[The changes of suppressor T-cells function in patients with RAU].
    Zhonghua kou qiang yi xue za zhi = Zhonghua kouqiang yixue zazhi = Chinese journal of stomatology, 1998, Volume: 33, Issue:2

    To study the change of suppressor T-cell function in patients with RAU.. Samples of 12 patients with RAU active phase were studied by it suppressor assay.. The T-cell suppress rates at ConA 1,2,4 and 8 mg/L were 60%, 40%, 27% and 20% respectively, and were evidently lower when compared with normal controls' 72%, 56%, 41% and 34% (P < 0.05).. The suppressor T-cell function may be depressed in RAU patients.

Lymphocyte function in patients with recurrent aphthous ulcers.
    Zhonghua Minguo wei sheng wu ji mian yi xue za zhi = Chinese journal of microbiology and immunology, 1987, Volume: 20, Issue:3

    Lymphocyte proliferation (LP) responses to mitogens: phytohemagglutinin (PHA), concanavalin A (ConA) and pokeweed mitogens (PWM) were studied in 17 patients with recurrent aphthous ulcers (RAU) of minor type (MiAU) and 20 age/sex-matched healthy subjects. RAU patients elicited normal T-cell and B-cell responses to mitogens in comparison with healthy subjects. Proliferative responses were neither enhanced during active episodes of oral ulceration nor suppressed during periods of remission. It seems unlikely that non-specific lymphocyte dysfunction plays a major role in the pathogenesis of RAU.
