Immune status in Crohn's disease. V. Decreased in vitro natural killer cell activity in peripheral blood.

abstract：:The kinetics of the cellular and humoral responses of 30 recipients of hepatitis B vaccine were studied. All individuals exerted an HBsAg blastogenic response sometime throughout the study period but the maximum response was detected on day 28 and 56. The removal of CD8+ cells enhanced significantly the HBsAg response...
