title: Prostate carcinoma: mitogenic stimulation of lymphocytes with phytohemagglutinin.
abstract: Lymphocyte transformation in response to mitogenic stimulation with PHA was studied in 46 patients with carcinoma of the prostate who have been followed for more than 3 years. This was related to clinical stage and histologic grade to form a prognostic index to forecast the natural history of this disease.
