Description
Summary:Abstract. We have studied some features of immune system in children with common episodes of acute respiratory infections accompanied by lymphadenopathies (LAP). Among this cohort of the patients, a decrease in general immune reactions was revealed, accomplished by polyclonal activation of distinct lymphocyte subpopulations. Certain immune changes have been discerned in children with common infections accompanied by a LAP syndrome, such as an increased ratios of T- and B-lymphocytes carrying CD69 and CD25 activation molecules, a CD71 marker typical for proliferating cells, NKT-cells positive for CD3, CD56, CD8 with high cytokine-producing potential, as well as increased rates of spontaneous blast transformation of lymphocytes, both in course of the disease, and following recovery of the children.
