...
