Summary
The aim of this study was to investigate changes in lymphocyte subpopulations in adenoids according to age. Investigations were carried out on adenoids removed during adenoidectomy procedures performed on a laryngological basis (hypertrophy) in children in two age groups: 0-5 years old and 5-10 years old. Monoclonal antibodies against superficial antigens of lymphocytes: CD3, CD4, CD8, HLA-DR, CD25 and CD16+56 were used. Analyses were performed using a Coulter EPICS XL flow cytometer with 10⁴ cells per count. No statistically significant differences between groups were found.
