Abstract

New lymphokine and its isolation and purification process. Said lymphokine is comprised of a factor obtained from T cells stimulated by concanavaline A or by an antigen capable of inhibiting the IgE-dependent platelet citotoxicity with respect to young larvae of S. Mansoni, of strongly reducing the chemiluminescence of blood platelets in a reaction IgE-anti-IgE, which is a correlate of the anti-parasite cytotoxicity, and of inhibiting the platelet activation in non-IgE dependent intolerences. Application as suppressor agent for suppressing platelet activation and as immunomodulator medicament of allergies.
