title: [Nuclear refringence of E rosette forming human lymphocytes].
abstract: Formation of E rosette is specific of T lymphocytes. More than 95% of the human lymphocytes forming E rosettes are refringent. However, nuclear refringency is not an exclusive property of T lymphocytes. E rosette formation by thymocytes and lymphocytes helps to clarify the nuclear refringency phenomenon with regard to cell maturation and nuclear activity.
