Total lymphocytes number, proportions of T lymphocyte subset, nonspecific suppressor activity induced by Con A and T-lymphocytes ability for IL-2 production were assessed. Group of 46 patients with intrinsic asthma (24 females and 22 males) including 20 asthmatics treated during 5-7 years with glucocorticosteroids were studied. Control group consisted of 12 healthy persons. Statistically significant reduction of total T cells, T-suppressor and T-helper subpopulations, ability for IL-2 production and nonspecific suppressor activity was found. |
