1969 D. C. Dumonde et al. in Nature 4 38/1In the guinea-pig these four phenomena are mediated by cell-free soluble factors, which are generated during interaction of sensitized lymphocytes with specific antigen, but which are expressed without reference to immunological specificity. The generic term ‘lymphokine’ is suggested to describe this group of biological activities.
1973 Ibid. 2 Mar. 22/2When T cells are activated by antigen, they proliferate..but they..do not become antibody-secreting cells. They do, however, secrete a variety of non-antigen⁓specific factors (‘lymphokines’) such as migration inhibition factors (MIF), chemotactic factors, cytotoxic factors and mitogenic factors, at least some of which presumably play a role in cell-mediated immune responses, for which T cells are primarily responsible.
