abstract：:Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is characterized by a focal periductal salivary gland infiltrate consisting mainly of T and B lymphocytes. Most of the T cells bear the memory CD4+ Th1-like phenotype and express high levels of class II, though CD8+ cells are also present. We have studied 17 labial salivary gland and 15 periphe...
