title: Modulatory effects of autologous plasma on functional activity of human immunocompetent cells.
abstract: Blast transformation of peripheral blood lymphocytes stimulated with phytohemagglutinin and concanavalin A was studied in children with pyelonephritis and glomerulonephritis. Activity of natural killer cells from children with pyelonephritis was estimated before and after treatment with 50% autologous plasma. The autologous plasma modulated blast transformation of lymphocytes and activity of natural killer cells, which depended on the stage of diseases.
