据外电报道美国波士顿消息:研究人员发现,严重麻风病患者的体内有过多的抑制机体免疫应答的细胞和几乎没有抗病功能的细胞。纽约洛克菲勒大学的Z Cohn认为,这些发现几乎对所有的寄生虫性和细菌性感染均适用。研究人员测试了布拉齐尔和纽约市一些麻风病人皮肤溃疡的标本。他们发现,严重型和轻型麻风病患者体内的辅助T淋巴细胞和抑制T淋巴细胞的比例有明显的差异。严重型麻风病患者的抑制细胞比辅助细胞多,而在轻型病例中,此比例正好相反。
According to foreign reports Boston, USA: Researchers found that patients with severe leprosy have excessive cells that suppress the body’s immune response and cells that have almost no disease-fighting function. Z Cohn, of Rockefeller University in New York, believes these findings are applicable to almost all parasitic and bacterial infections. Researchers tested samples of skin ulcers in some leprosy in Bratislava and New York City. They found that there was a clear difference in the proportions of helper T lymphocytes and T-lymphocytes in patients with severe and mild leprosy. Patients with severe leprosy had more suppressor cells than helper cells, whereas in the case of mild cases, the proportion was the opposite.
