Studies have been performed in order to investigate the effects of catecholamines. histamine, peptide hormones and various other agents known to increase cellular adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) levels on the expression of Thy-1 and TL antigens on 14-day fetal thymic stem cells. It has been shown that the proportions of Thy-1 and TL positive cells, as detected by dye exclusion cytotoxicity tests, can be significantly increased by some of these agents and that these effects may be inhibited by beta adrenergic and H2 antagonists. The value of these tests as a means for studying normal thymic stem cell maturation and for investigating T cell deficiency is discussed.
