Outgrowth of B cells in EBV-infected CBMC cultures. The outgrowth of B cells was detected by thymidine incorporation of the 12-day-old cultures. 3H-thymidine was present during the final 14 hours. The cultures initiated with the indicated cell numbers were cultured (A) without (□), or with Trx80 (▦), PSK (▨), or Trx80 + PSK (▪). (B) Cultures without (□), or with Trx80 (▦), IL-2 alone (▨), or Trx80 + IL-2 (▪). The results represent the mean ± SEM of 3 independent experiments. *P < .05 and **P < .01 compared with untreated cultures.
