Flow cytometry description of a novel CD3?/CD7+ intraepithelial lymphocyte subset in human duodenal biopsies: Potential diagnostic value in coeliac disease
15 Apr 1998
Abstract excerpt
Intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) represent a heterogeneous cellular compartment of unknown functions and controversial ontogeny. Previous observations in humans indicate that the majority of IEL subsets express the CD3 complex associated with either the alphabeta or the gammadelta T-cell receptor components, and describe the characteristic increase of CD3+TCRgammadelta+ IEL in coeliac disease.
