Abstract
The study of B lymphocyte differentiation is greatly facilitated by the use of suitable monoclonal antibodies (MAb’s). For mice and men a variety of MAb’s binding to cell surface determinants of B lineage cells has been described (1). However, as yet almost no B lineage specific MAb’s have been described for the rat. Since this animal appears very appropiate for studies of early phases of B lymphocyte differentiation (2) as well as late phases, in particular with respect to marginal zone cells (3), we produced MAb’s against surface antigens of rat B lineage cells.
