Clinically asymptomatic hemophiliacs demonstrate many immune abnormalities that might represent exposure to the AIDS agent through blood products or be a natural reaction to their therapy. In this study, we examined lymphocyte subset distribution in children with hemophilia A who had been exposed to HTLV-III as determined by antibody seroconversion. Seroconversion to HTLV-III was confirmed using Western blot analysis. The lymphocyte subsets studied included T4+ and T8+ cells. The distribution of lymphocyte subsets in children with hemophilia A was independent of seroconversion to HTLV-III. Children with hemophilia A treated with commercial factor VIII concentrate had normal numbers of circulating T4+ lymphocytes and significantly increased numbers of circulating T8+ lymphocytes compared with their nontransfused age-matched counterparts. An increased number of T8+ lymphocytes was not observed, however, in children treated exclusively with cryoprecipitate. These results suggest that HTLV-III alone cannot account for changes in lymphocyte subsets in hemophiliacs. Higher antigenic protein loads in factor VIII concentrate or additional factors might account for the increased absolute numbers of T8+ lymphocytes and represent a natural response to therapy.</p>","PeriodicalId":77707,"journal":{"name":"Diagnostic immunology","volume":"4 1","pages":"37-42"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1986-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"14140416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For serial dilutions of a given mitogen, the percentage of lymphocytes expressing IL2R after 1 day of culture was plotted vs 3H-thymidine incorporation on day 3, and the IL2R value associated with a proliferative response of 50,000 counts per minute (IL2R-50K) determined. A mean IL2R-50K value of 7 characterized PHA, Con A, and OKT3 responses, while a higher mean value of 29 characterized anti-Leu 4(L4) responses. As tested in OKT3 and L4 systems, the addition of exogenous IL2 did not alter IL2R-50K values. Because both OKT3 and L4 recognize the lymphocyte CD3 antigen but react with different monocyte Fc receptors, the role of monocytes in producing elevated L4 IL2R-50K values was explored. MC from healthy L4 nonresponders (NR), induced to proliferate with L4 in the presence of responder (R) monocytes, also yielded an elevated mean IL2R-50K value of 31. In contrast, direct stimulation of R-MC, NR-MC, or NR-MC plus R monocytes by L4-coated sepharose beads produced lower mean IL2R-50K values of 12 or 13. Two-color cytofluorescence studies measuring IL2R and transferrin receptor (TR) on day 2 of culture revealed that most of the increase in IL2R+ cells in response to L4 was attributable to IL2R+TR-cells. These findings suggest that crosslinking of lymphocyte-bound soluble L4 by R monocytes leads to a uniquely elevated pattern of IL2R expression involving a disproportionate increase in the level of IL2R+TR-cells.</p>","PeriodicalId":77707,"journal":{"name":"Diagnostic immunology","volume":"4 5","pages":"241-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1986-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"14230600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
