Cells from 82 patients with leukemia in acute phase (40 ANLL, 1 AUL, 36 ALL, 5 CGL in blast crisis) were studied for the expression of mature cell markers of the major nonlymphocytic cell lineages (monocytes, granulocytes, erythrocytes and platelets) using monoclonal antibodies. In addition, cells were examined for the presence of HLA-A, B, C antigens, Ia antigens and common ALL antigen, as well as Fc receptors capable of binding murine immunoglobulins. Approximately one-third of ANLL specimens lacked any of the mature-cell differentiation markers studied. These were always in the relatively undifferentiated morphological subgroups (M1 and M2). Some of the specimens in these groups also expressed little or no HLA-A, B, C and/or Ia antigen. Of the lineage-specific MAb, FMC32 and FMC34, which bind to monocytes, and monocytes plus granulocytes respectively, gave the most interesting results. Together with the anti-CALLA antibody J5, they contributed to the differential diagnosis of ANLL and ALL. In addition they detected phenotypic heterogeneity within the FAB types of ANLL, particularly the M1 and M2 groups. Binding of murine IgG2a and IgG3 antibodies, apparently via Fc receptors, was commonly observed with ANLL cells. This is a potentially serious source of "false positives" in studies using murine MAb with human leukemic cells.

Sixty-five cryopreserved leukemic samples from children diagnosed and treated as having acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) were retrospectively examined for the presence of lymphoid and myeloid associated antigens by indirect immunofluorescence using monoclonal antibodies. Expectedly, the majority of these specimens expressed antigens known to be expressed on lymphoid, and not myeloid malignancies. These included the common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen (CALLA), the p32 B-cell associated antigen, and T-cell associated antigens. Leukemic cells from the 8 remaining patients expressed antigens known to be present on both myeloid and lymphoid leukemias. These included HLA/DR, and the antigens identified by BA-1 and BA-2. Cells from 2 of these 8 patients reacted with antibodies that define antigens present on normal and malignant myeloid cells. Both specimens reacted with 1G10, an anti-granulocyte antibody, and one reacted with 5F1 which reacts with monocytes, nucleated red blood cells, megakaryocytes and platelets. One of these patients relapsed while receiving ALL therapy, and the morphology of her leukemic cells became characteristic of acute monocytic leukemia (AMoL). The second patient failed ALL therapy but responded to standard acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) therapy, clearing her peripheral blasts. Thus these studies confirm that cell surface phenotyping with monoclonal antibodies can recognize ALL cells that express myeloid rather than lymphoid associated antigens and demonstrate that the malignant cells display a clinical behavior consistent with the diagnosis of ANLL.

The frequency and clinical significance of acute leukemia displaying both lymphoid and myeloid characteristics was determined in 123 consecutive children using a panel of lineage-associated markers. The leukemic blasts from 18 of 95 children (19%) with the diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) by standard diagnostic criteria expressed myeloid-associated cell surface antigens. Despite immunological evidence of lymphoid differentiation (17 CALLA + and one T cell-associated antigen +) and findings of immunoglobulin gene rearrangement, blasts from these patients reacted with one to five monoclonal antibodies identifying myeloid-associated cell surface antigens (My-1, MCS.2, Mo1, SJ-D1, or 5F1). Dual staining with microsphere-conjugated antibodies and analysis by flow cytometry confirmed that some blasts were simultaneously expressing lymphoid- and myeloid-associated antigens. Conversely, blasts from seven of 28 patients (25%) with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL), diagnosed by otherwise standard morphological and cytochemical criteria, expressed lymphoid-associated surface antigens. Dual staining of individual blasts demonstrated simultaneous expression of myeloperoxidase (MPO) (including Auer rods) in association with either T-11, CALLA, or terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase. Blasts from one patient with ANLL demonstrated T cell receptor gene rearrangement, while blasts from another patient demonstrated characteristics associated with T (T-11), B (CALLA and heavy-chain immunoglobulin gene rearrangement), and myeloid (MPO) lineage. There were no consistent cytogenetic abnormalities, and no patient demonstrated independent leukemic clones. Each patient with typical ALL, except for myeloid-associated antigens, achieved complete remission with conventional induction therapy for ALL. By contrast, three of the seven children with ANLL whose blasts expressed the T-11 surface antigen failed ANLL induction therapy. These three patients subsequently achieved remission with ALL therapy.

Rabbit and monkey antisera after appropriate absorption were rendered specific for normal or leukemic lymphoid- and myeloid-associated antigens. Antisera defining a common peripheral blood T-cell antigen, a thymus leukemia antigen, HLA-DR or Ia-like antigen, common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen (CALLA), and a myeloid-monocyte (M) antigen were used in a microcytotoxicity assay to classify leukemic cells from 30 patients in a double blind study. The antisera to the M antigen reacted with adherent peripheral blood cells and polymorphonuclear leukocytes and failed to react with nonadherent mononuclear cells and enriched T-cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells. The M antisera also reacted with U937, a monocytic-type cell line, and with HL60, a promyelocytic-type cell line, but failed to react with T and B lymphoblastoid cell lines. The specificities of the other antisera have been described in previous reports. Cells from three of the patients could not be phenotyped by microcytotoxicity testing. Cells from 25 patients had a consensus morphological or histochemical diagnosis of either acute lymphoblastic leukemia or acute nonlymphocytic leukemia. The serological classification of these patients using the five types of antisera listed above were consistent with the consensus diagnosis. In addition, the lymphoid cancers were further subclassified as to T-, B-, or thymus antigen types. There was no consensus lymphoid versus myeloid diagnosis on cells from two patient. The serological classification in both cases favored a diagnosis of myeloid rather than lymphoid leukemia.

We describe a patient with primary myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) evolving into acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) who had two cytogenetically unrelated abnormal clones. A 68-year-old man presented with refractory anemia with excess of blasts (RAEB) and developed overt ANLL. Two cytogenetically independent clones, one with 5q- and the other with 20q-, were observed when the patient developed ANLL. The clones carrying both 5q- and 20q- were not detected. Leukemic blast cells were positive for peroxidase, naphtol ASD chloroacetate esterase, CD13, CD33, CD34 and HLA-DR, but negative for alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase, CD14, CD10, CD19, CD20, CD1, CD2, CD3, CD5 and CD7. Although there have been a few reports describing the presence of multiple cytogenetically unrelated clones in one patient with MDS, this is the first case report that the 5q- and 20q- anomalies are derived from independent clones.

We have studied leukemic cells, derived from acute nonlymphocytic leukemia with basophilic features and basophilic crisis of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), by cytochemical and ultrastructural examination and analysis of surface markers. Cytochemical results varied from case to case, while the ultrastructural appearances of the granules were different from normal granules. The granules had more delicate granular matrices with or without myelinoid figures, whorled or scroll matrix, multivesicular bodies structures, theta granules, and crystalloid structures. Leukemic cells in all cases had myeloid surface markers with some degree of variability. In addition, they were occasionally positive for lymphoid markers, but not for CD10 and IgE receptors. The present results show that leukemic cells with basophilic features are heterogeneous in their morphology, cytochemistry and surface markers.
