AB OBJECTIVE: To define by flow cytometry reference ranges on the absolute
no. and relative percentage of total T-lymphocyte (CD3+), T-helper
(CD4+), T-suppressor (CD8+) in healthy Chinese. METHOD: A FACScan flow
cytometer, SimulSET software, and conjugate monoclonal reagents
(Simultest IMKPlus) were used to analyse 207 health adults (130 females,
77 males) aged between 20 and 71, and to study the possible effects of
sex and age. RESULTS: TABULAR DATA, SEE ABSTRACT VOLUME. Further
analysis showed significant difference (P < 0.025) for sex, and positive
correlation with age for CD4+ percent. CONCLUSION: This set of data may
be useful for establishment of quality control criteria for flow
cytometry laboratories. Significant differences compared with Caucasian
population means that present regimens for prophylaxis and treatment
that are based solely on CD4+ counts may need to be modified when
applied to the Chinese population.
