Regional labeling of mice by injection of cytidine-3H ([3H]CR) into the footpad of the left hind leg was used to evaluate lymphocyte traffic from the left regional nodes to the right popliteal lymph node (PLN) within a 24-h period, with or without concomitant primary or secondary stimulation of the right PLN with fluid tetanus toxoid. Results indicate that 1) in the case of primary antigen injection the relative contribution of lymphocytes from the left regional nodes to the small lymphocyte population present in the stimulated right PLN 24 h after labeling was slightly, but not significantly, greater than in non-stimulated controls; 2) a booster injection of antigen into the right hind leg footpad resulted in a significantly smaller relative contribution of lymphocytes from the previously primed left regional nodes to the small lymphocyte population in the right PLN, 24 h after injection of [3H]CR and secondary stimulation, as compared with controls or animals given a primary stimulation to the receiver node; and 3) in contrast to controls and mice subjected to primary stimulation only, the right PLN 24 h after booster contained a significant number of large lymphoid cells which, or whose precursors, had migrated to this site from contralateral nodes within a day, possibly also in the form of small lymphocytes. These findings are discussed in relation to the problem of lymphocyte recruitment and divergent behavior of non-committed lymphocytes as compared with memory cells in the initial phase after primary or secondary antigenic stimulation.
