[Abstract] AIM: To investigate the correlation of BrdU incorporation with the activation and cytokine expression of T cells. METHODS: PBMCs from healthy persons were isolated and stimulated by PMA plus Ionomycin at different periods of time, BrdU was then added to the cells one hour before the end of culture. The cells were harvested and stained with antiBrdU, anticell surface and intracellular antibodies. Then the cells were washed and analyzed by flow cytometer. RESULTS: The peak of BrdU incorporation was observed in T cells after they were stimulated for 48 hours in vitro, but no further increase of the peak of BrdU incorporation was found after incubated for a longer period of time. parison made between BrdU incorporation and cell activation indicated CD69 expression reached the peak after stimulated for 8 hours whereas CD25 was at the peak after stimulated for 24 hours. Furthermore, no correlation between BrdU incorporation and cytokine production was observed. High frequency of IFNγ producing cells was detected after stimulated for 8 hours but no obvious increase was observed for a longer period of time. When PBMC were stimulated with OKT3 plus antiCD28, the percentage of BrdU+ T cells was higher than that stimulated by PMA plus Ionomycin. Similarly, the percentage of BrdU+CD8+ T cells was higher than that of BrdU+CD4+ T cells. CONCLUSION: The percentage of BrdU+ cells can be detected by flow cytometer to evaluate the proliferation of T cells. Only a few T cells proliferate after polyclonal stimulation and BrdU incorporation is dependent on stuimulants and time of stimulation. Therefore, BrdU incorporation is not correlated with activation markers and cytokine production.

通常, 人们都是通过3[H]脱氧胸腺嘧啶苷掺入法或MTT比色法来检测T细胞增殖, 这些方法测定步骤较多, 或敏感性相对较低, 且不能从单个细胞水平评价细胞增殖, 具有一定限制性。与这些方法
