Abstract:
Objective: The current stady was designed to investigate the reconstitution of T cell receptor repertoire in the patients with chronic Graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). Methods: The TCR repertoire in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 5 cGVHD patients was examined after PCR amplification of 24 Vβ gene subfamilies. Results: Only 2-8 Vβ subfamily T cells were found in the samples from these patients, and there were different demonstrations in different patients. We found Vβ T cells proliferated in 4 patients. Conclusion: The TCR repertoire complexities was abnormal in all patients,Vβ may be associated with cGVHD, and the method may be demonstrated the reconstitution of T cell after transplantation.
