Twenty-seven patients with chronic obstructive bronchitis and 47 patients with chronic non-obstructive bronchitis were subjected to subpopulation analysis of peripheral blood immunocompetent cells. Statistically significant changes in the content of T mu and T gamma cells, killer and suppressor activity of lymphocytes were discovered in patients with chronic bronchitis. One of the immunological differences between chronic obstructive and chronic non-obstructive bronchitis lies in the activity of Con A-induced suppressors, which is appreciably lowered in patients with chronic obstructive bronchitis.

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.
