Role of epitope density in the induction of tolerance and immunity with thymus-independent antigens. III. Interaction of epitope density and receptor avidity.

The induction of B cell tolerance to 2,4-dinitrophenyl conjugates of polysaccharide antigens (levan or dextran) was studied in mice primed with keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) or 2,4,6-trinitrophenylated KLH. The relationship of the epitope density of the tolerogen with avidity of B cell receptors (...
