Abstract
Immunosuppressive properties of alpha1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) isolate d from normal (n-AGP) and abortive (a-AGP) human blood and also from a scitic fluid of patients with stomach cancer (c-AGP) as well as their molecular forms differing in glycosylation were studied in mixed lymph ocyte culture (MLC). It was shown that n-AGP, a-AGP, c-AGP and their m olecular forms n-AGP-1, n-AGP-2, c-AGP-1 and c-AGP-2 possessed the inh ibitory activity but to different extent. At all the doses studied a-A GP and n-AGP inhibited T-lymphocyte proliferation more strongly than n -AGP.
