title: [Lymphocyte response of blast transformation and some parameters of hormonal status in patients with type II diabetes mellitus].
abstract: Tests were conducted to analyze a blastogenic response of lymphocytes to phytohemagglutinin (PHA) in autoserum and bovine serum and the hormone level of blood of the second-type diabetes patients. The results indicate that there is a positive correlation between a blastogenic response to PHA in the autoserum medium on the one hand and the T4 level and insulin on the other hand. There is a negative correlation between the first factor and the glycemic index and the duration of disease. There is no correlation between a mitogenic response and the examinees' age. The blood insulin level also correlates with a mitogenic response of lymphocytes in bovine serum. The examination of patients in the compensation stage suggests a negative correlation between a cortisol level and the stimulation index logarithm of a mitogenic response in bovine serum. This correlation did not exist in cases of decompensated diabetes.
