We have examined the kinetics and specificity of secondary in vitro mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLR). With limited numbers of primed responder cells (PRC) in the presence of "excess antigen" it was possible to obtain proliferative responses that were proportional to the number of PRC initially placed in culture. The responding cells, after an initial lag period, seem to grow exponentially until day 3 of culture. The responses of PRC (with the strain combinations and culture conditions described in this report) seemed to be directed toward stimulator cell determinants whose expression was determined by genes in the I region of the MHC. In one case, the relevant incompatibilities could be further restricted to the I-A region. Although PRC responded best to stimulator cells sharing the I region with the priming stimulator cell, apparent cross-reactivity could be observed by restimulating PRC with stimulator cells that did not carry the MHC haplotype of the priming stimulator cell. The rate of proliferation (measured as 3H-thymidine incorporation) in these apparent cross-reactions was reproducible and comparable to the rate observed in response to the priming stimulator cell. It was possible, therefore, to estimate the proportion of PRC that reacted in the presence of third party stimulator cells compared to the response of these PRC to the priming stimulator cells. We have estimated that the response of A (B6) PRC against H-2d and H-2s haplotype stimulator cells is about half of the response of these PRC to H-2b, the priming stimulator cell.
