T lymphocyte mobility: defects and effects of ascorbic acid, histamine and complexed IgG.
T lymphocyte mobility is low in patients with low neutrophil mobility. Thymocytes move comparably with normal mature T lymphocytes. Histamine accelerates T lymphocyte mobility in healthy subjects, patients with defective lymphocyte mobility and thymocytes. Ascorbic acid increases lymphocyte mobility of healthy subjects and thymocytes. Inhibition of mobility of T- or Tmu-depleted T lymphocytes by complexed IgG casts doubt on previous reports that the T gamma cells do not move.
