  • Title: [Effect of vitamin E on T and B lymphocyte numbers in the peripheral blood and various indicators of nonspecific immunity].
    Author: Pletsityĭ KD, Sukhikh GT, Davydova TV.
    Journal: Vopr Pitan; 1984; (4):42-4. PubMed ID: 6333106.
    Abstract:
    It has been shown in experiments on mice, guinea-pigs and rabbits that additional administration to the animals of vitamin E provokes an increase in the content of T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood without exerting any effect on the content of B lymphocytes. Such an addition also markedly stimulates natural killers of spleen lymphocytes. The complementary, lysozyme and nonspecific bactericidal activity of blood serum remains unchanged in this case.
