Immune response to primary immunization with brucella antigen in mycosis fungoides.

The immune response to primary immunization with brucella antigen was studied in 8 patients with mycosis fungoides and 11 controls. The development of as well cellular as humoral hypersensitivity to brucella antigen was followed by in vitro techniques. Both, patients with mycosis fungoides and controls were studied for previously acquired delayed hypersensitivity to tuberculin by skin test. The distribution of B and T cells was encountered among the patients. Previously acquired cellular immunity was found equal in the two groups, however, induction of cellular hypersensitivity to brucella antigen was found depressed in mycosis fungoides patients compared with the controls. Also the humoral response to brucella antigen could seem depressed, only one of seven patients with mycosis fungoides had a positive titer, while seven of eleven controls had positive titres following vaccination; but the difference between the two groups was not significant.

In vitro parameters of cell-mediated immune reactions in healthy individuals following immune-stimulation attempts with levamisole.

In vitro parameters of cellular immune reactions were followed by 10 healthy individuals during administration of levamisole. Leucocyte migration tests, lymphocyte transformation tests and ATP-ase activity of peripheral blood lymphocytes were investigated. Levamisole did not influence resting human lymphocytes of the stimulation response of lymphocytes. The metabolic activity of lymphocytes expressed by their ATP-ase activity was not significantly changed after levamisole administration.

T- and B-cells and IgE in mycosis fungoides.

The role of T- and B-lymphocytes and serum IgE was studied in 22 patients with mycosis fungoides. The distribution of B-cells in peripheral blood was normal, while the mean percentage of T-cells was significantly lower than in 14 healthy controls. Four patients with mycosis fungoides in stages I to IV had a highly elevated serum IgE, while serum IgE in remaining patients was slightly elevated, normal, or subnormal. The mean serum IgE level was not significantly elevated. Our results tend to show that a reduced ability to react with cellular immunity may be an important factor in mycosis fungoides. This may have therapeutic aspects.
