Abstract
Los valores de linfocitos T de alta afinidad por los glóbulos rojos de carnero (linfocitos T activos) están significativamente disminuídos en pacientes con Bocio Tóxico Difuso (BTD), lo que sugiere una evidencia más, de alteración de la inmunidad mediada por células en esta enfermedad.
No existen diferencias en los valores de linfocitos T totales y linfocitos B entre personas normales y con BTD.
SUMMARY
Active T - lymphocyte values in patients with diffuse toxic goiter (Graves - Besedow)
The values of T - lymphocyte with high affinity for sheep red blood ells (active T-lymphocytes) are significantly decreased in patients with Difusse Toxic Goiter (DTG), suggesting once more the alterations in all - mediated in munity in this disease.
There are no differences between values of total T - lymphocytes and B - lymphocytes among normal person and those with DTB.
