Immunoglobulin levels in smokers and non-smokers.

J W Gerrard, D C Heiner, C G Ko, J Mink, A Meyers, J A Dosman.   

Abstract

Immunoglobulin levels were compared in smoking and non-smoking grain handlers and teachers. Mean IgC and IgM levels were significantly lower, and IgE levels were significantly higher, in the smokers than in the non-smokers. IgA levels were also lower but with the numbers studied not significantly so. IgD levels were unchanged.
