Antigen-independent adhesion of CD45RA (naive) and CD45RO (memory) CD4 T cells to B cells.: Int Immunol. 1992 Feb;4(2):191-6. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/92322589; Lecomte O; Fischer A; INSERM U 132, Hopital Necker-Enfants Malades, Paris, France.; We found that naive (CD45RA+) CD4 T cells have a lower capacity of adhesion to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) immortalized B cells than memory (CD45RO+) CD4 T cells, as judged by conjugate formation. This would appear to be due to differences in the expression of adhesion molecules [lymphocyte function-associated antigen (L
