title: Ultralow doses of anti-idiotypic antibodies to human gamma-interferon: immunotropic properties.
abstract: We studied the effects of ultralow doses of anti-idiotypic antibodies to human gamma-interferon on humoral immune response in experimental animals immunized with a thymus-dependent antigen, delayed-type hypersensitivity, and phagocytic activity of neutrophils in the peritoneal exudate. This preparation stimulated the humoral immune response and activated phagocytosis, but had no effect on functional activity of T cells.
