Functional responses after IL-12 stimulation of cytokine-primed T cells.
Activated T cells were primed with or without cytokines as indicated for 2 days. These cells were then washed and treated with or without IL-12 for 2 days. IFN-γ produced by activated cells was quantified by ELISA (A). All values represent net IFN-γ production measured by the difference between levels produced in the presence and absence of IL-12. T-cell proliferation (B) was quantified by measuring the incorporation of [3H]TdR. The fold proliferation compares values in T cells treated with IL-12 versus T cells without additional IL-12.
