although splenocytes from immunized p mice demonstrated deficiencies in production of macrophage-activating lymphokine ( s ) in response to either antigenic or mitogenic stimulation , other aspects of t lymphocyte responsiveness including blastogenesis , production of interleukin 2 , interleukin 3 and macrophage chemotactic factor , as well as helper cell function for secondary plaque-forming cell response to a t-dependent antigen and allospecific cytolytic t cell reactivity , appeared to be comparable with those of c57bl/6 mice , a strain that is protected by vaccination against s. mansoni .
