A novel erythroid cell line, RM10, was established from a long-term bone marrow culture of a patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). RM10 cells were positive for periodic acid Schiff (PAS), but negative for peroxidase and dual esterase. RM10 cells had la, pre B (CD10), myeloid (CD13, CD14, CD33) and erythroid (glycophorin A) markers, but had no other lymphoid, megakaryocytic, or mesenchymal cell markers. RM10 cells spontaneously synthesized hemoglobin, which was markedly enhanced with hemin. Isoelectric focusing of the cell lysates and northern blot analysis of the total cellular RNA revealed hemoglobin synthesis in the cells. Using 125I-labeled recombinant human erythropoietin (Epo), two classes of Epo receptors were demonstrated in the RM10 cells. However, Epo did affect neither growth nor erythroid differentiation of the cells. RM10 cells rapidly differentiated to monocytic cells in the presence of 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, and simultaneously expressed glycoprotein IIb/IIIa. RM10 cells had Philadelphia chromosome (Ph), and expressed p210bcr-abl using immunoprecipitation with anti-c-abl and anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies. These results indicate that the RM10 cells have the characteristics of multipotential hemopoietic cells originating from Ph-positive CML and that high affinity Epo receptor class is not a sufficient condition for Epo responsiveness.

A novel human cell line, KMT-2, from umbilical cord blood cells was established based on the selection of cultures in the presence of recombinant human interleukin-3 (IL-3) and the sorting of cells with anti-My 10 antibody. Morphologic and cytochemical studies (peroxidase negative, Sudan-black negative, chloroacetate esterase negative, PAS positive, nonspecific esterase positive) and phenotyping (HLA-DR, My7 = CD13, My9 = CD33, My10 = CD34, MCS-2, LeuM1 positive, glycophorin A negative, and P2 negative) suggest that the KMT-2 cells are myelomonocytic cells, probably of immature progenitor origin. Besides IL-3, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor supported the growth of the KMT-2 cells, but IL-1 alpha, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, and erythropoietin did not. IL-6 showed only slight activity. Binding studies with 125I-labeled recombinant human (rh) IL-3 indicated that IL-3 bound to a single class of high affinity receptors (approximately 4,000 receptors/cell) on KMT-2 cells with a kd of approximately 200 pmol/L. The chemical cross-linking assay demonstrated that radiolabeled hIL-3 bound three molecules with molecular masses of 170, 130, and 70 Kd. Present data suggest that the newly established human cell line will be a valuable tool for the biologic assay of hIL-3, and a model for biochemical studies of IL-3 receptors.

YNK01 (a daily oral dose of 450 mg) was administered for 22 days to a 58-year-old-female with Ph1-positive acute unclassified leukemia. Leukemia cells were negative for peroxidase and esterase, but were positive for CD19, CD13, CD34, CD9, HAL-DR, CD25, and TdT. Complete remission was obtained and continued for at least a month. The main side effects noted were diarrhea and melena. The administration of YNK01 resulted in plasma ara C levels that ranged between 15.4 to 23.0 ng/ml, which appear to be nearly equivalent to dose achieved during continuous IV infusion of a low dose (20 mg/m2/day) of ara C.

A human megakaryoblastic cell line, designated CHRF-288-11, has been established in vitro through the use of adherent stromal cells in long-term human bone marrow culture. Long-term bone marrow cultures were required for the initial adaptation of the megakaryoblastic cells to culture conditions; however, once adapted, the cells were weaned from the stromal layer until they proliferated in the complete absence of any feeder layers. The seed cells for the establishment of this line were derived from a solid tumor; the cloned cell line derived from this tumor exhibits markers characteristic of megakaryocytes and platelets. Specifically, the cells express platelet peroxidase, platelet factor 4, and platelet Ca+(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), glycoprotein IIb-IIIa (CDw41), factor VIII antigen, and the MY7 (CD13) and MY9 (CD33) antigens. The cells do not express the erythroid markers glycophorin A and hemoglobin, the myeloid marker myeloperoxidase, nor markers specific for T and/or B cells. The established cell line produces both basic fibroblast growth factor and transforming growth factor-beta, properties demonstrated previously for the solid tumor. The clonal cell population exhibited a unique, singular karyotype, indicating cellular homogeneity. The cells display a doubling time of approximately 33 hours in either 25% horse or calf serum. Treatment of the cells with 1 X 10(-8) mol/L phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) leads to the induction of multi-nucleation and hyperploidy in the cells, with approximately 35% of the cells exhibiting two or more nuclei per cell, and greater than 80% of the cells enlarging in size. The establishment of this unique cell line under defined culture conditions will be beneficial for the future study of megakaryocytic properties expressed by this cell line.

We have analysed the immunological characteristics of blasts from 89 acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) cases (62 adults and 27 children), by using a panel of antilymphoid and myeloid associated monoclonal antibodies (McAb) and the APAAP method, which detects membrane and cytoplasmic expression of antigens. The McAb CD19 was the marker most consistently expressed in B lineage ALL, being positive in 100% of cases, compared to CD24 and CD22 expressed in 82% and 79%, respectively. Similarly, for the T lymphoid lineage, the McAb CD3 was the most reliable and specific marker, being expressed in all T-ALL cases including those with an early thymic phenotype (CD7+, TdT+). Lymphoblasts from eight adults (12.9%) and three children (11.1%) expressed one to four myeloid associated antigens recognized by CD13, CD14, CD33 and anti-myeloperoxidase. There were no substantial clinical and morphological differences between the two ALL groups with or without myeloid associated markers. However, the presence of myeloid associated markers in adult ALL was associated with a significantly lower complete remission (CR) rate (P = 0.05) and with a shorter survival (P = 0.001); this variable was independent of advanced age and high WBC. It is concluded that immunophenotypic analysis in ALL should include myeloid markers for its probable prognostic implications.

