title: [Immunoglobulin content in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in sarcoidosis].
abstract: The amount of albumins and immunoglobulins in the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid of sarcoidosis patients were measured and correlated with cellular activity parameters in sarcoidosis. It could be shown that IgG and IgA, related to albumin, were increased in comparison with serum while the IgM fraction was decreased. In general, the highest values of immunoglobulins were found in active sarcoidosis.
