The infection of isolated B and T cells by a murine leukemia virus (Friend) MuLV-F) was studied both in vitro and in vivo with an implanted diffusion chamber system. Lymphocytes were obtained from pools of normal spleen cells by filtration of the cell suspension through a nylon-wool column. The purity for both Ig positive and theta-positive cells varied between 85% and 90% in the B-cell and T-cell fractions; both lymphocyte fractions responded very well to stimulation with their respective specific polyclonal mitogens, bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and concanavalin A (Con A). Lymphocytes were infected by incubating pelleted cells in 2-6 x 10(4) FFU MuLV for 1 h at 4 degrees C and were then cultured for 5-10 days. Cells releasing infectious MuLV were enumerated as infectious centers (IC). IC were really detectable in the cultures of infected B-cells but none were found in the T-cell cultures. Addition of LPS to the culture medium increased the number of IC in B-cell fractions up to 1,000-fold. Furthermore, in T-cell cultures with LPS, IC also appeared in number which approximately correlated with the contaminating Ig+ cells of the T-cell fraction. In contrast, Con A had no consistent effect on the infection of either B or T cells. In the absence of MuLV-F, mitogenic stimulation alone did not elicit any endogenous IC. In subsequent experiments, purified lymphocytes were infected in diffusion chambers in vivo. The number of IC in infected B cells increased 1,000-fold as compared to infection in tissue culture. The peak of infection at 10 days was followed by a slight decline. Infected cells were also found in diffusion chambers containing T-cell fractions; these IC had very similar kinetics to those in B-cell-containing chambers, but their number was 10 times lower, suggesting that the infected cells were B cells, which comprised about 10% of the T-cell fraction. The virus-related antigens were detectable by immunofluorescence on the membrane of cells recovered from B-cell-bearing chambers but not on cells from T-cell-bearing chambers.
