Peripheral blood, bone marrow and/or lymph nodes of 77 patients with T- and B-ALLs/lymphomas were characterized for their surface membrane marker profiles using flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy. Purine metabolism enzyme activities were compared with membrane immunophenotypes. T and B-ALLs/lymphomas subtypes were defined by the expression of surface membrane antigens detected by the monoclonal antibodies. Based on immunophenotyping we found the following characteristic marker profiles: in T-ALL-CD7, CD2, CD1, CD5, CD3, CD4, CD8, CD38, CD71; in T-NHL-CD7,CD2,CD3,CD4,CD5,CD6; in pre-B ALL-CD10, CD19, CD24, HLA-DR, CD34, in B-ALL-CD19, CD20, CD24, HLA-DR, SmIg with kappa or lamda light chains; in B-ALL-weak SmIg, kappa or lambda, CD19, CD20, CD24, CD5, HLA-DR; in B-NHL-CD19, CD20, CD22, CD24, CD5, more intensive SmIg, kappa or lambda. The cells of leukemic cases tended to have more immature phenotypes than those of lymphoma cases. Analysis of purine metabolism enzyme activities showed that there was a correlation between the values of adenosine deaminase (ADA) and purine nucleoside (PNP) and various types of T- and B-ALLs/lymphomas. ADA levels in B-NHL and B-CLL were lower than those in normal cells, while ADA level in T-ALL, T-NHL, pre-B-ALL and B-ALL was higher (the average 185,92,73,63 pkat. 10(-6)cells, respectively). ADA activity was significantly different between lymphocytes of control group and T-ALL(p<0.01), between T-ALL and T-NHL(p<0.05), between T-NHL and B-NHL(p<0.05) and between T-ALL and B-NHL(p<0.05). PNP activities were lower to those in normal cells. ADA/PNP ratio increased mostly in T-ALL, less in T-NHL, pre-B-ALL and B-ALL (10.8 and 5.3 and 2.2, and 2.0 respectively). ADA/PNP ratio was significantly different between T-ALL and pre-B-ALL(p<0.05) and between T-ALL and B-NHL(p<0.05).

While it is generally agreed that in the lymphoid differentiation of B lineage cells there is no stage in which cell-surface immunoglobulin (sIg) and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) are expressed simultaneously, a few B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) cases with this phenotype have been reported. Two such cases and the derived cell lines are reported here, in which the expression of recombination activating gene-1 (RAG-1) was also detected. One case was a CD19+ CD22+ HLA-DR+ sIg+ (gamma, kappa) B-ALL. The cell line (Bay9I) also expressed CD10. Karyotypic analysis revealed t(14;18)(q32;q21) and additional aberrations. In the other case, the fresh leukemia cells expressed CD19, CD24 and HLA-DR antigen. The derived cell line (Tree92) also expressed CD22 and sIg (mu, lambda). The karyotype of the Tree92 cells was t(8;14)(q24;q32) with additional aberrations. Tree92 is the first established cell line having both t(8;14)(q24;q32) and TdT. TdT was detected by Northern blotting as well as indirect immunofluorescence analysis. In addition, both Bay9I and Tree92 expressed RAG-1, as detected by Northern blot analysis. Cross-linking of sIg on Tree92 cells with anti-mu antibody led to significant down-regulation of RAG-1 expression. It seems that there is a sIg+ TdT+ RAG-1+ B lineage differentiation stage, and that signaling through sIg can modulate RAG-1 expression.

Lymphomas of the marginal spleen zone are an entity recently considered as separate by the International Lymphoma Study Group. There are B-cell non Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) of low grade malignancy with a characteristic phenotype that allows to differentiate from mantle lymphomas and other B-cell lymphoproliferative syndromes. The case of a 69-year-old female patient admitted for abdominal pain due to large splenomegaly is reported. Pancytopenia and the presence of atypical large-sized lymphocytes with extensive cytoplasm and a rounded nucleus with indentations, reticulated appearing chromatin and one or several nucleoli were of note in the hemogram. Microscopic examination of the bone marrow demonstrated moderate-degree lymphocytary infiltration with grade I reticulin fibrosis. Laparotomy with splenectomy was performed. White pulp invasion with multifocal infiltration of the red pulp by lymphocytes of the same characteristics as those observed in the peripheral blood and bone marrow were observed on microscopic bone marrow examination. Immunophenotypic study of these lymphocytes was positive for CD19, CD20 and CD22 while being negative for CD5, CD10, CD23, CD25, CD11c and FMC7, the phenotype belonging to the lymphocytes of marginal spleen zone. Following splenectomy the patient recovered hemoperipheral counts and did not undergo additional treatment. The patient died due to septic shock of respiratory origin 4 months later. The clinical, morphologic and immunophenotypic features of marginal spleen zone lymphomas are reported with emphasis on the differences with other B-cell non Hodgkin's lymphomas of low malignancy.

