[The sensitivity of the blood lymphocytes in stomach cancer patients to met-enkephalin, dopamine and serotonin].

: Sensitivity of blood lymphocytes to the stimulating effect of met-enkephalin and dopamine was shown to decrease at late stages of the gastric cancer (IIIB-IV) or in the case of metastases to other organs, while to the inhibitory effect of serotonin it increased as compared to early stages (I-IIA). Using specific blockers of opioid, dopamine and serotonin receptors it was shown that these effects were mediated through stimulation of respective type receptors.
