Fluorescence-polarization changes in mononuclear blood leucocytes after PHA incubation: differences in cells from patients with and without neoplasia.

In 32 healthy blood donors, 20 patients with histologically verified cancer and 18 patients with non-neoplastic diseases, the fluorescence polarization changes of fluorescein samples incorporated in mononuclear leucotyes were measured after incubation with PHA. The leucocytes of healthy persons, and...

description In 32 healthy blood donors, 20 patients with histologically verified cancer and 18 patients with non-neoplastic diseases, the fluorescence polarization changes of fluorescein samples incorporated in mononuclear leucotyes were measured after incubation with PHA. The leucocytes of healthy persons, and 16/18 persons with non-neoplastic diseases, responded with a decrease in the degree of fluorescence polarization by about 20% from that in non-PHA-stimulated cells. In 19/20 patients with a variety of malignant tumours, the leucotyes did not respond to PHA stimulation with such a decrease. The exceptions among the patients with neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases are considered, and may not be "false-negative" or "false-positive" respectively, but indicative of a particular situation in that disease. The biophysical mechanisms underlying the observed changes remain to be investigated. IMAGES:
