  • Absence of unsaturated fatty acid synthesis in murine T lymphocytes. 

    Buttke, Thomas M.; Van Cleave, Steven; Steelman, Linda; McCubrey, James A. (East Carolina University, 1989-08)
    Stearic acid is toxic for T lymphocytes in vitro but has little effect on B lymphocytes. To investigate the molecular basis for this difference, purified murine T and B lymphocytes were compared for their abilities to ...
  • Molecular basis for the immunosuppressive action of stearic acid on T cells. 

    Tebbey, P. W.; Buttke, Thomas M. (East Carolina University, 1990-07)
    Studies were performed to determine the mechanism by which stearic acid (18: 0) selectively inhibits T-dependent immune responses in vitro. Incubation of mitogen-activated B and T cells with 18:0 resulted in dissimilar ...
