ABSTRACT
Lymphocytotoxic antibodies (LCAs) were assayed in serum samples from 60 patients of leprosy spectrum before starting multi-drug therapy (MDT). Seventeen healthy volunteers without any history of viral infection provided control samples. Post treatment follow up samples were also included in the study. In all pretreatment sera of LL, BL and BT/TT patients the levels of LCAs were elevated, the figures were 39.05 +/- 23.87, 44.89 +/- 20.74 and 34.16 +/- 17.50 respectively. With treatment a significant fall in LcAs production was observed in all types of leprosy patients.
