Abstract
The initial events in the induction of an immune response are poorly understood but it is generally believed that a response is initiated when antigens react with receptors located on the surface of lymphoid cells. It is also believed that these receptors are immunoglobulin molecules and recent work suggests that they may be IgM molecules [1], However the precise location and distribution of these receptor sites is not clear.
