 AB    T lymphocyte subsets in a positive Kveim reaction and sarcoid tissue
       lesions as well as peripheral blood from 16 patients with sarcoidosis
       were evaluated with monoclonal antibodies. The data demonstrate a
       redistribution of T cells from the blood to the specifically involved
       tissues with granulomas, i.e., sarcoid tissue lesions and positive Kveim
       reaction. These cells express CD2+, CD4+ phenotype as demonstrated by
       high CD4/CD8 ratios at the sites of positive Kveim reaction and sarcoid
       tissue lesions with respect to blood.
