Abstract
The authors evaluated the lymphocyte subsets in eight children with the DiGeorge anomaly, compared with 48 age-matched control infants. Of particular interest was the finding that the percentage and number of CD5+ B lymphocytes were decreased in seven of the eight cases. This observation may provide insight into thymic function and the interaction of the B and T cell systems in some forms of congenital and acquired immunodeficiencies.Entities:
