Title: The majority of Fc gamma RIII-positive gamma delta T cells do not express HLA-DR in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome. Author: Lamour A, Smith MD, Lydyard PM, Youinou PY. Journal: Immunol Lett; 1995 Mar; 45(3):153-5. PubMed ID: 7558166. Abstract: The percentages of circulating gamma delta T cells and the proportions of these expressing Fc gamma RIII (CD16) or HLA-DR in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) and controls were determined using monoclonal antibodies and flow cytometry. There was no significant difference in the percentages of gamma delta T cells in the pSS patients compared with controls. There was, however, a significant increase in the proportions of both CD16+ and HLA-DR+ gamma delta T cells in pSS patients. A 3-colour immunofluorescence technique demonstrated that these two markers were mutually exclusive and therefore may identify either subpopulations of gamma delta T cells or different stages of the activation process.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
