Frozen sections of chicken lymphoid organs were examined for lymphocyte surface antigens by antisera to T and B lymphocytes (ATS;ABS), and for the presence of immunoglobulin (Ig) G Fc and complement receptors (FcR;CR) by hemadsorption with sheep erythrocytes (E) coated with chicken IgG(EA), and E coated with rabbit IgG and chicken complement (EAC). In the spleen FcR positive cells were confined to the periellipsoidal sheaths and the germinal centers. CR positive cells were found in the same spleen areas, as well as in the medulla of bursal follicles. These lymphoid areas reacted strongly with ABS, but they also stained with neutral alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase, and phagocytosed carbon particles were found in the periellipsoidal sheaths. Furthermore, in vivo treatment with cyclophosphamide, which resulted in pronounced B-lymphocyte depletion, did not affect FcR activity, but reduced CR activity significantly. These data indicate that the FcR activity demonstrated in tissue sections is mainly confined to mononuclear phagocytes, while the CR positive cells are mainly B lymphocytes.
