Abstract

Spleen cells from mice of 6 different strains were stimulated with pokeweed mitogen and the amount of γ interferon in the supernatants was measured. Three strains (BALB/c, A/J and C3H/He) were found to be low producers (less than 50 units) whereas three other strains (C57BL6, CBA and AKR) were high producers (50 to 500 units). F~1~ hybrids between a low producer strain (A/J) and a high producer strain (C57BL6) were found to produce low amounts of interferon. Nude mice did not produce detectable amounts of pokeweed mitogen‐induced γ interferon. The level of production of this T cell lymphokine is thus under genetic control.
