HLA-DR phenotypes and blood levels of T cell subsets
Tissue Antigens
|November 1, 1984
Abstract:
Blood mononuclear cell and T cell subsets values were analyzed in 53 Sicilian individuals according to HLA-DR phenotypes. The results demonstrate that DR1-positive subjects show a significant increase of blood T cell subsets whereas DR3-positive subjects show a non-significant decrease of these values. These results suggest that gene(s) associated with HLA-DR could be one of the factors which affect blood levels of T cell subsets.
