[Migration inhibition test with thyroid membrane antigen in Graves-Basedow disease and nodular goiter].

The evaluation of the migration inhibition test with thyroid membrane antigen was carried out in 20 patients with Graves' disease, 13 patients with neutral nodular goiter and 13 healthy subjects. A significant inhibition of migration by thyroid antigen as compared to the control group was demonstrated only in the patients with Graves' disease (the value of the migration index was 0.57 +/- 0.07). The respective value was 0.79 +/- 0.16 in patients with nodular goiter and 0.85 +/- 0.11 in healthy subjects. The results obtained indicate the practical value of the migration inhibition test in diagnosing the thyroid diseases having an autoimmune background.

[Autoimmune thyroid diseases--cell mediated immunity].

Some aspects of cellular immunity of autoimmune thyroid diseases are reviewed. Changes in number subpopulations and functions of T-lymphocytes in Graves' and Hashimoto's diseases with special attention to leucocyte migration inhibition test are described. Correlation between cellular and humoral immune factors is discussed.

[IgE-containing immune complexes in bronchial asthma].

Level of circulating immunological complexes and their immunoglobulin content have been determined in 36 asthmatic patients, including 15 patients with atopic asthma and 21 patients with infectious asthma. A technique of staphylococcal protein A binding has shown, that the level of the circulating immunological complexes is increased in patients with infectious bronchial asthma. An amount of IgE in these complexes has been increased in both atopic and infectious bronchial asthma. However, a level of IgE-containing immunological complexes has been higher in the atopic asthma, then that in infectious form of the disease. An increased IgA content in the immunological complexes has been noted in the infectious asthma.
