Two-color analysis of lymphocyte subsets, natural killer cell activity and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity during a 2-month period of conventional physical therapy were evaluated in 11 patients with hemiplegia 2-4 weeks after the onset of cerebrovascular diseases who were classified into stage II-III by the criteria of Brunnstrom on admission. Compared with the patients who discontinued the physical therapy 3-4 weeks after the onset of stroke because of their own will, the suppressor/inducer T cells (CD4+×CD45R+), helper/inducer T cells (CD4+× CD29+), and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity activity were increased significantly, though suppressor T cells (CD8+×CD11+), cytotoxic T cells (CD8+×CD11-), activated T cells (Ia-1+×CD3+) and natural killer cell activity were not changed. It may be suggested that physical therapy in stroke patients has an effect of increasing the immune function.
