Lymph node biopsies of 12 patients at high risk for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) with generalized lymphadenopathy (AIDS-related complex [ARC]) and seven controls with conventional lymph node hyperplasia were examined by light microscopy and immunohistochemical staining of frozen tissue. The immunohistochemical results were quantified by planimetric means. Our findings show that the T helper/T suppressor-cytotoxic (Th/Tsc) ratio in lymph nodes from ARC patients is significantly decreased with respect to controls and that this decrease precedes the change in the Th/Tsc ratio in peripheral blood. Our findings distinguish between lymphadenopathy from patients with ARC and other forms of hyperplasia; the relation to AIDS is discussed.
