Abstract

The murine lymphokine B-cell stimulatory factor 1 (BSF-1) has been described previously in terms of its action on B lymphocytes. We now provide evidence that BSF-1 is also responsible for two additional biological activities. The first of these is the stimulation or maintenance of a state of activation in mouse T-cell lines. The second activity is the increase in the proliferative rate of certain mast cell lines costimulated with interleukin 3. The T-cell and mast cell activities are mediated by purified BSF-1 and copurify with BSF-1 from supernatants of certain T-cell lines. Each of these activities is inhibited by monoclonal anti-BSF-1 but not by monoclonal anti-interleukin 2 antibody. The antibody inhibition results also indicate that BSF-1 is the major or only source of these two activities in the activated T-cell supernatants that we have tested.

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.
