We have noticed occasional cases with a fair amount of CD4/CD8 coexpression in peripheral bloods (up to 10% coexpression within the lymphoid gate).  Most of these cases show no CMC or morphological abnormalities and we are not sure about the clinical significance of this findings.	Does anybody know a "non-malignant" explanation for this finding?  QC of these antibodies looks fine.

Thanks for your help!
