Exposure to subcarcinogenic doses of ultraviolet (UV) radiation suppresses tumor immunity, thus permitting the emergence and growth of highly immunogenic skin cancers in mice. Sunscreens prevent UV carcinogenesis; however, there are conflicting reports regarding their ability to block UVinduced tumo
## Abstract Fluorescein (FITC)‐haptenated mouse spleen cells are capable of inducing a B cell immune response characterized by the production of antibodies directed against hapten‐altered self structures. The induction of this response is thymus‐independent and strictly dependent on the hapten conc
## Abstract Apoptosis is an important mechanism enabling the selection of the non‐self‐reactive T cell repertoire and for maintaining homeostasis in the immune system after it has expanded to combat infections. Highly activated, proliferating T cells become susceptible to apoptosis driven by a numb
