To provide baseline information on the immunoarchitecture of normal bone marrow, we studied cryostat-cut, frozen, and paraffin-embedded, fixed tissue sections prepared from 21 core biopsies of normal bone marrow obtained during bone marrow harvests for transplantation. A large panel of antibodies was applied that included, for frozen tissue, Leu-6 (CD1), T11 (CD2), Leu-3a (CD4), Leu-1 (CD5), Leu-2a (CD8), J5 (CD10), My7 (CD13), Leu-11 (CD16), B4 (CD19), B1 (CD20), B2 (CD21), Tac (CD25), My9 (CD33), T200 (CD45), NKH-1 (CD56), kappa and lambda chains, beta F1, Ki-67, HLA-DR, TQ1, and keratin, and for fixed tissue, leukocyte common antigen (CD45), L26 (CD20), LN1 (CDw75), LN2 (CD74), LN3, LN4, LN5, MB1 (CD45R), MB2, MT1 (CD43), MT2 (CD45R), UCHL1 (CD45R0), BM1, Ki-1 (CD30), Leu-M1 (CD15), lysozyme, KP1 (CD68), actin, S100, neuron-specific enolase, vimentin, and keratin. On fresh-frozen sections CD19 and CD2 were the most reliable and sensitive markers for B and T cells, staining 5% and 9% of marrow cells, respectively. Immunoglobulins generally showed heavy background staining, which frequently precluded an accurate assessment. The CD4 to CD8 ratio in the bone marrow was reversed from that of peripheral blood. On fixed tissues, leukocyte common antigen was found in 14% of the marrow cells, corresponding roughly to the lymphocyte population. L26, a pan-B-cell marker, stained 3% of the marrow cells. Among the other B-cell markers, LN1 and MB2 stained a large number of cells (40% to 70%), indicating reactivity with cells of the myeloid or erythroid series in addition to lymphocytes. Among the T-cell markers, UCHL1 and MT1 stained 66% and 50% of the cells, respectively, which could be explained by their cross-reactivity with myeloid cells. Nonspecific myelomonocytic markers (Leu-M1, KP1, and lysozyme) also showed reactivity in a high percentage of cells. No particular architectural distribution patterns of B or T lymphocytes were noted in either frozen or fixed bone marrow specimens. The results of this study provide normal baseline data for the immunohistologic application of hematopoietic and lymphoid markers on frozen or fixed bone marrow biopsy specimens.

Cell line KHM-2B expressing two oncogene products, c-myc and bcl-2, was established from a patient with acute lymphocytic leukemia with an 8;14 and 14;18 chromosome translocation. Surface marker studies of the cell line showed that the cells were positive for HLA-DR, CALLA (CD10), B1 (CD20) and B4 (CD19), but negative for T11 (CD2). The fresh cells from peripheral blood of the patient had no surface immunoglobulins, whereas KHM-2B cells were positive for mu.lambda type surface immunoglobulin. A cytogenetic analysis of the cell line revealed two translocations, t (8;14) (q24;q32) and t(14;18)(q32;q21). Rearrangement of the c-myc and bcl-2 genes was detected by Southern blot analysis of the KHM-2B DNA. Northern blot analysis revealed production of c-myc and bcl-2 mRNAs. These results indicated that two oncogenes were activated by two translocations to immunoglobulin genes.

Lymphocyte subpopulations in human cord blood have been examined using monoclonal antibodies, visualized with immunogold. The proportions of T11, T4, T8, and B1 cells in cord blood are very similar to values in adult peripheral blood. Some evidence of lymphocyte immaturity in cord blood is suggested by the presence of 12% CALLA-positive cells and the sum of T4 and T8 cells significantly exceeding the number of T11 cells; however, there were no TdT-positive cells. The presence of CALLA-positive lymphocytes in normal cord blood should be borne in mind when investigating blood smears from neonates for congenital leukemia.

Bone marrow and peripheral blood of 25 healthy bone marrow donors from our allogeneic bone marrow transplantation program were assessed for cell subsets bearing T11(CD2), T4(CD4), T8(CD8), B1(CD20) J5(CALLA, CD10), Mo1(CD11b), MY7(CD13). Mo2(CD14), MY9(CD33) and NKH-1 antigens. Bone marrow cell samples were taken for analysis at the start or at the end of the harvesting procedure of aspiration from the iliac crest. All samples were analysed on a flow cytometer at the lymphocyte window as obtained on the two-parameter (L90oLSxFALS) scatter diagram. There were no differences in the lymphocyte subset composition of bone marrow samples taken at the start or at the end of the harvesting procedure. In contrast to the majority of literature data, a high CD4/CD8 ratio was detected in bone marrow samples: it did not differ from that in the peripheral blood. The proportions of CD2 and CD4 T cell markers in the bone marrow correlated with those in the peripheral blood, thus further documenting a substantial bone marrow contamination with peripheral blood cells. A relatively large aspirate volume (4-5 ml) obtained from individual aspiration sites was identified as the only factor possibly accounting for the high-level contamination of bone marrow samples with peripheral blood. This conclusion was corroborated by low T cell proportions and low CD4/CD8 ratios found in the bone marrow washed from bone fragments and in bone marrow samples aspirated at first bone puncture in a volume of 1.0 ml. Taken together, these findings imply that less vigorous suction may decrease the number of T lymphocytes in bone marrow harvested for transplantation purposes.

