| pubmed-article:2088539 | pubmed:abstractText | To investigate cell-mediated immune response in chancroid, soluble interleukin-2 receptor levels in serum and urine samples of healthy individuals and patients were measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Increased levels both in serum and in urine were observed in cases of Haemophilus ducreyi infection. In patients showing a prolonged incubation period, urine levels exceeded serum values. Therapy led to a reduction of elevated interleukin-2 receptor levels in serum and in urine. | lld:pubmed |
