:<span style="color:navy">'''Background'''</span>
:The αβ chains expressed are expressed as part of the T-cell receptor (TCR) complex - these are the antigen recognising parts of the complex. T cells expressing this receptor are referred to as αβ T cells.
:<span style="color:navy">'''Diagnostic Use'''</span>
*Significant populations expressing gd chains may indicate autoimmune or inflammaotory disease
*γδ restriction or predominance may suggest a γδ lymphoma
*Absence of αβ or γδ is found in NK lineage disorders
