[Modulation of granulocyte phagocytosis].

Non-specific complications are encountered relatively often in patients with below normal granulocytic phagocytosis rates. We tested vitamin C, transfer factor, gamma-globulin, BCG, PPD, UV irradiation of the subject's blood (UVB) and hyaluronidase with the aim of stimulating granulocytic phagocytosis with rice starch in autologous serum. In our experiments, only the addition of hyaluronidase caused any increase in phagocytotic activity. The in vitro experiments with hyaluronidase yielded promising results and will be followed up since they may be relevant to practical questions.

[Modification of granulocyte function by lymphocytes].

Results of investigations are presented which are to show the impact of lymphocytes on granulocytophagocytosis . Lymphocytes in leukocyte suspensions are damaged by irradiation and by anti-human lymphocyte globulin. A slightly negative impairment of the phagocytic granulocyte function seems to be detectable. These findings are not unequivocal and not significant.

[Modification of granulocyte phagocytosis by extracts from tumor antigens].

The results with the granulocyte phagocytosis test adding various tumor antigen preparations are represented. In comparison with clinically healthy probands and patients having benign diseases there could not be proved any malignancy and organ specificity of granulocyte phagocytosis in patients with malignant tumors of different stages and various localization of organs.

[In-vitro studies of granulocyte phagocytosis in patients with malignant tumors].

Investigations are presented about granulocyte phagocytosis with rice starch in patients with clinically curable malignant tumours and with those treated palliatively. A significantly reduced granulocyte efficiency of phagocytosis indicating a bad prognosis of the disease can be found in those patients being in the advanced tumour stage.

[The value of the granulocyte phagocytic test in oncology follow-up care].

This work represents the results of the granulocyte phagocytic test in tumor effected individuals by observing the course over a period up to three years. In tumor patients, which could be operated radically, a normal phagocytosis activity of granulocytes indicates the undisturbed course. In patients with progressive carcinoma growth the average of phagocytosis is lowered obviously. These results revealed information for the prognosis of malignant diseases and the nonspecific accompanying diseases.

[The normal state of granulocyte phagocytosis].

There are demonstrated results of the granulocyte phagocytosis with rice starch with healthy patients. The early phase of the phagocytosis seems to be more sensitive on changes of the unspecific defence. There were not found any significant differences between men and women. Patients who are older than 75 years have not a significant lower phagocytosis than younger ones.
