“…Mononudear phagocytes are required for T-cell proliferative responses to Con A. This phenomenon has been noted in the mouse (Habu and Raff, 1977;Satoh et al, 1980), rat (Munthe-Kass, 1980), rabbit (Schuyler and Todd, 1980), and man (Raff et al, 1978). Similarly, the T-cell lymphoproliferative responses to PHA exhibit a mononudear-phagocyte dependence in mice Habu and Raff, 1977;Satoh et al, 1980) and guinea pigs (Gorenberg and Daniele, 1978;Rogoff and Lipsky, 1979).…”
