Immunohistochemical identification of lymphocyte subsets and macrophages in normal human urothelium using monoclonal antibodies. 1986

M I el-Demiry, and T B Hargreave, and A Busuttil, and K James, and G D Chisholm

Monoclonal antibodies were used to examine the pattern of distribution of lymphocyte subpopulations and macrophages in normal human urothelium. T lymphocytes (T11-positive cells) were demonstrated within the epithelium and within the lamina propria of both the ureter and the urinary bladder. Suppressor/cytotoxic T cells (T8-positive cells) predominated, with the average ratio of suppressor/cytotoxic T cells to the helper/inducer T cells being approximately 8.9 in the epithelium and 1.5 in the lamina propria. Leu M3+ cells (monocytes/macrophages) were detected in both epithelium and lamina propria. The character and distribution of these immunocompetent cells within the urothelium suggest a protective function, especially against infection and in tumour surveillance.

D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
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.

D009000 Monocytes Large, phagocytic mononuclear leukocytes produced in the vertebrate BONE MARROW and released into the BLOOD; contain a large, oval or somewhat indented nucleus surrounded by voluminous cytoplasm and numerous organelles. Monocyte
D009092 Mucous Membrane An EPITHELIUM with MUCUS-secreting cells, such as GOBLET CELLS. It forms the lining of many body cavities, such as the DIGESTIVE TRACT, the RESPIRATORY TRACT, and the reproductive tract. Mucosa, rich in blood and lymph vessels, comprises an inner epithelium, a middle layer (lamina propria) of loose CONNECTIVE TISSUE, and an outer layer (muscularis mucosae) of SMOOTH MUSCLE CELLS that separates the mucosa from submucosa.
