T2 lymphocyte Electron Micrograph
FIg. 13. Spleen cell (10 days after alloantigenic immunization with DBA/2 mastocytoma) labeled with aMSLA detected by the bridge technique with phage T4. Some of the phage heads are sectioned tangentially and therefore barely visible.
This large blast-like cell, classified as T2 lymphocyte, is mostly characterized by its very large content in polyribosomes. X 15,000.
