Abstract
Thyβ1.1 and Thyβ1 xenoantigenic determinants were detected at the cell surface of many rat bone marrow cells. The absorptive capacity of bone marrow cells was 6β10 % of that of thymocytes for Thyβ1 antigenic determinants, and 30β45 % of rat bone marrow cells were specifically labeled with antiβThyβ1 antibody as detected by autoradiography. Thus, while mice and rats are similar in having large amounts of Thyβ1 in brain and thymocytes, they differ in that the rat lacks the antigen in most peripheral T cells and expresses it in a large number of bone marrow cells; the opposite is true in the mouse.

Objective. Bone marrow stromal cell antigen I (BST-1) is a novel glycosyl phosphatidylinositolanchored ectoenzyme, which is overexpressed on bone marrow stromal and synovial cell lines derived from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). To investigate the pathophysiologic roles of BST-I in RA, we
