  • Title: Rosette-forming T lymphocytes and cell-mediated immunity in malnutrition.
    Author: Chandra RK.
    Journal: Br Med J; 1974 Sep 07; 3(5931):608-9. PubMed ID: 4214461.
    Abstract:
    The frequency of rosette-forming thymus-dependent lymphocytes was reduced in the peripheral blood of malnourished infants and children. The reduced frequency parallelled the impairment of delayed hypersensitivity response to 2, 4-dinitrochlorobenzene and decreased DNA synthesis by lymphocytes challenged with phytohaemagglutinin. The abnormalities were reversed on nutritional improvement.
