Abstract:
A total of 54 cord blood collections were analysed for lymphocyte subsets. No significant differences in percentages of major lymphocyte subsets were found on CB in comparison with peripheral blood (CD 2+ 65%+/- 60, CD 3+ 69% +/- 5,4, CD 4+ 57%+/-7.6, CD 7+ 78% +/- 7.4 CD 8+ 16% +/- 6.1CD 16/56+ and CD 3+ 0.9% +/- 0.5, CD 19+ 16% +/- 3.9). The CD4: CD8 ratio is 3.56 compared with 1.4 in adult PB.CD 3+ with cytotoxic activity as determined by the expression of CD 56 are practically absent on CB.
