Antigen presentation and tumor cytotoxicity by interferon‐γ‐treated microglial cells
Abstract
In this study microglial cells isolated from brain cell cultures of newborn mice were characterized and investigated for morphology, their responses to growth factors and their functional properties. The microglial cells were phagocytic, contained nonspecific esterase activity and expressed Fc (IgG 1/2b) and type‐3 complement receptors. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that in analogy to brain tissue two types of microglial cells are present in the cultures: the ameboid and the ramified type which both display similar appearance by transmission electron microscopy. Interleukin 3 and the granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor were potent growth factors for the cultured microglial cells. The cells were negative for class II antigens (Ia) of the major histocompatibility antigen complex. However, upon treatment with interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ) microglial cells became Ia+ and functioned as antigen‐presenting cells when tested on ovalbumin‐specific Ia‐restricted helper T cells. Furthermore, microglial cells exposed to IFN‐γ and endotoxin developed tumor cell cytotoxicity and produced tumor necrosis factor α. Taken together, microglial cells share the characteristics of cells of the macrophage lineage.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
