Abstract
Patients with common variable immune deficiency may have depressed blast transformation to PHA in the peripheral blood and depressed delayed hypersensitivity skin reactions at a time when their percentage of sheep red cell rosettes (presumptive measure of T cells) is normal. This may indicate the presence of two types of T cells in human peripheral blood.
