[Effect of levamisole on the activity of the blood T-lymphocytes and of factors they produce in patients with laryngeal cancer].

The functional activity of T-lymphocytes was studied in 20 donors and in 59 patients with laryngeal tumours, stages II to IV. A considerable decrease in the activity of T-lymphocytes was observed in patients with laryngeal cancer, stages III and IV. Levamisole increased the functional activity of T-lymphocytes in vitro. It was found that spontaneous rosette-formation, PHA-induced lymphocyte proliferation and gamma-interferon production increased while the activity of suppressor T-lymphocytes induced by concanavalin A decreased.

[Palatine tonsils and immunity. VI. Effect of thymosin and palatine tonsil extract on the immunologic reactivity of neonatally thymectomized and intact mice].

Experiments were conducted on Wistar rats, intact and neonatally thymectomized CBA mice; a study was made of the immunological activity of the extracts of the thymus and the palatine tonsils of calves obtained by the method of Goldstein et al (1966). The extract of the palatine tonsils obtained proved to contain a small amount of thymosin at whose expense an insignificant restoration of immunological reactivity occurs in its administration neonatally to thymectomized mice.
