  • Title: [Effect of immunotherapy on lymphocyte function in acute lymphatic leukemia].
    Author: Aurich G.
    Journal: Folia Haematol Int Mag Klin Morphol Blutforsch; 1976; 103(6):817-25. PubMed ID: 64422.
    Abstract:
    During the immunotherapy children suffered from acute leukaemias will have a significantly higher transformation rate than at the beginning of the immunotherapy. This may be explained by an increase of the immunological competence as well as by an enhanced mobilization of lymphatic cells. Leukaemic blasts used for immunoinduction-therapy will have no higher transformation rates as antigens than those cells never contacted by children. During the immunotherapy an increase of transformation rates may be observed after administering unspecific antigens and in mixed cultures. In a retrospective manner the indication for immunotherapy may be checked again in children with immunotherapy on the basis of the clinical course and evaluation of the cellular immunoreaction.
