Induction of leucocyte migration inhibitory factor (LIF) by stimulation with free hapten and water-insoluble epoxy resin. 1981

Y Nakano, and K Nakano, and I Hara

The indirect leucocyte migration inhibition test was applied to the contact sensitivity to a hapten (dinitrofluorobenzene, DNFB) and a water-insoluble epoxy resin (Araldite). Sensitized guinea-pig leucocytes were pulsed with DNFB, which was not conjugated to a carrier protein, or with Araldite which was made particulate by ultrasonication. When these pulsed leucocytes were incubated for 24 hr, they released significant amounts of leucocyte migration inhibitory factor (LIF). The optimal dose for pulse-stimulation was 10 microgram/ml. A correlation was observed between the degree of contact sensitivity and the production of LIF.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007961 Leukocyte Migration-Inhibitory Factors Protein factor(s) released by sensitized lymphocytes (and possibly other cells) that inhibit the movement of LEUKOCYTES, especially polymorphonuclear cells, away from their site of release. Assays for these factors are used as tests for cellular immunity. Two of the common assays are the LEUKOCYTE MIGRATION CAPILLARY TUBE TECHNIQUE (LMCT) and the LEUKOCYTE MIGRATION AGAROSE TEST (LMAT).
