[Immune reactions in breast cancer patients (author's transl)]. 1977

S I Sergejew, and W W Gorodilowa, and A P Baschenowa, and E W Mandrik, and I W Kasjanow

Immunological reactivity was studied in 76 breast cancer patients taking into consideration the extent of disease and mode of treatment. The following tests were used: delayed hypersensitivity skin reaction after application of tissue antigens from mammary cancer and embryonal tissues prepared by Westphal's method (Silber's modification), tuberculin and 2,4-dinitrochlorbenzene (DCNB). Humoral immune reactivity was evaluated with a mikroprecipitation test using antigens from fetal, tumorous and spleen cells. Tests were performed before and after treatment. The results confirm that positive skin reactions are found mostly in stage I and II. In advanced stages depression of all immune reactions was seen. Some changes of immune reactivity depend on the mode of treatment. Immune competence was not depressed by surgical treatment and the most distinct immune depression was provoked by cytostatic chemotherapy. Our observations suggest that the cytostatics Thiophosphamid, Cyclophosphamid and Fluorouracil are immundepressants.

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.

D003520 Cyclophosphamide Precursor of an alkylating nitrogen mustard antineoplastic and immunosuppressive agent that must be activated in the LIVER to form the active aldophosphamide. It has been used in the treatment of LYMPHOMA and LEUKEMIA. Its side effect, ALOPECIA, has been used for defleecing sheep. Cyclophosphamide may also cause sterility, birth defects, mutations, and cancer.
