Summary

Human lymphocytes stimulated in vitro by PHA or PWM incorporate3H-CdR into DNA, but less well than3H-TdR. More3H-CdR is incorporated in populations enriched for T cells. No3H-CdR is used by cells stimulated by lipopolysaccharides under circumstances in which3H-TdR is incorporated. We conclude that human T cells and B cells differ in their ability to use3H-CdR.
