comparison to allergic children. The differences in intracellular TGF-beta were not significant but the tendency to higher expression of TGF-beta in Tregs of healthy children was obvious. Colonized children, even these suffering from allergy, showed better functional markers of Tregs when compared with cells of non-colonized allergic children. It is possible to conclude the insufficient function of Tregs in allergic children leads to compensatory increase of their number. The immunomodulatory effect of probiotic E. coli can be, at least partially, explained by its positive influence on Treg function.

The increase of efficient treatment options has brought needs for early detection of complete remission and minimal residual disease (MRD) (Medd et al., 2011). In this study, we propose suitable combinations of CD markers that could lead to effective detection of MRD in order to increase its sensitivity which means to improve the prediction of a therapy response or continued remission. Methods: Cohort of 28 consecutive patients with a new diagnosis of MCL together with 16 healthy donors were included into the analysis. Samples of peripheral blood were tested using eight-color flow cytometry protocol. Cell surface antigens were stained with fluorescence labeled monoclonal antibodies (anti-CD5, 10, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 35, 38, 43, 45, 62L, 79b, 196 and 200). Flow cytometric acquisition was performed on a Analytical Cytometry VII 155

FACSCantoII flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson, NJ, USA). Results: There were found significantly lower expression of antigens CD23, CD62L, CD196 and CD200 on MCL B lymphocytes compared to healthy controls (p
