title: [The effect of hormonal therapy on the functioning of phagocytosing blood cells in patients with sarcoidosis].
abstract: It was shown that the functional state of neutrophils and monocytes in the peripheral blood of patients with sarcoidosis lowered which was evident from their lower absorbing capacity, lower numbers of the EAC-rosette-forming cells and higher metabolic activity. Prior prednisolone therapy influenced the functional state of neutrophils: the cell ability to reduce NBT and the activity of acid phosphatase decreased while the lysozyme levels and absorption capacity increased. The functional state of monocytes was in general the same in the patients treated and untreated with the glucocorticoid.