Morphologic, immunologic, cytogenetic, and clinical features were studied in 9 cases of acute undifferentiated leukemia (AUL). These patients were unclassifiable by FAB criteria, they were CD34+ and did not express myeloid- or lymphoid-associated antigens (CD13, CD33, CD14, CD15, CD61, CD19, CD10, CD22, CD7, CD2, CD5, CD3). Clonal abnormalities were seen in 8 of 9 cases. Del(5q) as the sole anomaly was observed in 3 cases; +13 was the primary change in 3 cases, and isolated trisomy 12 was found in 1 patient. A complex karyotype with trisomy 12q, in association with del 17p and trisomy 21q was detected in 1 case. One patient with 5q- relapsed with refractory anemia with excess of blasts; the presence of dysgranulopoiesis and a few blasts with possible monocytoid morphology in the remaining 2 patients point to a "myeloid nature" of these leukemias. Analysis of cytologic features in our 3 patients with +13, in combination with previously reported cases, suggests the occurrence of immature stem cell involvement with limited differentiation potential, possibly more along the myeloid than the lymphoid lineage. The significance of trisomy 12q in this subset of leukemia remains elusive; some clues of minimal differentiation towards the myeloid lineage in our cases are provided by positivity for the CD117 (c-kit) antigen and by relapse with acute myeloid leukemia without maturation (M1) in one patient. We conclude that, with presently available diagnostic techniques, AUL is a rare subset of leukemia, in which cytogenetic changes are confined to a few chromosomes, with prevalent involvement of 5q and of chromosomes 13 and 12. Chromosome findings may be of value in clinical practice, especially in those cases with "myeloid-oriented" karyotype.

We describe a case of bilineal leukemia in a 5-year old boy with a rare immunophenotype and the novel translocation t(9;17)(p11;q11) as the sole chromosomal abnormality. Two immunologically distinct blast cell subsets expressed T-markers (CD2, CD5, CD7) and common ALL markers (TdT, CD19, CD22, CD10), respectively. Both cell populations were CD34 negative. The patient, who presented with CNS leukemia, responded promptly to standard chemotherapy for lymphoblastic leukemia and remains in complete remission 20 months from diagnosis. Other translocations between chromosomes 9 and 17 have been infrequently reported in a variety of leukemias but as yet their biologic significance is unknown. The clinical course of this case suggests that t(9;17)(p11;q11) may not have an adverse influence on the disease outcome. However, the role of t(9;17) in the pathogenesis of this unusual lymphoid phenotype remains unresolved.

Over a period of 3-1/2 years, 86 cases of acute leukemia were analyzed by immunohistochemical (IHC) means on ficoll separated cytospin preparations of peripheral blood and/or bone marrow samples. Antibodies included in the panel were specific against Tdt, HLA-DR, CD19/CD20/CD22, CALLA (CD10), CD2, CD11C as well as against Ig heavy chains. Of 86 cases analyzed, 48 cases were of ALL, (25 of common pre-B ALL, 15 of pre-B/NULL and 8 of T ALL phenotype), twenty-four (24) out of 86 cases were of non-lymphoblastic (AML/AMML) type. In six cases, there was suggestion of a mixed lineage, while in 8 cases there was inconclusive diagnosis. Mean age was lower in common ALL sub-set of ALL as compared to pre-B/NULL group (i.e., 8 vs 12 years), while in non-lymphoblastic group it was 36 years. T cell phenotype was invariably seen in young adults, who usually presented with a mediastinal mass.

