Subpopulations of human T lymphocytes. VIII. Locomotion of lymphocyte subpopulations in patients with primary immunodeficiency disorders. 1979

S Gupta, and A Miescher, and R A Good

Peripheral blood T and non-T lymphoid cells were examined in 31 patients with a variety of primary immmunodeficiencies for their locomotor activity toward casein and endotoxin-activated serum. T cells from 1 and non-T cells from 2 of 7 patients with Bruton type agammaglobulinemia had poor locomotor activity in this system. Both T and non-T lymphoid cells from all patients with common variable immunodeficiency disease had normal locomotor response to casein and EAS. Heterogeneity in locomotor abnormaltiy of T and non-T cells toward casein and endotoxin-activated serum was observed in other immunodeficient patients. No direct correlation was observed between the proportion of cells in the several T cell subsets and the abnormalities of locomotion of T cells.

D004406	Dysgammaglobulinemia	An immunologic deficiency state characterized by selective deficiencies of one or more, but not all, classes of immunoglobulins.	Dysgammaglobulinemias

D001260	Ataxia Telangiectasia	An autosomal recessive inherited disorder characterized by choreoathetosis beginning in childhood, progressive CEREBELLAR ATAXIA; TELANGIECTASIS of CONJUNCTIVA and SKIN; DYSARTHRIA; B- and T-cell immunodeficiency, and RADIOSENSITIVITY to IONIZING RADIATION. Affected individuals are prone to recurrent sinobronchopulmonary infections, lymphoreticular neoplasms, and other malignancies. Serum ALPHA-FETOPROTEINS are usually elevated. (Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, p688) The gene for this disorder (ATM) encodes a cell cycle checkpoint protein kinase and has been mapped to chromosome 11 (11q22-q23).

D013601	T-Lymphocytes	Lymphocytes responsible for cell-mediated immunity. Two types have been identified - cytotoxic (T-LYMPHOCYTES, CYTOTOXIC) and helper T-lymphocytes (T-LYMPHOCYTES, HELPER-INDUCER). They are formed when lymphocytes circulate through the THYMUS GLAND and differentiate to thymocytes. When exposed to an antigen, they divide rapidly and produce large numbers of new T cells sensitized to that antigen.

D013945	Thymoma	A neoplasm originating from thymic tissue, usually benign, and frequently encapsulated. Although it is occasionally invasive, metastases are extremely rare. It consists of any type of thymic epithelial cell as well as lymphocytes that are usually abundant. Malignant lymphomas that involve the thymus, e.g., lymphosarcoma, Hodgkin's disease (previously termed granulomatous thymoma), should not be regarded as thymoma.
