The potential of immunogold-silver staining for study of leukocyte subpopulations, as defined by monoclonal antibodies in cell suspensions, was examined. The cells were labeled in suspension as described for immunogold staining. Cytocentrifuge preparations of the suspensions were then immersed in a physical developer. By light microscopy, cells reacting with the monoclonal antibodies showed dark granules on their surface membrane. The morphology of the cells, as revealed by a panoptic counterstain, was comparable with that seen in routine cell smears for differential counts. The numbers of T-cells, T-helper/inducer cells, and T-cytotoxic/suppressor cells counted by this method in normal peripheral blood were nearly identical to those identified by immunogold staining and immunofluorescence microscopy in the same cell suspensions. The good morphological delineation also made possible rapid and accurate identification of particular leukocyte subsets in complex cell suspensions. Atypical lymphocytes from patients with infectious mononucleosis displayed the surface phenotype of activated T-cytotoxic/suppressor cells. Different maturation stages of neoplastic cells in patients with acute myeloid leukemia showed differences in surface antigen expression. Immunological detection of cell surface antigens could be combined with cytochemical staining of intracellular enzymatic activities. Finally, the labeling could be performed on cells prefixed on glass slides.
