In pulmonary sarcoidosis, a chronic granulomatous disorder with different stages of activity, the proliferative capacity of the alveolar mononuclear cells is unknown. To get a closer look at this proliferation we combined pulse labeling (by means of tritium thymidine incorporation and autoradiography) with an immunocytochemical staining assay. This assay revealed on one single slide simultaneously blue CD4+ lymphocytes, brown CD8+ lymphocytes and red macrophages. We were able to show that CD4+ as well as CD8+ lymphocytes were radiolabeled only in the active state of the disease. But macrophage proliferation occurred independently of the activity of the disease. In other words with this combination of techniques, it is possible to differentiate, on a single slide, three subsets of mononuclear cells, in combination with their proliferative behavior.

D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
