Abstract
The relative number of T[thymus-derived]/B [bone marrow-derived] lymphocytes and the response of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to PHA [phytohemagglutinin] in the migration inhibition test was studied in a group of patients with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome. The level of T lymphocytes and the response to PHA was decreased in patients, particularly those with frequent relapses. The possible implications of these findings for pathogenesis of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome is discussed.Keywords
