  • Title: Phenotype analysis of mononuclear cells in endomyocardial biopsy specimens from patients with viral myocarditis and dilated cardiomyopathy.
    Author: Li W, Yu S, Wang DW.
    Journal: J Tongji Med Univ; 1994; 14(4):213-5. PubMed ID: 7760430.
    Abstract:
    This study investigated the distribution and phenotype of mononuclear cells in endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) specimens from patients with viral myocarditis (VMC, 25 cases) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM, 10 cases). T lymphocytes, including Th/i cells in VMC and Tc/s cells in DCM, predominated in the infiltrating mononuclear cells in these specimens. The morphological relationship between infiltration of T lymphocytes and pathological changes of myocardia was also observed and neither macrophages nor B lymphocytes were found.
