It has been considered that gastric large B cell lymphoma mainly consists of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALToma) with large cell transformation. However, debate continues about the cell lineage. We analyzed 61 operated cases of gastric B cell lymphoma, mainly focusing on 40 cases of diffuse large cell lymphoma (DLCL). Immunohistologically, two cases were classified as CD10-positive follicular lymphoma, 19 cases were low-grade MALToma, 11 CD10-negative DLCL with a component of low-grade MALToma (high-grade MALToma), 12 CD10-positive DLCL, and 17 CD10-negative DLCL without MALToma (pure DLCL). Lymphoepithelial lesion (LEL) was found in all -cases of high-grade MALToma, and in eight of these its invasion was confined to the mucosa and submucosa. Expression of Bcl-6 was detected in two cases of high-grade MALToma. Only two cases of CD10-positive DLCL had large cell LEL, and seven cases showed tumor invasion beyond the submucosa. All 12 cases were positive for Bcl-6, and a delicate meshwork of CD35 (Ber-MAC-DRC)-positive follicular dendritic cells was detected in eight cases. Pure DLCL of all 17 cases reached the proper muscle layer or more, and expression of Bcl-6 was detected in 10 cases. For patients with pure DLCL, overall survival was significantly (p <0.05) worse than those of high-grade MALToma and CD10-positive DLCL by Kaplan-Meier and log-rank methods. Clinical staging and Bcl-6 expression were also good prognostic factors in patients with DLCL. Three groups of gastric DLCL each had unique histologic findings, immunohistologic characteristics, and prognosis.

We report the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of various immunophenotypes characteristic of each class of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) based on analysis of 352 morphologically well-characterized B-cell NHLs and 175 benign lymph nodes (LNs) using 2-color flow cytometry. All B-cell NHLs that exhibited a characteristic immunophenotype (except diffuse large B-cell lymphoma) had a high NPV. The immunophenotypes of small lymphocytic lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma showed high specificity, but only small lymphocytic lymphoma also showed a high PPV. One third of follicular lymphomas coexpressed CD23 and CD10. Diffuse large B-cell NHL showed no consistent immunophenotype. About 90% of all benign LNs expressed no substantial amounts of CD5, CD10, or CD23. Most benign LNs also failed to express substantial amounts of immunoglobulin heavy chains. In contrast, about 90% of NHLs showed expression of 1 or 2 heavy chains. The expression pattern of immunoglobulin light chains was not found helpful in favoring one lymphoma type over another. The usefulness of each immunophenotype for each lymphoma group is of particular diagnostic importance in limited specimens, such as fine-needle aspiration biopsies, small core biopsies, body effusions, extranodal sites, and nodal tissues with various artifacts.

In the REAL classification system, follicular lymphomas (FL) were subdivided into three grades depending on the number of blasts (6). In this study, we were interested in defining biological parameters possibly being important in the delineation of subgroups. Between 1990 and 1998, biological and cytogenetic investigations were performed on 91 FL. Clonal aberrations were found in all cases. The tumours were subclassified according to the blast content and the morphology of the centrocytes into 29 FL 1, 33 FL 2, 15 FL 3, and 14 FL 3 with a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma component (FL 3 + DLBL). They were characterised by classical cytogenetics, for their mitotic (MI) and proliferative (PI) indices, and CD10, bcl-2, and p53-expression. In contrast to FL 1 and FL 2, which showed a common genetic background with t(14;18), and only differed by their blast content and MI/PI, FL 3 (with or without associated DLBL) turned out to be an inhomogeneous group. 11 follicular lymphomas (with > 150 blasts/10HPF) still showed maturation to centrocytes. They were positive for CD10 and harboured the t(14;18) in 73%. These cases correspond to a "high grade" variant of centroblastic-centrocytic lymphoma according to the Kiel classification (FL 3a). In 18 cases with a follicular or follicular and diffuse growth pattern, the infiltrate consisted of centroblasts exclusively. These tumours were CD10+ in only 50% and were t(14;18)+ in only 22%. Secretory differentiation (clg+) was found in 44%. They were--with respect to primary and secondary chromosome aberrations--more comparable to a follicular variant of DLBL and hence, correspond to centroblastic lymphoma, follicular or centroblastic lymphoma, follicular and diffuse according to the Kiel classification (FL 3b). By histomorphological, biological and cytogenetic investigations, therefore, FL 3 can be delineated into two different biological subgroups with obviously different transformation pathways.

Primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma is a locally highly aggressive but poorly disseminating tumor composed of medium sized or large cells most probably of thymic medullary origin. It has a mature B-cell phenotype, typically lacks immunoglobulin expression and has variable defects in expression of HLA-molecules. We present here a cell line, MedB-1, derived from such a tumor. As is frequently found in mediastinal B-cell lymphomas in situ, MedB-1 is CD10(-), CD19(+), CD21(-), CD22(+), CD23(+), CD25(-), CD37(+), CD38(-), CD39(+), CD40(+), CD54(+), CD95(+). Like the parental tumor, MedB-1 lacks HLA-A,B,C alpha-chains and beta(2)microglobulin and expresses HLA-D molecules at decreased levels. Both parental tumor and MedB-1 cells are clonally related as shown by immunoglobulin heavy chain gene rearrangement analysis. Unlike the parental tumor tissue, the MedB-1 cell line cytoplasmically expresses IgG/kappa in a very small subset of cells under standard culture conditions. MedB-1 does not contain any Epstein-Barr virus DNA. In a tissue adhesion assay MedB-1 cells showed an extensive binding to the medullary region of normal thymus. Altogether, MedB-1 is a suitable tool for functional and molecular analysis of this distinct lymphoma entity.

The clinical significance and prognostic value of CD10 in de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is largely unknown. We retrospectively studied 19 men and 9 women based on the following criteria: (1) DLBCL with no evidence of concomitant or antecedent follicular lymphoma; (2) available flow cytometric immunophenotyping data, including CD10 status; (3) older than 15 years; (4) specific exclusion of high-grade, Burkitt-like lymphoma; and (5) exclusion of primary cutaneous DLBCL. When available, clinical data at diagnosis, including components of the international prognostic index, were reviewed. Eleven cases were CD10+, and 17 were CD10-. There was no significant difference between the CD10+ and CD10- groups in age, sex, stage, performance status, extranodal involvement, or serum lactate dehydrogenase levels at diagnosis. However, in the 26 cases for which follow-up data were available, the CD10+ group displayed a shorter overall survival than the CD10- group (8 vs 30 months). Although the clinical findings at diagnosis are similar in CD10+ and CD10- DLBCL, CD10 expression is associated with shortened overall survival. Therefore, our data suggest CD10 expression may have prognostic importance in adults with de novo DLBCL.

The Revised European-American Lymphoma classification gives Burkitt-like lymphoma (BLL) provisional status, leaving unresolved the differential diagnosis with Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This study compared the biologic features of adult BLL and DLBCL. The phenotypic distinction between BLL and DLBCL was determined by immunohistochemical staining of frozen tissue from 13 patients with BLL and 55 patients with DLBCL by using an extensive antibody panel including Ki-67, CD10, CD11a/lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1alpha (LFA-1alpha), CD18/LFA-1beta, CD58/LFA-3, and CD54/intercellular adhesion molecule, CD8 for tumor-infiltrating cytotoxic T cells (T-TILs), CD44 homing receptor, and p53 and Bcl-2 oncogenic proteins. Compared with DLBCL, BLL had a higher proliferative rate (mean Ki-67, 88% versus 53%), greater expression of CD10 and p53 antigens, and decreased expression of Bcl-2. BLL cases had a consistent absence of one or more cell adhesion molecules (92% versus 27%), low T-TIL numbers, and absence of CD44 homing receptor (92% versus 14%). The t(8;14) translocation was identified in 80% of BLL cases, but no patients with BLL had the t(14;18) translocation. In a 10-year analysis, median survival of patients with BLL was 1.2 years, and that of patients with DLBCL was 2.5 years. Although the proportion of patients cured was similar in the 2 groups, BLL patients had an increased risk of early death. We conclude that BLL can be recognized by its combined morphologic and phenotypic features and that it represents a high-grade lymphoma much closer to BL than DLBCL. Retention of the BLL category or inclusion of BLL as a variant of BL is biologically and clinically more appropriate than absorbing the category of BLL into DLBCL. (Blood. 2001;97:3713-3720)

