与正常人比较,瘤型麻风病人的唾液免疫球旦白显著低落。作为对照组的营养不良者和口腔恶性肿瘤者,其唾液的IgA水平则升高。由此得到一个提示:伴随着瘤型麻风病人的T细胞功能的损坏,与其唾液免疫球旦白的低水平并无关连。 Compared with normal people, leprosy patients with saliva immunoglobulin was significantly lower. As a control group of malnourished and oral malignancies, the saliva IgA levels are elevated. This led to a hint that the damage to T-cell function associated with leprosy patients was not associated with the low level of salivary immunoglobulin.
