[Effect of concomitant pathology and radiation treatment on the immunity indices of patients with laryngeal cancer]. 1989

G A Bulbuk, and G A Tsybyrné, and L N Mazur, and V A Dariĭ

Humoral and cell-mediated immunity in laryngeal cancer patients was evaluated versus presence of concomitant pathology and previous irradiation. The actual T-lymphocyte level in the study group was shown to exceed that measured by reaction of spontaneous rosette formation using sheep erythrocytes. Concomitant pathology appeared to impair immune status. Distant gamma irradiation suppressed cell-mediated immunity boosting the humoral one. In vitro incubation of peripheral blood lymphocytes with levamisole and theophylline proved superior in immune status evaluation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007111 Immunity, Cellular Manifestations of the immune response which are mediated by antigen-sensitized T-lymphocytes via lymphokines or direct cytotoxicity. This takes place in the absence of circulating antibody or where antibody plays a subordinate role.

D007978 Levamisole An antihelminthic drug that has been tried experimentally in rheumatic disorders where it apparently restores the immune response by increasing macrophage chemotaxis and T-lymphocyte function. Paradoxically, this immune enhancement appears to be beneficial in rheumatoid arthritis where dermatitis, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia, and nausea and vomiting have been reported as side effects.
