After iodine oxidation, biopterin, 6-hydroxymethylpterin, and 6-formylpterin were identified in mouse spleen lymphocytes by means of reverse-phase HPLC, Crithidia assay, and oxidative degradation. Concanavalin A activation induces a 30-fold increase in the pteridine amounts; biopterin as well as the sum
