Abstract
Using a technique for combined autoradiography and immunoperoxidase staining, we studied the incorporation of 3H-Uridine and 3H-Leucine into T and B lymphocytes of rats and mice. While in mouse both T and B cells were clearly labeled by incorporation of 3H-Uridine, a portion of rat T cells remained unlabeled. Furthermore, the majority of rat B cells was not labeled. In contrast, mouse T and B cells as well as rat T and B cells could be labeled with 3H-Leucine to a comparable degree.
