Svensk definition
Mätning av cellförmedlad immunitet genom hämning in vitro av antigenstimulerade leukocyters eller makrofagers vandring eller fagocytos. Specifika tester har utvecklats för beräkning av migrationshämni ngsfaktor, immunsvar på tumörassocierade antigen och den immunsuppressiva verkan av infektionsframkallande mikroorganismer.
Engelsk definition
Phenomenon of cell-mediated immunity measured by in vitro inhibition of the migration or phagocytosis of antigen-stimulated LEUKOCYTES or MACROPHAGES. Specific CELL MIGRATION ASSAYS have been developed to estimate levels of migration inhibitory factors, immune reactivity against tumor-associated antigens, and immunosuppressive effects of infectious microorganisms.
