Reversible cerebellocerebral disorder in primary hemochromatosis.

Reversible cerebellar dysfunction is described in a patient with primary hemochromatosis. The electroencephalographic abnormalities initially recorded became normal after repeated phlebotomies. Both cerebellar dysfunction and electroencephalographic changes were present without clinical signs of hepatic failure, but may be related to the altered hepatic function tests.

Depression of T-cell function and normality of B-cell response in protein calorie malnutrition.

Antibody response to a T-cell dependent antigen, sheep erythrocytes and to a B-cell mitogen, purified lipopolysaccharide (LPS), has been studied in mice kept on protein deficient (2 and 4 per cent casein) diets. The number of plaque-forming cells (PFC) to SRBC were 20-5 +/- 7-7 per million spleen cells in protein-deficient animals compared to 261-0 +/- 31-1 in parallel controls maintained on a protein rich diet (18 per cent casein). No difference was observed in number of PFC formed in controls and deficient animals to LPS, values were 161-4 +/- 19-7, 158-5 +/- 14-2, & 162-3 +/- 31-9 in control (18 per cent casein) and deficient groups (4 per cent and 2 per cent casein) respectively. The delayed hypersensitivity skin reaction to SRBC measured in foot pads was significantly lower in mice on 4 per cent casein diet compared to controls. These studies suggest that the effect of protein deficiency is primarily on T-cell function and not on the B-cell response;
