title: Circulating lymphocyte subsets in patients with alopecia areata.
abstract: Lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood of fourteen patients with patchy alopecia areata or alopecia universalis were estimated using monoclonal antibodies and immunofluorescence. The median percentage of circulating Leu 2a, 3a, 4 and 7 positive cells ("T-suppressor/cytotoxic", "T-helper/effector", total T-cells and killer and natural killer cells) were normal.
