Abstract

They are no more complicated than effector systems Abbreviations used in this chapter : ABA, azobenzenearsonate; Ag, antigen; Con A, concanavalin A; DNP, dinitrophenyl; FcR, receptor for Fc of immunoglobulin; GT, GAT, copolymers of glutamic acid and tyrosine and glutamic acid, tyrosine, and alanine; IL-2, interleukin 2; KLH, keyhole limpet hemocyanin; MHC, major histocompatibility complex; LDH, lactate dehydrogenase; NP, 4-hydroxy-3-nitrophenylacetyl; PSA, picrylsulfonic acid, 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid; T-acc, T-acceptor cell; Th, T-helper cell; ThF, antigen­ specific T-helper factor; TMA, phenyltrimethylammonium; TNP, trinitrophenyl or picryl; Ts, T-suppressor cell; TsF, T-suppressor factor, antigen-specific unless otherwise stated; Ts­ alI, TsF-alI, T-suppressor cells and factors alIerent, which only act when given early in the immune response.
