E-rosette forming lymphocytes in acute leukemia before and after cell incubation with human serum thymic factor. 1977

U Ozger Topuz, and A Okçuoglu Cavdar, and G Astaldi

The Authors studied the effect of the human serum thymic factor on the peripheral blood leukocytes from ALL patients, by testing the frequency of the E+ cells by means of the E rosette assay before and after cell incubation with this factor. In four out of twenty-four patients tested, the thymic factor incubation of peripheral blood mononuclears increased the number of E+ cells. The shift from E- to E+ cells caused by the human serum thymic factor occurred among null cells (E-, SM-Ig-). The possible value of the test in investigating whether a T0 leukemia might really exists is pointed out, as well as its prospective importance in monitoring the variations of the immature T cell counts in relationship to the patient's treatment and his disease course.

D012397 Rosette Formation The in vitro formation of clusters consisting of a cell (usually a lymphocyte) surrounded by antigenic cells or antigen-bearing particles (usually erythrocytes, which may or may not be coated with antibody or antibody and complement). The rosette-forming cell may be an antibody-forming cell, a memory cell, a T-cell, a cell bearing surface cytophilic antibodies, or a monocyte possessing Fc receptors. Rosette formation can be used to identify specific populations of these cells. Immunocytoadherence,Formation, Rosette,Formations, Rosette,Immunocytoadherences,Rosette Formations