Pretreatment peripheral and/or bone marrow blasts from 14 patients with acute unclassifiable leukemia (AUL) expressing myeloid related cell-surface antigen (CDII) or megakaryocyte-platelet related cell-surface antigen (OKM6), were isolated for further analysis in this study. Among 11 cases of CD11+AUL, despite a lack of myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, one patient's blasts possessed Auer rod in a basophilic cytoplasm and another one's blasts expressed MPO maintaining the same surface phenotype after 20 months of his clinical course. The blast from 2 cases possessed both myelomonocytic and monocyte-specific antigens on the cell-surface, whereas the remaining nine cases completely lacked monocyte-specific antigen which is detectable by monoclonal antibodies, Mo2, My4 and Leu M3 (CD14). In addition, we revealed the presence of MPO protein in the cytoplasm of 3 cases of AUL patients by cytoplasmic immunofluorescence test utilizing monoclonal antibody (MA1). Following these results, the former was diagnosed as acute myelomonocytic leukemia (AMMoL) and the latter as acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) by immunophenotypic analysis using flow cytometry (FACS IV) and cytoplasmic immunofluorescence test. We have also described three cases of acute megakaryocytic leukemia which were demonstrated by the presence of megakaryocyte-platelet-related cell-surface antigens detected by utilizing flow cytometry and monoclonal antibodies in addition to both the PPO activity which was shown by ultrastructural cytochemistry, and the emergence of differentiation antigens while culturing these leukemic cells. The blast of 1 case possessed both platelet GPIb and GPIIb/IIIa cell-surface antigens detected by 5F1 (CD36), AN51 (CDw42), and J15, P2 and HPL2 (CDw41), respectively, whereas the remaining two cases almont lacked the GPIb cell-surface antigen. Hence, the former was diagnosed as immature (pro) megakaryocytic leukemia and the latter as acute megakaryoblastic leukemia from the viewpoint of immunophenotypic analysis as will be discussed in this article. These leukemic blasts did not express both T-cell lineage antigens which are detectable by monoclonal antibodies, T6 (CD1), T11 (CD2), T3 (CD3), T4 (CD4), T1 (CD5), Tp40, Leu9 (CD7), T8 (CD8), and B-cell lineage antigens which are detectable by monoclonal antibodies, B4 (CD19), B1 (CD20), B2 (CD21) and J5 (CD10).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Acute leukemia was diagnosed in 62 adults and children over a recent 13-month period. Using light microscopy, cytochemical profiles, surface markers, and cytogenetics, 25 cases were classified as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and 32 as acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The remaining 5 cases of de novo acute leukemia were unclassifiable. The routine cytochemical battery used on these 62 cases included: myeloperoxidase, sudan black B, nonspecific esterase, and periodic acid-Schiff (PAS). Flow markers utilized were: T3, T4, T5, T8, T10, T11, B1, B4, kappa, lambda, Ia, CALLA, Mo1, Mo2, My4, My7, My8, and My9. TdT was performed by immunoperoxidase and ELISA methods. The five unclassified cases were cytochemically negative and expressed no B- or T-cell-specific antigens, or TdT positivity. The morphologic differential diagnosis was between FAB L-2 and M-1. Karyotypic abnormalities involving chromosomes 3 and 7 were suggestive of myeloid origin in 2 of 4 patients studied. Flow cytometry demonstrated My7 on greater than 50% of blasts from two cases. Myeloperoxidase ultracytochemistry showed reaction product in small primary granules of blasts from all 5 cases. Positive cells contained only 1-2 granules/cell profile. The number of positive cells per case was in the range 10-20%. We conclude from this study that ultracytochemistry is very useful in providing definitive diagnosis and accurate subclassification of some AML FAB M-1 cases, particularly when light microscopic cytochemistry, cytogenetics, and flow cytometric markers are noncontributory. We propose to designate these acute "unclassified" leukemias as AML FAB M-1 "microgranular" type.

We studied the mechanisms whereby human T cells and NK cells are activated and directed to lyse tumor targets through the CD2 (T11/E-rosette) Ag. Using two cloned NK lines, we showed that these cells, as had previously been shown for T cells, could be directed to lyse an "NK-resistant" tumor target in the presence of antibody heterodimers. These heterodimers consisted of a (mAb) to CD2 (anti-T11(2) or anti-T11(3] linked to a mAb recognizing the tumor cell (J5, anti-CALLA). However, distinct differences between NK cells and T cells were observed with regard to the requirements for such directed lysis: first, only one epitope of CD2 on NK cells (either T11(2) or T11(3] needed to be recognized by the antibody heterodimer in order for directed lysis to occur, whereas for T cells both T11(2) and T11(3) epitopes had to be recognized. Second, in confirmation of previous data with monomeric anti-T11(2) or anti-T11(3) antibody, heterodimers constructed with these reagents enhanced conjugate formation between NK cells and tumor targets, whereas no such enhancement was seen with T cells. All types of heterodimer directed lysis were dependent on the adhesion molecule LFA-1, as an anti-LFA-1 antibody-blocked lysis. Third, whereas in T cells lysis mediated through CD2 appeared to be regulated by CD3 but not vice versa, all types of lysis by NK cells appeared to be regulated through CD2. Finally we showed that F(ab')2 fragments of the anti-T11(2) and anti-T11(3) antibodies could activate NK cells, but were unable to activate T cells either as cloned cytolytic lines, or in populations of PBL. The implications of our findings with regard to the role of CD2 in the activation of cytolytic cells is discussed.

