  • Title: [Palatine tonsils and immunity. III. T- and B-lymphocytes in the palatine tonsils of patients with chronic tonsillitis].
    Author: Vizirenko LV, Vershigora AE.
    Journal: Zh Mikrobiol Epidemiol Immunobiol; 1975 Mar; 0(3):135-40. PubMed ID: 1092103.
    Abstract:
    Both B- and T-cells are contained in the palatine tonsils of patients suffering from chronic tonsillitis. The former respond by blast-transformation to the in vitro stimulation by the streptococcus and staphylococcus antigens and the latter--to PHA, and produce soluble substances inducing blast-transformation reaction of lymphoid cells of the palatine tonsils under the effect of streptococcus and staphylococcus antigens.
