In vitro immunological studies in atopic and contact dermatitis.
Serum immunoglobulins, five lymphocyte markers and three mitogen assays were used in an investigation of 20 patients with atopic dermatitis. A slight impairment of the cell-mediated immunity was detected. Ten patients suffering from contact dermatitis had sub-normal lymphocyte reactivity.
