    Journal: Eksp Med Morfol; 1978; 17(1):50-4. PubMed ID: 639749.
    Abstract:
    The authors carried out clincial and immunomorphologic studies on 15 patients with chronic hepatitis and liver cirrhosis with unknown etiology. The presence of specific sensibilization of lymphocytes of the patients to liver tissue was examined by blast-transformation test. For this purpose they compared immunomorphologic response to lymphocytes in culture from peripheral blood to liver and renal antigen, using parallel procedure with FHA and cultures, growing spontaneously. Ten clinically healthy and 12 persons with renal polycystosis were examined as controls. The results showed an increased immune response to lymphocytes of the patient with liver cirrhosis to liver antigen as well as to culture, developing spontaneously, which suggested that autoimmune reaction with specific tendency to antigens of liver developed in these persons.
