## Abstract Protein A from __Staphylococcus aureus__ (SpA) is known to bind to the Fc region of most mammalian IgG classes. In the present article data are presented showing that SpA is a highly efficient mitogen for human peripheral B lymphocytes, with no detectable activity for T lymphocytes. In
## Abstract Staphylococcus aureus, strain Cowan I, contains a cell‐wall substance, protein A, which combines with the Fc part of IgG in most mammalian species. It can therefore be used as a solid‐phase immunoabsorbant for elimination of the reacting immunoglobulins. Since it has been shown that Cow
Isolated rat liver perfusates contain a substance which inhibits 3H-thymidine uptake by phytohemagglutinin-stimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes in a dose-dependent, noncytotoxic fashion. Suppression is not due to interference of lymphocyte-phytohemagglutinin interaction or dilution of the t
