title: Delineation of lymphocyte subsets in lymph nodes of nonhuman primates.
abstract: Monoclonal antibodies which recognize specific surface antigens on human lymphocytes were used with an avidin-biotin immunoperoxidase technique to stain lymph nodes from nonhuman primates. Cells in lymph nodes from three macaque species and two new-world primate species could be stained to define T11, T4, T8, and B1 lymphocyte subsets. This approach will facilitate the study of many important spontaneous and experimentally induced diseases of nonhuman primates.
