Abstract

Polyadenylic acid when complexed with polyuridylic acid, exerted an adjuvant effect in short-term human leukocyte cultures activated by purified protein derivative of tuberculin or in mixed leukocyte interactions. In contrast, stimulation of DNA synthesis in leukocytes by phytohemagglutinin was depressed by these homoribopolymers.
