title: T-lymphocyte subpopulations in multiple sclerosis--do they help to judge immunosuppressive therapy?
abstract: T-cell subpopulations were tested in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients before and after cyclophosphamide (n = 38) and corticotropin (n = 37) treatment and physiotherapy (n = 30). There were no specific changes of subset ratios immediately after immunosuppressive treatment. However, T-cell subpopulations showed great day-to-day variations in MS patients.
