Abstract
An immuno-fluorescent technique is described which permits the localization and the semi-quantitative evaluation of isoantigens. Studies of normal and tumor cells demonstrated that H-2 isoantigens are located in discrete areas on the cell surface. The thymus of 20-25-day-old mice contained approximately 85% lymphoid cells with a low isoantigen content. These cells represent thymus cortical lymphoid cells. Cortisol treatment of mice reduced the relative number of cells with low isoantigen content to 10%.
