An increasing number of acute leukemias coexpressed markers normally believed to be restricted to a single lineage have been found recently. This special subgroup of leukemias have drawn a lot of attention because of their biologic and clinical significance. In a study of 100 consecutive de novo ANLL patients diagnosed by FAB criteria, T-cell antigen CD7 was identified on the leukemic blasts of 13 patients, ten of whom had M1 subtype of leukemia, myeloblastic leukemia without maturation. All the patients showed positive staining with myeloperoxidase and expressed myeloid markers CD13 and/or CD33, but lacked CD11b, a marker of more mature myeloid cells. Combined staining with myeloperoxidase and CD7 of the cells from four patients revealed coexpression of both markers on the same cells. None of the patients expressed the two other T-cell antigens CD2 or CD5. All ten patients who had DNA analysis showed germline configuration of TCR beta and gamma chain genes. One patient had chromosomal translocation involving 11q23, t(11; 19) (q23; p13), which is the site frequently associated with both myeloid and lymphoid malignancies. The clinical implications of this subgroup of patients need further study on more patients, and need longer follow-up.

A 83-year-old man was diagnosed with primary myelofibrosis based on the presence of leukoerythroblastosis, splenomegaly, chromosome 46 XY, a dry tap bone marrow aspiration and fibrosis on bone marrow biopsy, when he was admitted for herpes zoster in June 1987. He was admitted for a second time with multiple subcutaneous tumors over his entire body in July, 1989. He had mild splenomegaly, but no hepatomegaly nor lymphadenopathy. Laboratory tests were as follows: RBC 214 x 10(4)/microliters, Hb 5.1 g/dl, Ht 17.7%, WBC 3,200/microliters with leukoerythroblastosis, platelets 11.6 x 10(4)/microliters, s-lysozyme 251 micrograms/ml, u-lysozyme 770 micrograms/ml, NAP ratio 98%, score 278. Bone marrow aspiration resulted in a dry tap. Bone marrow biopsy showed marked fibrosis. Histologic examination of subcutaneous tumor biopsy specimens revealed a diffuse infiltration of monocytes with flexuous nuclei. These cells were positive for alpha-naphtyl butyrate esterase stain, and negative for peroxidase, alpha-naphtol ASD chloroacetate esterase stain and platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa stain (APAAP). Ultrastructurally, these cells were mostly monocytes and promonocytes, while phenotypically, CD11b, CD13, CD14, CD33 and HLA-DR were positive. These date indicated that the subcutaneous tumors originated from monocytes.

A new human leukemia cell line with megakaryocytic features, designated UT-7, was established from the bone marrow of a patient with acute megakaryoblastic leukemia. Surface marker analysis revealed that the majority of the cells reacted with monoclonal antibodies against platelet glycoprotein Ib (CD42b), glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (CD41a), MY 7 (CD13), MY 9 (CD33), and glycophorin A antigens. Cytogenetic analysis showed a human male near-tetraploid karyotype with a modal chromosome number of 92-96. Flow cytometry-derived DNA histograms demonstrated that the majority of the cells spontaneously contained 4 N DNA ploidy levels. Ultrastructural study showed that platelet peroxidase activity was weakly positive but myeloperoxidase activity was negative. Ferritin and theta-granule, which have been used as ultrastructural markers for the erythroid lineage, could not be detected. In response to phorbol myristate acetate, platelet factor 4 and beta-thromboglobulin, which were specifically synthesized in the process of megakaryocyte maturation, dramatically increased in UT-7 cells. This was accompanied by an increase in cell size, ploidy level, platelet peroxidase activity, and the surface density of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antigen. These findings suggest that UT-7 is a new leukemic cell line with megakaryocytic features and with the potential to differentiate into cells with more mature megakaryocytic properties in response to phorbol myristate acetate. This cell line showed strict dependency on interleukin 3 (IL-3), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, or erythropoietin. The maximal effective doses of IL-3, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and erythropoietin for proliferation in liquid culture were 10 units/ml, 1 ng/ml, and 1 unit/ml, respectively. These concentrations were comparable to the doses that maximally stimulate the clonal growth of normal hemopoietic cells. IL-6 could stimulate the proliferation of UT-7 cells but not maintain the line in long-term culture. UT-7 cells may be a useful model for (a) the analysis of gene regulation of megakaryocytic maturation-associated proteins expressed in the process of megakaryocytic differentiation and (b) the study of signal transduction of hemopoietic factors associated with megakaryocytopoiesis.

We describe a unique case of a young girl with adult type chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML). Clinically she had an extramedullary blastic crisis (BC) prior to that in peripheral blood and in bone marrow. The blasts were primitive cells and always CD7, CD33, CD34 and HLA DR-positive. During the course of illness the blasts became negative for CD5 and positive for CD41a and for platelet-peroxidase. Additional chromosomal appearances and subsequently clonal evolution were seen during the clinical course. Surface antigen modulation and morphological changes, which were observed by microscopic examination and flow cytometry, were induced by in vitro incubation. Surface antigen modulation was more induced in the presence of phytohemagglutinine-conditioned media (PHA-CM) but the effects of PHA-CM on morphological changes were not clear.

A five-year-old boy initially diagnosed common ALL was developed to acute myelomonocytic leukemia. At onset, the bone marrow was hypercellular and 77% of the cells were blasts, mainly lymphoblast-like cells and cytogenetic study demonstrated 45, XY, -7 in all blasts. Cytochemically most of those blasts were negative for peroxidase, sudan black B, alpha-NB esterase staining. The immunological phenotype was J5 (CD10)+, I2 (HLA-DR)+, SmIg-, CyIgmu-, Leu1 (CD5)-, OKT11 (CD2)-, MY7 (CD13)-, suggesting common ALL. Eight months later, the bone marrow cells were occupied with large sized blasts which were almost positive for peroxidase stain and the cells showed coexpression of Mo1 (CD11b)+, MY4 (CD14)+, MY7+, MY9 (CD33)+, MCS2 (CD13)+, I2+, J5-, B4 (CD19)-, Mo2 (CDw14)-, at relapse. He died 2 years and 6 months after his initial diagnosis. An autopsy was performed which revealed generalized infiltration of leukemic cells and aspergillosis of the lung. In general, monosomy 7 is associated with myelodysplastic syndrome in childhood, and is terminated to acute myeloblastic leukemia. In this case, bone marrow blasts demonstrated monosomy 7 cytogenetically, and this case was considered as an acute mixed lineage leukemia of bilineal type. And this case proved that a monosomy 7 can also be terminated to acute mixed lineage leukemia with both lymphoid and myeloid phenotypes.

The expression of myeloperoxidase (MPO) was studied in 100 cases of acute leukaemia (83 with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and 17 acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) by both a conventional cytochemical method and the immunocytochemical antiperoxidase (APAAP) technique using the monoclonal antibody MPO7. In each case the staining was evaluated by light microscopical examination (percentage of positive cells). Of the 83 cases of AML, 78 (93.9%) were positive for MPO7 compared with 70 (84.3%) by cytochemistry. Antibodies against the myeloid markers CD13 and CD33 were positive in 71 (85.5%) and 70 (84.3%) cases, respectively. Importantly, all cases of ALL were negative for both MPO7 and cytochemical MPO staining even when they were positive for CD13 and CD33. These results indicate that the anti-myeloperoxidase antibody MPO7 is the most sensitive and specific reagent for the diagnosis of AML and should therefore be included in routine immunophenotyping panels.

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.

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.
