Specific bronchoalveolar lavage fluid T cells associate with disease in a pair of monozygotic twins discordant for sarcoidosis.

Journal of internal medicine - 1 Dec 2001

Grunewald I, Eklund A

Abstract excerpt

A 49-year-old Caucasian woman had an acute onset of sarcoidosis. Bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) showed a pronounced accumulation of BAL fluid CD4+ T cells expressing the T-cell receptor (TCR) AV2S 3 gene. In line with this observation, the patient was HLA-DR 17 positive, previously shown to strongly correlate with lung compartmentalized AV2S3+ T cells. At follow-up after recovery, reduced numbers...
