摘要: • Agranulocytosis developed in a patient who was receiving propylthiouracil. Using microgranulocytotoxicity assay, serum taken from the shown to be strongly granulocytotoxic when tested against patient's granulocytes and those obtained two of eight normal subjects. Tests for granulocyte agglutinins lymphocytotoxicity were negative. Granulocytotoxic activity decreased as peripheral count recovered. Cytotoxicity mediated by complement-dependent IgM antibody.
