The increment of TLA concentration in culture medium increased the cytotoxic activity. Treatment of effector cells; spleen cells from TLA-sensitized mice incubated with TLA, with anti-asialo GM1 or anti-Thy-1 plus complement inhibited the cytotoxic activity of effector cells, whereas treatment with anti-mouse Lyt-2.2 serum plus complement had no effect on the cytotoxic activity. Treatment of spleen cells from TLA-sensitized mice with anti-asialo GM1 and/or anti-Thy-1 plus complement inhibited cytotoxic activities of effector cells. These results suggested that spleen bells sensitized with TLA both in vivo and in vitro were asialo GM1 positive and Thy-1 positive; and the majority of cytotoxic cells induced by TLA were similar to lymphokine-activated killer (LAK)cells induced by IL-2.}, pages = {87--93}, title = {Characteristics of Cytotoxic Cells Induced by Toxoplasma Lysate Antigen in Mouse Spleen}, volume = {54}, year = {1992} }
