Immunomodulation by tamoxifen and pergolide.

Abstract	Treatment of rats with tamoxifen citrate or pergolide mesylate was as effective in inhibiting antibody formation and contact sensitivity skin reactions as was hypophysectomy. The immunocompetence of tamoxifen citrate- and pergolide mesylate-suppressed animals could be fully restored by additional treatment with prolactin or growth hormone.
