title: Expression of CD95 on peripheral blood lymphocytes in patients with autoimmune diseases and neoplasms.
abstract: CD95 expression on peripheral blood lymphocytes in patients with neoplasms was higher than in patients with autoimmune disorders. Apoptosis of T cells increased during tumor growth. The data suggest that neoplasms are accompanied by more severe immune dysfunction than autoimmune disorders.
