[T and B lymphocytes in peripheral blood of subjects receiving atropine].

Using the rosette test E and EAC and determining presence of immunoglobulins on the surface of cells T and B lymphocyte counts were calculated in peripheral blood of 10 healthy subjects receiving atropine for some days. Parallely the activity of T cells was evaluated on the basis of blastic transformation degree after PHA stimulation. No differences were observed in the counts of T and B lymphocytes in peripheral blood before and during atropine administration. T lymphocytes showed, however, functional defects manifested with impairment of PHA-stimulated transformation.
