Studies on delayed hypersensitivity of patients with Hodgkin's disease during remission.
Abstract
The studies of skin sensitivity, the reactivity to intradermally transferred lymphocytes and lymphocytic transformation in vitro showed that delayed hypersensitivity had been slightly impaired in patients with Hodgkin's disease during long time remission. The regression of the disease favoured the recovery of the lymphocytic functions and the delayed type immune reactions associated with them. These data suggest that the enhancement of the delayed hypersensitivity of the tumour defence respectively could promote the treatment or prevention of the disease.
