The influence of uremic sera on the blastic response of lymphocyte of healthy subjects to nonspecific mitogens (PHA, Con A, PWM) in 3-day culture was investigated. Sera were obtained from 19 patients with renal insufficiency, among them 3 groups were distinguished: terminal renal insufficiency and acute renal insufficiency, both treated by hemodialysis, and severe chronic renal insufficiency treated conservatively. Generally, the statistically significant inhibitory influence of uremic sera on the blastic transformation values of lymphocytes of healthy subjects stimulated with nonspecific mitogens was found. There were no significant changes in inhibitory activity of sera obtained before and after hemodialysis. Inhibitory properties of uremic sera were similar in regard to blastic transformations stimulated with all mitogens used. The studies on the influence of the experimental stationary dialysis in vitro on the inhibition of blastic transformation by the uremic sera showed that under the specific conditions of diffusion, blastic transformation inhibitors passed through dialysis membrane and were removed from the sera. Among all tested sera there were only 2 which did not lower the blastic transformation values. The fact that they were obtained from the chronically dialyzed patients with the longest period of dialysotherapy supported the above observation. |
