At higher cell densities, DxS induces a suppression of the immune response as assessed by a declining frequency of expressed B cells. When T cells were decreased in number, the stimulating effect of DxS on T\u2010independent responses remained unaltered while the suppressive effect (dependent on cell density) was eliminated.<\/jats:p><jats:p>It is suggested that DxS lowers the threshold of activation for regulatory T cells, <jats:italic>i.e.<\/jats:italic> of cells which under standard <jats:italic>in vitro<\/jats:italic> conditions remain unactivated, and which in the presence of DxS become activated. We conclude that the regulatory cells are rare and that they are not present in most low cell density cultures.
