My research in the Pathology department is mainly focused on immunological aspects of B-cell lymphoma. I study interactions of tumor cells with the microenvironment, and signaling pathways in Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphomas.
REACTIVITY OF PRESUMED ANTI-NATURAL KILLER CELL ANTIBODY LEU-7 WITH INTRAFOLLICULAR LYMPHOCYTES-T
This report describes the presence of a T lymphocyte subpopulation in germinal centres of lymph follicles. This subpopulation is defined by reactivity with Leu 7 antibody, in addition to OKT11, OKT1, OKT3 and OKT4 positivity. The functional activity of this T lymphocyte subpopulation is a matter of discussion and has to be clarified by functional studies of purified populations of these cells.
