The significance of vaginal hormonal cytology and the leukocyte adherence inhibition test for the detection of malignancy.

Raised leukocyte adherence inhibition (LAI) test values were found for 25 women with endometrial carcinoma and 12 women with benign hyperplastic endometrium. Of 42 patients with oligomenorrheic and polymenorrheic disturbances of the menstrual cycle and whose hyperestrogenism was assessed by cytologic indices (i.e.

Fröhlich electromagnetic radiation from human leukocytes: implications for leukocyte adherence inhibition test.

The Fröhlich coherent vibrations may be a source of an electromagnetic field generated by living cells in the frequency range from 0.1 to 10 THz. The electromagnetic field may cause the time dependent orientation (i.

Correlation of extracts obtained by high efficiency gel chromatography of lactic dehydrogenase virus infected mouse serum and cytosol from human tumors using leukocyte adherence inhibition assay.

Immunochemically active fractions were obtained using Separon Hema-300-glc(R) from serum of lactic dehydrogenase virus (LDV) infected mice and from homogenates of human tumors. The mixture of proteins of tumorous origin from the cytosol giving a positive reaction in the leukocyte adherence inhibition (LAI) test was found in the same fractions showing maximum of absorbance at 340 nm in the spectrophotometer and a corresponding peak in the refractometer. Analogous peaks were not proved in material obtained from healthy controls, but they were found in some human placentas and fetal organs.

Immunological response of patients with tumors of the urogenital tract: a follow-up of cell-mediated antitumor immunity by the LAI test.

Antigen-induced inhibition of leukocyte adherence is a suitable method providing information on immunological response of the tumor bearers. Leukocytes from patients' blood were tested by an in vitro method to detect cell-mediated antitumor immunity. Positive reactions of leukocytes to the specific antigen were found in carcinoma of the uterine cervix, vulva and ovary in 13 patients.
