Recovery of B6 Ly5.1 T cells, 1 week after transfer into various irradiated hosts. Host mice were injected simultaneously with 1 × 106 CD8+ and 2 × 106 CD4+ LN T cells from Ly5.1+ B6 donors. Results represent the absolute numbers (×10−5) of CD8+ and CD4+ donor T cells recovered in the different hosts in a single experiment. Similar results were obtained in three other experiments (37).
