LOINC display name : Lymphocyte proliferation.Interleukin 2.maximum/CD45 FC (Bld);
LOINC long common name : Lymphocyte proliferation.Interleukin 2.maximum/CD45 in Blood by Flow cytometry (FC);
LOINC short name : LPT IL-2 max/CD45 NFr Bld FC;
LOINC description : The percent of proliferating lymphocytes stimulated by exogenous interleukin-2 (IL-2)
out of the total CD45 cell population. The maximum (highest proliferating out of 3
titrations) response to IL-2 is reported. This is a second-level test for assessing
lymphocyte (T-cell) function after lymphocyte proliferation to phytohemagglutinin
has been assessed. The test is used to evaluate patients with impairment in cellular
immunity due to primary or secondary immunodeficiencies and in patients receiving
immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory therapy.;
