Resting T-cell clones were stimulated with plate-bound anti-CD3 and soluble anti-CD28 monoclonal antibodies. After 48 hours, cytokine concentrations in the supernatants were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Unstimulated T cells did not produce detectable amounts of cytokines.

IFN-γ indicates interferon γ; IL-4, interleukin 4; Th, T helper; Tc, T cytotoxic; and ND, not detectable.
