  • Title: [Effect of thymosin on the rosette-forming capacity of peripheral blood lymphocytes and healthy subjects].
    Author: Loseva TM.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1982; 82(5):67-70. PubMed ID: 6980545.
    Abstract:
    It has been found that the blood of schizophrenic patients contains much more thymosine-sensitive lymphocytes than the blood of healthy subjects. Thymosine produces a regulatory effect on the changed receptor activity of the T-cells revealed in the reaction of spontaneous rosette formation. The disturbances of the T-lymphocyte membrane activity that take place in schizophrenic patients can be associated with the changes of the thymus hormonal function occurring in that disease.
