Lymphocyte subpopulations in the peripheral blood of patients with farmer's lung. 1976

D K Flaherty, and J E Surfus, and F Chmelik, and A Bryant, and H Dickie, and C E Reed, and J Rankin

The numbers of mononuclear cells having receptors for sheep red blood cells (T lymphocytes) or complement (B lymphocytes) in the peripheral blood of farmer's lung patients were determined. In patients recovering from a clinical episode of farmer's lung or exposed to moldy hay or fodder, both the percentage of T lymphocytes and the T lymphocytes per mm3 were reduced, whereas the number of B lymphocytes remained within normal limits. Farmer's lung patients having no exposure to moldy hay or fodder had T and B lymphocyte numbers similar to a normal population.

D005203 Farmer's Lung A form of alveolitis or pneumonitis due to an acquired hypersensitivity to inhaled antigens associated with farm environment. Antigens in the farm dust are commonly from bacteria actinomycetes (SACCHAROPOLYSPORA and THERMOACTINOMYCES), fungi, and animal proteins in the soil, straw, crops, pelts, serum, and excreta.
