AB  - Chemiluminescent responses of peripheral blood lymphocytes were measured in 
      patients with carcinomas and healthy donors. The intensity of lymphocyte 
      chemiluminescence (Ly-CL) in 54 preoperative patients was significantly lower 
      than that in 97 healthy donors (P less than 0.05). Compared to that before 
      treatment, the Ly-CL intensity in 14 patients after radiotherapy was decreased (P 
      less than 0.05). However, Ly-CL intensity in 12 patients after 6-8 days of 
      thymosin therapy was significantly increased (P less than 0.05), and exceeded 
      that of healthy donors (P less than 0.01). These data suggest that Ly-CL 
      measurements may become a new method for monitoring lymphocyte activity or 
      function, and evaluating therapeutic effectiveness in cancer patients.
