Naive B6 (H2b) mice received control diluent, G-CSF, or ProGP-1 as described in “Materials and methods.” Splenic CD4+ T cells were purified by magnetic separation or FACS (as described in “Materials and methods”) and stimulated in primary culture by plate-bound antibodies to CD3 and CD28 (both at 10 μg/mL). Results represent mean ± SE of triplicate wells.

P < .05 versus control T cells. Proliferative responses (×103) were measured by 3H incorporation. IFNγ (U/mL), IL-4 (pg/mL), and IL-10 (pg/mL) were determined in culture supernatants by ELISA.
