Ontogeny of cell-mediated immunity. I. Early development of alloantigen- specific cytotoxic T-cell precursors in postnatal mice
Cytotoxic T-cell precursors have been shown to occur in spleens of 2-3- day-old mice. By 12 days after birth, the cytotoxic T-cell response of spleen cells to alloantigens has reached 23-32% of adult levels.
