Abstract

Sera from 16 patients with mycosis fungoides at various stages of the disease were investigated for the presence of a leukocyte-migration inhibitory factor. The agarose gel techinque with human peripheral blood leukocytes as migrating indicator cells was used for the purpose. The migration inhibitory effect of patients sera, pooled AB-sera and sera from control persons was tested on peripheral blood leukocytes from patients and controls. Also upconcentrated sera were used. The presence of substances with migration inhibitory effect in serum from patients with mycosis fungoides could not be demonstrated. The significance of these findings is discussed.
