Abstract
Human peripheral blood lymphocytes were labeled with [3H]uridine and separated into immunoglobulin (Ig)-positive-enriched and Ig-negative populations by rosetting and Ficoll sedimentation. The Ig-negative (T cell-rich) fraction was found to be more heavily labeled than the B cell-enriched population, in agreement with previous results in rats. Combined autoradiography and rosetting confirmed the differential uridine labeling of T and B cells. Incorporation of cytidine and adenosine by T and B cell-enriched populations showed similar but less dramatic differential labeling.
