  • Title: [Comparative study on lymphocyte stimulation by PHA and bacterial endotoxins, particularly in malignant tumor and allergy patients].
    Author: Wulf E, Schmidt J.
    Journal: Allerg Immunol (Leipz); 1976; 22(1):87-92. PubMed ID: 135504.
    Abstract:
    In a group of 37 tumor patients with predominantly advanced disease, LPS stimulation (LPS of Sh. sonnei and Sh. flexneri) resulted in a significant increase of the transformation rates caused, most probably, by the high proportion of B cells. On the other hand, allergics (drug allergies) did not differ from controls. It seems possible that B cell stimulation by bacterial endotoxins can be used for the assessment of the reactivity of the organism.
