%X the aim of this study was to establish an immunological profile by marking and quantification of t and b lymphocytes in curraleiro breed by immunocytochemistry. a total of 116 cattle was used, males and females of different ages, from two farms situated in the goi¨¢s state, brazil. the animals were allotted into groups according to age, sex and origin. blood samples were collected and processed in accordance with immunocytochemistry standard technique using lymphoid markers species-specific, as anti-cd3 (mm1a - bocd3) and anti-lb (lctb16a-clone b-b14), for t and b lymphocyte counting, respectively. the data were submitted to descriptive statistics, and to kruskall wallis and mann-whitney tests. the results showed decreased levels of leukocytes, lymphocytes, t lymphocytes and b lymphocytes along the age advance. absolute values of leukocytes, lymphocytes and t lymphocytes were higher in males than females. none of the evaluated parameters were affected by differences of the management carried out at the two farms.
