JY cells were stimulated with PMA (200 ng/ml) for 18 h and the degree of aggregation was scored as described in Materials and Methods. MAbs (10 μg/ml) or NIF (1 μM) were added. Aggregation scores of JY cells from five separate fields within 1-μl well were obtained. Values represent an average of aggregation scores from triplicate microtiter wells.
