title: In vitro immune parameters in relation to clinical course in transitional cell carcinoma.
abstract: Longitudinal experiments were performed in which lymphocytes from patients were compared with simultaneously studied normals. Patient lymphocytes were examined for their ability to function as stimulator and responder cells in a one-way MLC. Additionally, lymphocyte mitogenic response to PHA and Con A were examined. We observed changes in these parameters that could be correlated with the clinical course of the patients.
