Notes:
Peripheral blood T lymphocytes and T cell subsets were examined in fifteen patients with lichen planus prior to and for 4 months during treatment.The percentages of different T cell sub-populations were defined by indirect immunofluorescence using monoclonal antibodies OKT3, OKT4 and OKT8. These are specific markers of total T cells, helper-inducer T cells and suppressor-cytotoxic T cells respectively.Decreased percentages of suppressor T cells and elevated helper suppressor ratios were observed before treatment and after 1 month of therapy. These changes had disappeared by the second month of treatment, by which time all the lesions had healed.
