Phenotypical and Functional Characterization of Double‐Negative (CD4CD8) αβ T‐Cell Receptor Positive Cells from an Immunodeficient Patient

Abstract: We have characterized CD4-CD8- double-negative (DN) alpha beta TCR+ T cells from a patient with immunodeficiency, lymphocytosis, lymphadenopathy, and hepatosplenomegaly. The majority of peripheral blood lymphocytes were DN alpha beta TCR+ T cells as evaluated by FACS and biochemical analysis. The DN T cells showed the following phenotype: alpha beta TCR+, gamma delta TCR-, CD2+, CD3+, CD4-, CD5+, CD7-, CD8-, CD16-, CD25-, CD26-, CD28+, CD45RO-, CD45RA+, CD57+, and HLA-DR+. Both southern blot analysis of TCR ge… Show more

“…Note added in proof Since the submission ofthe manuscript for this article, Illum et al (35) have reported a patient with lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, and humoral immunodeficiency, who exhibited an expansion of TCRa/13 CD4-CD8-T cells. The phenotypic and functional properties of the double negative T cells from this patient were similar to those of our two patients.…”

“…Studies in human identified a population of DN T cells in a patient with immunodeficiency, lymphocytosis, lymphadenopathy, and hepatosplenomegaly. These cells showed an impaired proliferative response upon stimulation with mitogens or anti-CD3 plus anti-CD28 but were not tested for their immunosuppressive activity [67].…”

“…They represent a small subpopulation of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) in most healthy adults but are increased in some patients with systemic and cutaneous autoimmune disorders (17)(18)(19), in children suffering from certain genetic immunodeficiency syndromes (20,21), in some individuals infected with T-cell leukemia virus type I or human immunodeficiency virus (22,23), and in some apparently healthy individuals (24) (37). mAbs were anti-Leu-4 (CD3), anti-Leu-3 (CD4), anti-Leu-2a (CD8), anti-Leu-15 (CD11b), anti-Leu-llc (CD16), antiinterleukin-2 receptor (CD25, p55), anti-Leu-19 (CD56), and antiLeu-7 (CD57), anti-TCR-1 (TCR a/(3), anti-TCRy/8-1 (TCRCy), anti-Leu-8 (L-selectin), and anti-HLA-DR, all purchased from Becton Dickinson, and 2H4 (CD45RA) from Coulter (Raritan, NJ) and UCHL1 (CD45RO) from Dako.…”
