Abstract:
Objective To establish the normal reference ranges of peripheral blood CD4 and CD8 lymphocytes for the healthy population in Tianjin. Methods 366 samples were recruited from among local physical examination adults and their absolute and proportional values for the ranges of CD4 and CD8 lymphocytes were detected by quantitative flow cytometry with fluorescence labeled antibodies. Results Mean absolute values were (860.27?255.15) cells/?l for CD4 T cells,(671.60?371.39) cells/?l for CD8 T cells and (1.44?0.62) for CD4/CD8 ratio; and the proportional values were (37.05?7.42)% for CD4 T cells,(28.42?7.46)% for CD8 T cells. Our results showed no differences between gender and age on CD4 T cell counts among the healthy adult population in Tianjin. Conclusions There is difference in CD4 T lymphocyte counts in different areas.
