Variations in T cell subsets during hyposensitization of grass-sensitive patients with formaldehyde modified extracts: allergoids.
In atopic patients with clinical symptoms of hay fever, changes in T gamma and T mu cells were evaluated during desensitization. A significant increase in T mu and overall in T gamma cells was noted. These results suggested that T cell defect could be restored by desensitization treatment.