During the diagnostic investigation of 750 acute leukemias, nine cases were morphologically, cytochemically, and phenotypically undifferentiated. In seven of these cases the blasts were class II+, CD34+ and TdT+, in one were class II+, TdT+, CD7+ while in the remaining leukemia blasts expressed class II only. Cytoplasmic and membrane CD22, CD3, CD13, and Ig as well as membrane CD19, CD10, CD37, CD2, CD33, CD14, glycophorin C, and CD61 were absent. The further characterization of these rare leukemias yielded the following results. The TCR-beta, -gamma and -delta genes were in germline configuration in seven cases studied while IgH genes were rearranged on both alleles in two cases and germline in the other five. By ultrastructural analysis peroxidase activity was detected on unfixed cells in a minority of blasts from four of seven cases. In two of the peroxidase-positive cases a small proportion of blasts also reacted with an anti-myeloperoxidase monoclonal antibody. In one of the peroxidase-negative cases, 7% of blasts were labeled by the antibody, suggesting the presence of peroxidase in its proenzyme form. Importantly, the two cases with Ig gene rearrangements did not have cytochemically or immunologically detectable peroxidase. Three of the nine patients were treated as ALL while six received AML chemotherapy. In five patients complete remission was achieved while the other four died from infections during remission induction. Four patients are still in remission 7, 12, 24, and 30 months after diagnosis while one patient relapsed after 12 months. In conclusion, we have characterized the genotypic and ultrastructural features of subtype of acute leukemia in which blasts expressed immaturity markers and lacked lineage associated antigens. In contrast to previously reported "unclassifiable" cases, the leukemias were phenotypically homogeneous and showed a good response to chemotherapy.

A 12-year old boy was admitted to Saitama Children's Medical Center because of fever and epistaxis. He had leukocytosis (WBC 40,800/microliters, blast 75%), anemia, thrombocytopenia and high levels of serum LDH, lysozyme, Vitamin B12, and plasma histamine. Bone marrow aspiration revealed hypercellular marrow with 31.2% blasts, 15.2% eosinophils, and 14.2% basophils. Blasts had Auer rods and were positive for peroxidase and negative for alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase and PAS stainings. Ia, CD13 (My7), and CD19 (B4) antigens were expressed on his leukemic cells. Chromosomal study showed 46, XY, t(7;8) (q35;q22), del(9) (q13q22). Southern blot analysis using immunoglobulin constant region (C) probes revealed germline patterns of C mu, C kappa, C lambda, and breakpoint cluster region. A diagnosis of acute myelomonocytic leukemia (AMMoL, M4) was made. He attained a complete remission with daunorubicin and cytarabine, and 6 months later he received bone marrow transplantation from HLA-identical sister. This case had the common breakpoint 8q22 with ANLL with t(8;21) (q22;q22), and was unique AMMoL with proliferation of eosinophils and basophils in bone marrow.

A case of chemotherapy-resistant non-Hodgkin's lymphoma simultaneously expressing T cell (CD7)-, B cell (CD19)- and myeloid (CD13, CD33)-associated surface antigens is presented. Cytochemical analysis revealed that the lymphoma cells were positive for terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase, but negative for myeloperoxidase and esterase. Rearrangements of both the T cell receptor beta chain and gamma chain genes were observed, but the immunoglobulin genes showed a germ line configuration. The rearrangement was not detected within the breakpoint cluster region on chromosome 22. These findings are considered to represent aberrant expressions of the B cell- and myeloid-associated antigens in early-stage T cell lineage lymphoma cells.

Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (FABM7) is an unusual but well recognized form of acute myelogenous leukemia in which the bone marrow blast cells are phenotypically recognized by the demonstration of cytoplasmic platelet peroxidase or surface staining for the IIb/IIIa platelet-specific glycoprotein. Herein, the authors report a case of acute megakaryoblastic leukemia that satisfies the accepted French-American-British criteria and in which the blast cells also exhibit evidence of myeloid differentiation, including surface MY7 (CD13) by flow cytometry and immunocytochemical positivity for myeloperoxidase. These findings suggest that megakaryoblasts may be closely related to myelomonoblasts, that they have the potential to partially differentiate along multiple phenotypic lines, and that aberrant phenotypes can occur that do not correspond to known stages of normal maturation. The authors illustrate the difficulty in classification of these aberrant phenotypes by standard cytochemical and morphologic criteria.

A 26-year-old male was admitted to our hospital because of fever and leukocytosis. On admission, a white blood cell count was 28,300/microliters with 46.5% blast cells and 16.0% atypical monocytoid cells, a hemoglobin level 13.7 g/dl, and a platelet count 15.0 X 10(4)/microliters. Bone marrow contained 58.8% of peroxidase-negative blast cells. He was diagnosed as acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL L2) according to the FAB classification. Chromosome analysis revealed the marrow cells to contain 45, XY, -7, t(9; 22) (q34; q11). On surface marker analysis, the leukemic cells were positive for both lymphoid (CD10) and myeloid markers (CD13). Two color flow-cytometric analysis showed two distinct populations with CD10 and CD1 3, respectively. Rearrangements of both immunoglobulin heavy chain and T cell receptor beta-chain were observed. The "breakpoint cluster region" on chromosome 22 was not rearranged. On the basis of these findings, we thought this case being acute mixed leukemia. He was refractory to AdVP therapy and BHAC-DMP therapy. He is now under treatment with A-Triple-V therapy.
