title: Depletion of circulating T lymphocytes in pregnancy.
abstract: Changes were assessed in lymphocyte sub-populations in various stages of human pregnancy. The percentage and absolute number of E-RFC decreased during pregnancy. There was a concomitant rise in the percentages of EAC-RFC and cells bearing SmIg with little change in their absolute numbers. EAC-RFC continued to rise post-natally.
