Immunosuppression and alterations of T-lymphocyte subpopulations after rubella vaccination.
Lymphocyte stimulation tests and determinations of T-lymphocyte subpopulations were undertaken in 11 subjects before and after rubella vaccination and in 11 controls. The lymphocyte stimulation response to phytohemagglutinin was suppressed 7 to 10 days after vaccination. The proportion of T lymphocytes with receptors for the Fc part of immunoglobulin G increased after vaccination, whereas there was no significant change in the proportion of T lymphocytes with immunoglobulin M-Fc receptors.