CD10 expression in various grades and interfollicular infiltrates of follicular lymphoma (FL) has not been well documented. Immunohistochemical staining for CD10 (clone 56C6) was performed on paraffin-embedded tissue from 26 cases of classic FL. Negative or weak expression of CD10 was more frequent in grade III (5/6 [83%]) than in grade I FLs (3/15 [20%]). CD10+ interfollicular infiltrates were present in 16 cases. Six (38%) of 16 cases showed that CD10 expression was strong or moderate in follicular areas but weak or negative in interfollicular infiltrates. Our results suggest that CD10 expression is frequently weak to negative in grade III and in interfollicular infiltrates of FLs. Therefore, lack of CD10 expression on small specimens, such as from needle core biopsy or fine-needle aspiration, does not preclude the possibility of a diagnosis of FL. Furthermore, lack of CD10 expression in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma does not exclude the possibility that the neoplastic lymphocytes are of follicle center cell origin.

The coexpression of CD5 and CD10 has previously been reported in cases of intermediate- and high-grade lymphomas and in precursor B cells in normal or regenerating bone marrow. We report 3 cases of low-grade B-cell lymphoma that were found to coexpress CD5 and CD10 at the time of initial diagnosis. The first case was classified as small lymphocytic lymphoma; the second as follicle center lymphoma, follicular grade 1; and the third as small B-cell lymphoma otherwise not specified. Currently, the clinical implication of the coexpression of CD5 and CD10 is not known. We describe this finding to highlight the difficulty that may be encountered in classifying lymphomas in cases where this coexpression is present.

A novel recurrent translocation t(11;14)(p11;q32) was found in three patients with splenic marginal zone B cell lymphoma (MZBCL). Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies with IgH probes revealed in all cases involvement of the IgH locus, with breakpoint downstream of the IGVH sequences. Partner genes at 11p11 were not identified. The translocation defined the stem line in two patients, who carried additional cytogenetic aberrations, including a 17p deletion, present in both cases. In one patient a 7q- chromosome was the primary cytogenetic defect, the t(11;14) having been found in four out of 11 abnormal metaphase cells at the time of transformation into high-grade MZBCL. Hematological features in all cases included splenomegaly with peripheral blood (PB) involvement by a monoclonal B cell population consisting of lymphocytes with villous projections and several blast-like cells. The immunophenotype was CD19+; CD22bright+; CD23-, CD10-, CD5-, surface Igbright+. A bone biopsy in one patient revealed an interstitial infiltration with an intrasinusoidal pattern of growth. Histological studies on spleen specimens in two patients showed an expanded marginal zone, with small lymphocytes and several blast-like cells. One patient had a therapy-demanding disease, with partial, short-term responses to cytotoxic treatment; one patient transformed into a high-grade MZBCL involving the gut, the PB and the bone marrow 2 years after diagnosis; one patient was unresponsive to cytotoxic treatment and underwent splenectomy. The t(11;14)(p11;q32) may define a subset of splenic MZBCL with a high-grade component and a relatively aggressive clinical behavior.

We analyzed 53 cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) to determine whether expression of CD10 is a relevant biologic parameter. Tumor morphologic features were assessed semiquantitatively. Bcl-2 protein expression was studied by immunohistochemical analysis. The presence or absence of CD10 by flow cytometry was correlated with clinical and pathologic characteristics. CD10+ (23 cases) and CD10- (30 cases) DLBCLs were indistinguishable based on age, sex, extranodal presentation, B symptoms, clinical stage, morphologic features, or bcl-2 expression. However, cases with a CD10+ phenotype showed a significantly lower rate of complete remission. Cases expressing bcl-2 showed trends toward a lower rate of complete remission and poorer overall survival. Examination of CD10 and bcl-2 interaction revealed that the prognostic effects for both of these antigens were due to a subset of CD10+ bcl-2-positive cases. Compared with cases expressing one or neither of these markers, patients with dual-positive tumors had a poorer complete response rate to initial therapy and strikingly worse overall survival. While CD10+ and CD10- DLBCLs are similar with regard to a variety of clinical and pathologic features, CD10 and bcl-2 coexpressing tumors are an extremely high-risk subset based on response to therapy and overall survival.