We investigated the ability of human T cells to be directed to lyse murine and human tumor targets by antibodies (Ab) to the T11-E rosette (CD2) receptor. We found that the human cytotoxic T lymphocyte clone TBI-6, which is specific for the Epstein-Barr virus-transformed cell line, CM-EBV, could be directed to lyse the Fc receptor-positive murine tumor P388D1, by the combination of anti-T11(2) plus anti-T11(3) Ab. This activation and lysis was demonstrable only with an Fc receptor expressing tumor target and only with those Ab or with anti-T3 (CD3) Ab but not with other anti-T11 Ab or other Ab directed against surface structures on the clone. We therefore constructed heterodimeric Ab consisting of anti-T11(2) or anti-T11(3) Ab and the J5 anti-common acute lymphoblastic leukemic antigen (anti-CALLA) Ab. The purity and retained functional properties of the dimers were demonstrated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels, fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis on relevant cells, and by the ability of these conjugates to activate human peripheral blood lymphocytes to proliferate. These heterodimeric Ab conjugates were shown to be able to direct the lysis of CALLA+ targets by TBI-6. The specificity of this lysis was demonstrated by the inability of these heterodimers to direct the lysis of CALLA- targets by the cytotoxic T lymphocyte clone, and by the ability of excess free J5, but not an irrelevant Ab of the same isotype, to block this type of lysis. The potential clinical significance of these reagents is discussed.

In order to investigate the clinical significance of surface antigen analysis in acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML), the blasts from 196 patients with AML were analyzed prospectively with a panel of 16 monoclonal antibodies. The antibodies were selected to identify differentiation-associated antigens of either the myeloid lineage (MY9, PM-81, AML-2-23, MY7, MCS-1, MY8, Mo1, MY1, MY4, Mo2), T cell lineage (T101, T11), B cell lineage (B1, B4) or multiple lineages [J5 (CALLA), HLA-DR]. Independent morphological review and classification by French-American-British (FAB) criteria was performed in 161 of the 196 cases. One or more myeloid surface antigens were detected on the blasts of 195 cases, while B and T cell markers were detected on 0% to 2% of cases. When both blood and marrow samples were studied on the same patient, very few differences were noted between the antigenic profiles of the paired specimens. The frequency of expression of individual myeloid antigens ranged from 91% (PM-81) to 29% (Mo2). Expression of individual antigens was found to correlate significantly with several clinical parameters including FAB classification, cytochemical staining for alpha naphthyl acetate esterase, leukocyte count, and the presence of extramedullary disease at presentation. Two myeloid antigens (MY4 and MY7) predicted for a low rate of complete remission (CR) to standard induction chemotherapy. MY4+ cases (37% of the total population) had a CR rate of 53%, while M4- cases had a CR rate of 69% (P = .03). MY7+ cases (57% of the total population) had a CR rate of 55% while MY7- cases had a CR rate of 73% (P = .01). Neither MY4 nor MY7 antigen expression was correlated with patient age. Paired combinations of antigens were also examined. The [MY4- MY7-] phenotype was exhibited by 32% of all cases and was associated with an 82% CR rate while the CR rate of all other cases was 54% (P = .001). The expression of three antigens (HLA-DR, MY8, Mo1) was associated with a decreased continuous complete remission (P less than .05, median follow-up time of 19 months). Expression of MY8 antigen was also associated with decreased survival (P = .03). These results confirm earlier reports of antigenic heterogeneity in AML, and indicate that immunologically defined subgroups of AML patients which are of potential clinical significance can be identified.

We constructed a series of MAb heterodimers consisting of the J5 (anti-common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen [CALLA]) antibody and antibodies to a variety of structures present on the surface of activated human T cells, including CD3 antigen (T cell receptor-associated glycoproteins), CD2 antigen (T11/E-rosette receptor), CD25 antigen (IL-2 receptor), and the transferrin receptor. We tested the ability of these heterodimers to direct a CD2 + CD3 + CD8 + CD4 - CD25 + transferrin receptor + MHC-restricted human cytolytic T lymphocyte (CTL) clone to lyse a CALLA + human tumor in vitro. Only heterodimers containing an anti-CD3 antibody or activating antibodies to CD2 could direct the clone to lyse these human tumor targets, even when the clone was additionally activated with anti-CD3 or anti-CD2 antibodies. Our findings may have implications in the design of strategies for the use of such reagents in the treatment of human neoplasia.
