Ordering Recommendation

Primarily for evaluating T-cell function in patients with suspected cellular immune dysfunction, such as primary and secondary immunodeficiencies. Other uses include monitoring lymphocyte recovery and competence after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and monitoring lymphocyte function during immunosuppressive therapy. Not a first-level test; order after Lymphocyte Proliferation, Mitogen Induced, by Flow Cytometry (48-Hr Critical Room Temp) (3001321) has been performed.

Interpretive Data

This test measures T lymphocyte proliferation in response to stimulation with anti-CD3, anti-CD3/anti-CD28, and anti-CD3/Interleukin-2, determined by flow cytometry. Proliferating cells are detected by fluorescent labeling. Results are reported as percent proliferating cells of the total specific cell populations. This is a second-level test to be performed after Lymphocyte Proliferation to Mitogens (PHA, Con A, and PWM) by Flow Cytometry has been assessed.

This test was developed and its performance characteristics determined by ARUP Laboratories. It has not been cleared or approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. This test was performed in a CLIA certified laboratory and is intended for clinical purposes.
