title: CD31 Expression on CD4+ Cells: A Simple Method for Quantitation of Recent Thymus Emigrant CD4 Cells.
abstract: Measurements of CD4+CD31+cells gave results consistent with those expected for recent thymus emigrant (RTE) CD4+cells. The method was markedly simpler than established procedures for measurement of CD4+RTE cells and is usable in locations with limited facilities and budgets.
