[Lymphocyte subpopulations in carriers of antibodies to the human immunodeficiency virus]
Changes in subpopulations of OKT 3, OKT 4, OKT 8, HNK-I, B-IgM, and B-IgG-producing lymphocytes in carriers of HIV antibodies were studied. A decrease in OKT 4 helpers/inducers, an increase in OKT 8-suppressors of cytotoxic cells, HNK-I, Ia-positive and B-IgM-producing lymphocytes was demonstrated. The ratio of OKT 4/OKT 8 lymphocytes was below 1.0 in most of the subjects examined. Most marked changes in lymphocyte subpopulations were observed in anti-HIV carriers with lymphadenopathy.
