The molecule E2 is present on T lymphocytes and thymocytes and is implicated in rosette phenomenon most probably via interaction with CD2. The discrepancy observed between rosette levels and lymphocyte phenotypes in the follow-up of kidney-transplanted patients treated with antilymphocyte globulins (ALG), methylprednisolone and azathioprine leaded us to study the effect of ALG on E2 molecule.
