Abstract excerpt
Little is known about the mechanisms of impaired immune function in alcoholic patients. We have previously shown that ethanol consumption by mice alters copolymer-specific humoral and cellular immune responses. Does ethanol consumption eliminate suppressor T cells, allowing nonresponder mice to make humoral immune responses to poly(Glu50Tyr50) (GT)? Female C57BL/6 mice were fed a nutritionally complete liquid...
