Abstract

Lymphocytes were eluted from synovial tissue of a boy with X-linked hypogammaglobulinemia and chronic polyarthritis. The cell suspension contained 53% lymphocytes and 28% peroxidase-positive, macrophagelike cells, No B lymphocytes, 83% T lymphocytes, and 10% Fc-receptor-bearing lymphocytes were detected. Lymphocyte transformation was induced by polyclonal mitogens (phytohemagglutinin and pokeweed mitogen) whereas no response to antigens (purified protein derivative and Candida albicans antigen) was obtained. The eluted cells displayed antibody-dependent cytotoxicity.
