Subpopulations of human lymphocytes were tested for their capacity to kill mumps virus-infected target cells in a 51-chromium release asaay. Using two different cell fractionation techniques, lymphocytes were fractionated into T cell-enriched (primarily T cells) and T cell-depleted (primarily B cells) subpopulations. Filtration of lymphocytes through columns coated with human immunoglobulin and rabbit anti-human-immunoglobulin (Ig-anti-Ig) rendered the resulting T-cell preparation inactive as effector cells against target cells carrying mumps virus antigens. In the second technique, lymphocytes were fractionated by centrifugation into two fractions according to their ability to form spontaneous rosettes with sheep erythrocytes (E). The E-rosette-forming population (primarily T cells) was shown to lack cytotoxic activity against mumps virus-infected target cells. This activity was present in the nonrosetting population. The results suggest that the effector cells involved in this cytotoxic system are of a non-T variety.
