Subsets of normal mononuclear cells in the peripheral blood defined by monoclonal antibodies. 1985

H G Drexler, and S M Gignac, and J Minowada

We studied the peripheral blood of 20 healthy adult individuals for the distribution of subsets within the mononuclear cell population using indirect immunofluorescence staining. Normal ranges are given for several cell populations reacting with a panel of monoclonal antibodies. The analyzed immunological reagents included the monoclonal antibodies Leu-1 (Pan-T), Leu-2a (Suppressor-T), Leu-3a (Helper-T), Leu-7 (Natural Killer-T), MCS-2 (Pan-myeloid), NU-B1 (Pan-B), FMC-7 (B-subset), Tac (IL-2-receptor) and sheep erythrocyte rosetting (E). Cells were examined for positivity under an epi-immunofluorescence microscope and by flow cytometry. The data obtained by these two different approaches were in close agreement. The majority of the cells from the total mononuclear cell fraction in the peripheral blood were Leu-1+ (mean value of 64% by microscope/59% by flow cytometry) and E+ (61%). The T-populations could be broken down into Leu-3a+ (48%/43%), Leu-2a+ (31%/31%) and Leu-7+ (13%/14%). Between 2 and 5% of the cells showed double expression of antigens detected by Leu-2a and Leu-3a. The pan-myeloid reagent MCS-2 was positive on 25%/18% of the total cell population; the B-cells accounted for 5%/8%. Tac stained 7%/6% of the cells.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.

D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
