Because of the potential for the elimination of lymphocytes through anti-lymphocytotoxic antibodies we examined individual sera of patients infected with falciparum or vivax malaria for the presence of antibodies against normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells. In assays done at 15 degrees C, 95% of the P. falciparum patients and 98% of the P. vivax patients showed evidence for antibody activity. Activity at 37 degrees C was significantly less than that at 15 degrees C. These studies suggest that infection with malaria induces anti-lymphocytotoxic antibodies which are predominantly cold-reactive. It is possible that this phenomenon plays a role in modulating the immune response of patients toward malaria.
由于抗淋巴细胞毒性抗体有清除淋巴细胞的可能性,我们检测了感染恶性疟或间日疟的患者个体血清中是否存在抗正常外周血单核细胞的抗体。在15℃进行的检测中,95%的恶性疟患者和98%的间日疟患者显示出抗体活性的证据。37℃时的活性明显低于15℃时的活性。这些研究表明,疟疾感染可诱导主要为冷反应性的抗淋巴细胞毒性抗体。这种现象可能在调节患者对疟疾的免疫反应中起作用。
