Fig. 2.
Immune responses of 129Ola × C57BL/6J F3 CD38−/− mice (open symbols) and CD38+/+ littermate controls (closed symbols) to TD antigens. Titers of hapten-specific IgG1 serum antibody at various time points after a primary (left), and secondary (right) immunization with 10 μg alum-precipitated TNP5-KLH (A), 10 μg alum-precipitated NP20-CG (B), or 10 μg CFA-precipitated TNP5-KLH (C). Arrows indicate the time of the primary and secondary immunizations. The data shown are representative of one of eight TNP5-KLH in alum immunization experiments, one of two NP20-CG in alum immunization experiments, and one of three TNP5-KLH in CFA immunization experiments, in which each experiment included five to eight mice per group.
