  • Title: The 1977 Bela Schick Memorial Lecture: disorders of suppressor cells in the pathogenesis of immunodeficiency, autoimmune and allergic diseases: human disease associated with disorders of an immunological breaking system.
    Author: Waldmann TA.
    Journal: Ann Allergy; 1977 Aug; 39(2):79-86. PubMed ID: 329718.
    Abstract:
    A series of suppressor cell systems regulate virtually all immunological processes. Disorders of suppressor cells have been identified, including an increased number of activated suppressor T cells in some patients with hypogammaglobulinemia or with selective IgA deficiency. At the other end of the spectrum of immunological response a reduction in suppressor T cell activity has been implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune and possibly allergic diseases.
