Useful For

Determining the presence of naive, memory, and activated T cells

in various clinical contexts including autoimmune diseases,

immunodeficiency states, T-cell recovery posthematopoietic

stem cell transplant, DiGeorge syndrome, and as a measure

for T-cell immune competence 

 

Naive T cells results can be used a surrogate marker for thymic-derived

T-cell reconstitution, when used in conjunction with assessment of

T-cell receptor excision circles (#87959 "T-Cell Receptor Excision

Circles [TREC] Analysis for Immune Reconstitution")

 

Assessing a patient's relative risk for infections

 

Evaluation of patients with cellular or combined primary

immunodeficiencies

 

Evaluation of T-cell reconstitution after hematopoietic

stem cell transplant, chemotherapy, biological therapy,

immunosuppression or immunomodulator therapy

 

Evaluation of patients with autoimmune diseases

 

Evaluation of HIV-positive patients for naive and memory subsets

 

Evaluation of T-cell immune competence (presence of memory and

activated T cells) in patients with recurrent infections
