  • Title: Lymphocyte subpopulations in uremics and in transplanted patients.
    Author: Krzymanski M, Quadracci L, Ringdén O, Lundgren G.
    Journal: Scand J Urol Nephrol; ; (29 Suppl):37-40. PubMed ID: 781816.
    Abstract:
    In 30 chronically uremics, 37 renal transplanted patients and 31 controls, the number of T- and B-cells was calculated as well as the lymphocyte response to the mitogens PHA, Con A and anti-B2m. In uremics the relative number of T-cells was normal, the number of B-cells was reduced and the response to mitogens was suppressed. During the early post transplantation period the relative number of both T- and B-cells was reduced as well as the mitogenic response. Following three months of successful transplantation the relative counts of T-cells and the response to mitogens returned to normal. The relative number of B-cells remained lowered however.
