The CD4 cells are Helper T-cells expressing both CD3 and CD4. The CD8 cells are Cytotoxic T-cells expressing both CD3 and CD8. The B-cells express CD19 but not CD3. The NK-cells express either CD16 or CD56 (or both) but not CD3. CD3, CD4, CD8, CD19 and NK-cell percentages are reported as a percent of total lymphocytes. The CD45RA cells express both CD4 and the "naive" CD45RA antigens while CD45RO cells express both CD4 and the CD45RO "memory" antigens. CD45RA and CD45RO percentages are reported as a percent of total CD4 cells. CD4 T-cell levels are a criterion for categorizing HIV-related clinical conditions by the CDC's classification system for HIV infection. The measurement of CD4 T-cell levels has been used to establish decision points for initiating P. jirovecii prophylaxis, antiviral therapy and to monitor the efficacy of treatment. The Public Health Service (PHS) has recommended that CD4 T-cell levels be monitored every 3 to 6 months in all HIV-infected persons.
Compliance Statement A: For laboratory developed tests using a manufacturer labeled ASR as the reagent providing the specificity of the assay. Analyte Specific Reagent. This test was developed and its performance characteristics determined by ARUP Laboratories. The U. S. Food and Drug Administration has not approved or cleared this test; however, the FDA has determined that such clearance or approval is not necessary.
This test is designed for enumerating the percent and absolute cell count of lymphocyte subsets in lysed whole blood. Whole blood is added to fluorochrome-labeled antibodies that bind specifically to cell surface antigens on lymphocytes. After incubation, lysing and fixation, percent and absolute count are enumerated utilizing an internal quantitation standard. Additional CBC data is not required.
During HIV infection, antiviral therapy is often initiated when the absolute CD4 count drops below 500 cells/µL. When the absolute CD4 count drops below 200 cells/µL, therapeutic prophylaxis against PCP and other opportunistic infections may be initiated. When the absolute CD4 count drops below 100 cells/µL, prophylaxis against Mycobacterium avium complex is recommended.
The CD45RA subset delineates a "naive" CD4 T-cell population. The CD45RO subset delineates a "memory" CD4 T-cell population. With disease progression in HIV-infected individuals, a decrease in CD45RA "naive" cells may be observed.
For longitudinal studies involving serial monitoring, specimen collections should be performed at the same time of day.
