A double-label flow cytometric analysis of the simultaneous expression of OKT4 and Leu2a antigens on circulating T lymphocytes in myasthenia gravis.

Abstract:

:A two-color immunofluorescence analysis of circulating abnormal T lymphocytes bearing both helper (T4) and suppressor/cytotoxic (Leu2a) T cell markers (double marker cells) was performed by means of the laser flow cytometry system. The double marker cell level was very low in 6 patients with multiple sclerosis and 12 normal controls studied. Fifteen of 31 patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) showed an elevation of double marker cells without an increase in T6-positive cells. The values were significantly higher in patients with thymoma or thymic hyperplasia than in those with a normal thymus. The double marker cell level was considered to reflect thymic abnormality in MG and to be helpful for determining the indication of thymectomy.

  • Regional difference in inflammatory response to LPS-injection in the brain: role of microglia cell density.

    abstract::To elucidate whether density of cells could contribute to the extent of microglial activation, we performed in vitro assays using three different densities of N13 microglia stimulated with LPS. Our results showed that induction of pro-inflammatory factors as TNF-α and iNOS was directly related to cell density, meanwhi...
