title: [Phenotype of T lymphocytes and macrophages obtained by broncho-alveolar lavage of human lung].
abstract: T lymphocytes and macrophages, isolated and purified from broncho-alveolar lavages performed in normal controls and in patients with various alveolar structure diseases were identified using monoclonal antibodies against different membrane markers. For T lymphocyte subsets, our results are consistent with previous observations showing a large number of lung helper T cells in patients with sarcoidosis with high-intensity alveolitis. For macrophage subsets, we pointed out, for all cases, a weak expression of monocyte markers.
