We initiated a pilot study to evaluate the functions of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and also to analyze the behavior of lymphocyte subpopulations in patients with different clinical forms of amoebiasis. We found significant differences in many aspects as NBT reduction, Candida digestion, CD4/CD8 relation, Ia expression. We suggest a wider investigation of the mechanism of cell mediated immunity in patients with amoebiasis.
