Proliferation responses of the patient's PBMNC

Stimulation	Normal control (c.p.m.)	Patient (c.p.m.)
(–)	1080 ± 15	1250 ± 12
PHA	39780 ± 785	1578 ± 25
PMA + ionomycin	62570 ± 1428	47850 ± 875
Anti-CD3	33150 ± 658	1625 ± 22
Ovalbumin	NT	1440 ± 87
Ovomucoid	NT	1329 ± 54

The patient's PBMNC were stimulated with PHA (5 µg/ml), PMA (10 ng/ml) and ionomycin (1 µg/ml), biotinylated anti-CD3 (100 ng/ml) plus streptavidin, ovalbumin (25 µg/ml), or ovomucoid (25 µg/ml) for 3 days. Cell proliferation was assessed by incorporation of 3H-thymidine. Each value represents the mean value for three experiments ±SEM. NT, not tested.
