Investigation of T lymphocyte subsets in fluid of the patients by flow cytometry / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the method of flow cytometric analysis of T lymphocyte subsets in bodyfluid of the pa-tients. Methods In ovder to get T lymphocytes by 3-colour staining method utilizing SSC/CD3Percp antibody,47 bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and 50 were tested by flow cytometery. Results 1)The percentage of Th is (67.98±7.41) % ,Ts(27.36±6.41) % and Th/Ts(2.60±0.64)in BALF with lung cancer,and the percentage of Th is (37.61±4.8)% ,Ts(67.97±4.20)% ,and Th/Ts(0. 47±0.10)in BALF with lung cancer respectively, and the Th cells in BALF with lung cancer were lower than those in the benign pulmonary disorder(P<0.05), and the Th/Ts ratio was significantly lower while the Ts cells were significantly higher in BALF of lung cancer(P<0.01), comparied with the benign pulmonary disorder; 2)The percentage of Th is (35.76±7.71) % and Ts(64.31 ±7.37) % and Th/Ts(0. 57 ± 0. 18) in BALF with lung cancer, and the percentage of Th is(49.27 ± 12.88) %, Ts(44.54 ± 9. 56) %,and Th/Ts is (1.13 ± 0.29) in BALF with benign pulmonary disorder. The Th cells in BALF with lung cancer was lower than those in the benign pulmonary disorder(P<0.05) ,the Th/Ts ratio were significantly lower and the Ts cells were significantly higher in BALF of lung cancer(P<0.01) comparied with the benign pulmonary disorder;3)The percentage of This(35.76±7. 71) %,Tsis(64.31 ± 7.37) % and Th/Ts are(0.57 ± 0. 18) in BALF with lung cancer, and the percentage of Th is (49.27 ± 12. 88) %, Ts is (44.54 ± 9.56) %, and Th/Ts is(1.13 ± 0.29) in BALF with benign pulmonary disorder. Respectively, the Th cells in BALF with lung cancer were lower than those in the benign pulmonary disorder(P<0.05), the Th/Ts ratio were significantly low-er and the Ts cells were significantly higher in BALF of lung cancer(P<0.01)comparied with the benign pulmonary disorder. Con-clusion The immunity function in the patients with lung cancer was significantly decreased. Flow cytometric approach is valuable in analyzing T lymphocyte subsets in BALF.
