[Various indicators of cellular immunity in obesity. Effect of low-calorie diet].
The influence of obesity and a decrease of the body weight in the patients, treated with low-caloric diet, on several indices of cellular immunity has been studied. Absolute and relative T- and B-lymphocyte content, monocyte lysosome content and granulocyte phagocytic activity were examined in the peripheral blood of 27 obese patients and 30 normal subjects. Reversible inhibition of cellular immunity was revealed in the obese patients. The body weight lowering, which resulted from the treatment of obese patients with a low-caloric diet, promoted returning their immunity to normal.
