Antibody responses to T cell-dependent antigens are reduced during vitamin A (VA) deficiency and restored by retinoids. To test whether retinoic acid (RA) and polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (PIC), an inducer of interferons, can increase specific antibody production, VA-deficient rats were treated with all-trans-RA, PIG, or both at the time of primary immunization with tetanus toroid. VA-deficient rats produced low primary and secondary antitetanus IgG responses (P
