Tuftsin (an Ig-associated tetrapeptide) triggers the immunogenic function of macrophages: implications for activation of programmed cells.
The immunoglobulin heavy-chain-associated tetrapeptide, tuftsin (Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg), known for its phagocytosis-stimulating activity, was found to augment the antigen-specific, macrophage-dependent education of T lymphocytes. The investigation of stereospecific characteristics of the tetrapeptide, by...