A case of CLL with two different cellular populations is reported. A 50-year-old man was evaluated for persistent absolute lymphocytosis. A peripheral blood smear revealed numerous small lymphocytes (83% of white blood cells counted). Frequent Grumpecht shadows were present, too. On bone marrow aspirate smears lymphocytes comprised 85% of the total cells counted, and the bone marrow biopsy showed a mixed nodular-interstitial infiltration pattern. The immunophenotypic study showed two different leukemic populations. The first one (comprising 79% leukemic cells) was CD5+, CD19+, CD10-, CD20+, CD18-, CD22-, CD23+ +, lambda dim, and FMC7-. The second population (comprising 21% leukemic cells) was CD5+, CD19+, CD10-, CD20+, CD18+, CD22+, CD23+, lambda+ +, and FMC7+. Gene rearrangement studies detected the germline and one rearranged band in Jk blot with each restriction endonuclease. In the Jh blot the germline and two rearranged bands were detected with EcoRI and BamHI and three rearranged bands with HindIII. The JBI/JBII blot detected only the germline band. The detection of three rearranged bands was interpreted as evidence of the presence of at least two monoclonal populations of cells with the same light chain restriction.

We report a 70-year-old Japanese man who had splenic lymphoma with villous lymphocytes and a complex chromosomal abnormality. No monoclonal gammopathy was present. The peripheral blood film showed lymphocytes with thin and short villi arising from one or two poles of the cells. These cells were negative for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase stain. Immunophenotyping of peripheral blood lymphocytes showed moderate to strong expression of surface membrane IgM, IgD, IgA, and lambda as well as CD19, CD20, CD21, CD24, and HLA-DR. In addition, there was weak CD5, CD22, and CD25 expression, but no CD10, CD11c, CD23, CD38, or B-ly-7 expression. All 20 metaphases obtained from peripheral blood cells cultured for 5 days with lipopolysaccharide showed an abnormal karyotype: 47, XY, +der(3) t(3; 13) (q26; q12) inv(3) (?), t(7; 14), (q21; q11), der(13) t(3; 13) (q26; q12). Our patient followed a relatively benign clinical course and splenectomy was not performed.

In our laboratory, a two-step procedure is used for purging precursor B ALL from autologous bone marrow grafts of children in second bone marrow remission. An immunorosette depletion method with CD19 and CD22 MAbs is followed by one cycle of complement-mediated cell lysis with CD9 and CD10 MAbs. The aim of the present study was to determine if the efficacy of this procedure could be further enhanced by including CD20 and CD72 MAbs in the current protocol. Leukemia-contaminated remission bone marrow was simulated by mixing cell line cells and normal bone marrow cells. The efficacy of purging of malignant cells was determined by culturing the cells in a limiting dilution assay. The effect of including CD20 and CD72 in the immunorosette depletion was limited. In contrast, when these MAbs were added during complement-mediated cell lysis, a significant increase in depletion of tumor cells was observed. This was true when complement lysis was carried out alone (0.4 versus 3.0 log depletion for Ros cells) and when it was preceded by immunorosette depletion (2.7 versus 4.1 log depletion for Ros cells). The loss of hematopoietic progenitor cells was not greater than with the current purging protocol.

A unique case with diffuse mixed malignant lymphoma was investigated for gene rearrangement on the level of T-cell receptor (TCR), heavy chain immunoglobulin (Ig), and both light chains. Cell phenotype was examined with immunofluorescence techniques using antibodies against surface immunoglobulins (SIg) and the kappa and lambda light chains. Monoclonal antibodies were used against CD3, CD4, CD5, CD8, CD10, CD19, CD22, HLA-DR, and TdT. Gene rearrangement analysis for monoclonality determination was carried out with restricted DNA (EcoR I and Hind III) hybridized with one of the following 32P-labelled probes: T-cell receptor (TCR beta), immunoglobulin heavy chain (JH), k light chain, and lambda light chain. Phenotyping of the cell population from the excised lymph node (LN) revealed the presence of 66% B-cells and 35% T-cells. Most of the B cells (94%) expressed mu heavy chain only. Expression of both light chains was negligible (k = 7% and lambda = 2%). Gene rearrangement, which indicates monoclonality, was positive on the level of TCR, Ig heavy chain, and both light chains. The data obtained suggests a neoplastic transforming event in lymphoid stem cells, which preceded the subsequent differentiation process into either B or T lymphoma.
