Abstract
The identification of mononuclear cells extracted from various skin disorders has been investigated and the relative amount of B and T cells determined according to various assays such as E-rosette test, FITC and peroxidase anti-immunoglobulin conjugates. It has been found that: (a) there were two different patterns of distribution of the cells in the infiltrates; one with a T/B ratio above 3 (closest to a delayed type reaction), the other with a T/B ratio below 2. (b) The morphological appearance of tissue lymphocytes differs from that of circulating lymphocytes by the presence of both membrane and cytoplasmic immunoglobulins.
