In patients with viral and bacterial infectious mononucleosis during the acute period of disease and clinical convalescence blood content of CD72(+)and CD16(+)lymphocytes increased compared to normal. The count of CD8(+)cells increased in viral mononucleosis during convalescence and these changes persist in delayed periods after convalescence. In bacterial mononucleosis the content of CD72(+)lymphocytes return normal 18 months after convalescence.
