[Cellular immunity in Sjögren's syndrom (author's transl)]
Summary
This study investigated cellular immunity in Sjögren's syndrome patients using lacrimal and salivary gland antigens. Immunosuppressive treatment modulated lymphocyte blasttransformation and leukocyte migration, indicating treatment efficacy.
Area of Science:
- Immunology
- Autoimmune Diseases
Background:
- Sjögren's syndrome is an autoimmune disorder affecting lacrimal and salivary glands.
- Cellular immune responses play a role in the pathogenesis of Sjögren's syndrome.
