Abstract

In the coeliac lymph node of IgG1 hypergammaglobulinaemic BALB/c mice infected with the intestinal nematode, Nematospiroides dubius, the bulk of in vitro production of biosynthetically-labelled IgG1 appeared to be concentrated in the cortical regions of the node and not the medulla. This was demonstrated by incubating segments of the grossly enlarged lymph node with [3H]leucine and assessing [3H]IgG1 production by a protein A-Sepharose binding method.
