Test ID: TCP
T-Cell Subsets, Naive, Memory and Activated
NY State Approved
Indicates the status of NY State approval and if the test is orderable for NY State clients.
Useful For
Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
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 (TREC/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
