To analyze the T cell receptor V beta gene on double-negative (DN) alpha/beta T cells, which are increased in number, on peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc).
The DN alpha/beta T cells were sorted by flow cytometry from PBL obtained from 3 patients with SSc. The V beta repertoire was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction.
Only 1 or 2 V beta genes (V beta 5/7, 5, or 17) were predominantly expressed on DN alpha/beta T cells from these 3 patients.
The V beta repertoire on DN alpha/beta T cells in PBL from patients with SSc is rather restricted.
分析系统性硬化症(SSc)患者外周血淋巴细胞(PBL)上数量增加的双阴性(DN)α/βT细胞的T细胞受体Vβ基因。
通过流式细胞术从3例SSc患者获取的PBL中分选DNα/βT细胞。采用聚合酶链反应分析Vβ谱。
这3例患者的DNα/βT细胞上主要仅表达1种或2种Vβ基因(Vβ5/7、5或17)。
SSc患者PBL中DNα/βT细胞的Vβ谱相当受限。
