[Immunological reactivity study of patients with uterine trophoblastic tumors]. 1979

T M Grigorova, and T A Stas, and Z G Kadagidze, and V L Kovaleva

By using DNCB delayed hypersensitivity test, the reaction of spontaneous rosette formation (RSRF) and the reaction of inhibition of leucocytes migration the authors examined 55 female patients with different forms of trophoblastic tumors of the uterus and 15 females following the removal of the mole without any signs of the disease concerned. Forty three patients showed a positive DNCB test, 93 of them were completely cured, a negative test was noted in 12 patients, only a 50% cure being observed. RSRF indicated the increased level of rosette-forming cells from 4,7--28% up to 10,3--73% in a successful treatment and its decrease down to 0--5% in the tumor progression, except 7 patients showing reduced RFC levels after the recovery. The reaction of leucocytes migration inhibition has revealed a considerable depression of leucocytes migration (MI--from 0.35 to 0.78) in 18 of 25 patients with manifestations of an acute tumor process (72%). In 7 cases no inhibition was noted, in 6--the treatment being insignificantly effective or time-consuming. In 21 (47.8%) of 27 patients without any signs of the affection there was no inhibitory effect. Leucocytes of healthy donors failed to respond to the tumor extract in either of 24 cases.

D007962 Leukocytes White blood cells. These include granular leukocytes (BASOPHILS; EOSINOPHILS; and NEUTROPHILS) as well as non-granular leukocytes (LYMPHOCYTES and MONOCYTES). Blood Cells, White,Blood Corpuscles, White,White Blood Cells,White Blood Corpuscles,Blood Cell, White,Blood Corpuscle, White,Corpuscle, White Blood,Corpuscles, White Blood,Leukocyte,White Blood Cell,White Blood Corpuscle
D008297 Male Males
D011247 Pregnancy The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH. Gestation,Pregnancies
D002464 Cell Migration Inhibition Phenomenon of cell-mediated immunity measured by in vitro inhibition of the migration or phagocytosis of antigen-stimulated LEUKOCYTES or MACROPHAGES. Specific CELL MIGRATION ASSAYS have been developed to estimate levels of migration inhibitory factors, immune reactivity against tumor-associated antigens, and immunosuppressive effects of infectious microorganisms. Chemotaxis Inhibition,Chemotaxis Inhibitions,Inhibition, Chemotaxis,Inhibitions, Chemotaxis
D004137 Dinitrochlorobenzene A skin irritant that may cause dermatitis of both primary and allergic types. Contact sensitization with DNCB has been used as a measure of cellular immunity. DNCB is also used as a reagent for the detection and determination of pyridine compounds. 1-Chloro-2,4-Dinitrobenzene,2,4-Dinitrochlorobenzene,Benzene, 1-Chloro-2,4-Dinitro-,Chlorodinitrobenzene,DNCB,1 Chloro 2,4 Dinitrobenzene,2,4 Dinitrochlorobenzene
D005260 Female Females
D006801 Humans Members of the species Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D000937 Antigen-Antibody Reactions The processes triggered by interactions of ANTIBODIES with their ANTIGENS. Antigen Antibody Reactions,Antigen-Antibody Reaction,Reaction, Antigen-Antibody,Reactions, Antigen-Antibody
D012397 Rosette Formation The in vitro formation of clusters consisting of a cell (usually a lymphocyte) surrounded by antigenic cells or antigen-bearing particles (usually erythrocytes, which may or may not be coated with antibody or antibody and complement). The rosette-forming cell may be an antibody-forming cell, a memory cell, a T-cell, a cell bearing surface cytophilic antibodies, or a monocyte possessing Fc receptors. Rosette formation can be used to identify specific populations of these cells. Immunocytoadherence,Formation, Rosette,Formations, Rosette,Immunocytoadherences,Rosette Formations
