This study was undertaken to analyze the differentiation profiles assessed by immunophenotyping in AIDS-related B-cell lymphoma (ARL) and their relation to the clinical course. Paraffin-embedded sections of 89 ARL cases during 1989 to 2004 were stained immunohistochemically with antibodies to CD3, CD10, CD20, CD38, CD138/Syndecan-1 (Syn-1), multiple myeloma-1/interferon regulatory factor-4 (MUM1/IRF4), B-cell lymphoma protein-2 (BCL-2), BCL-6, latent membrane protein-1 (LMP-1), and Ki-67. Expression of CD10 and CD20 were associated with better overall survival (OS; P = .009 and P = .04, respectively). Expression of CD20 was associated with longer disease-free survival (DFS; P = .03), whereas expression of CD138/Syn-1 was associated with shorter DFS (P = .03). OS and DFS were worse in patients with immunophenotypic profiles related to post-germinal center (GC) differentiation (BCL-6 and CD10 negative, MUM1/IRF4 and/or CD138/Syn-1 positive) when compared with GC differentiation (P = .01). When controlled for age-adjusted International Prognostic Index (IPI), prior AIDS-defining illness (ADI), and year of ARL diagnosis, a post-GC differentiation remained significantly associated with poor OS and DFS. Expression of CD10 was associated with a preserved immunocompetence, whereas CD20 was less frequent in patients developing ARL while on highly active antiretroviral therapy (P = .04). In summary, lack of CD20 or CD10 expression and a post-germinal center signature are associated with a worse prognosis in ARL.

Plasmablastic lymphoma is an HIV-associated non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that primarily affects the oral cavity and jaws. The purpose of this report is to describe the first case of plasmablastic lymphoma occurring in an HIV-negative, nonimmunocompromised individual, and to review the histopathologic and immunohistochemical phenotype of this lymphoma. Histopathologically, our case exhibited a dense, diffuse lymphocytic infiltrate of noncohesive large lymphocytes with plasmacytoid features. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed positivity for the B-cell marker CD79a, VS38c, Epstein-Barr virus latent membrane protein (LMP), immunoglobulin G (IgG), and lambda light chain restriction. Neoplastic cells were negative for leukocyte common antigen, CD20, CD3, CD10, CD138, Bcl-2, Bcl-6, desmin, actin, EMA, S-100, HMB45, Alk-1, HHV8, IgA, IgM, and cytokeratin. The features of this rare disease are summarized based on a comprehensive review of the epidemiologic, clinical and immunohistochemical findings of previously reported cases.

Most primary central nervous system lymphomas (PCNSLs) in immunocompetent patients are diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCLs), characterized by poor prognosis, compared with systemic forms. A germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) origin of PCNSL was hypothesized on the basis of BCL-6 expression and ongoing mutational activity. Our goal herein was to determine, for 83 PCNSLs, the percentages of GCB and activated B-cell-like (ABC) phenotypes and their prognostic significance. CD10, BCL-6, MUM1, BCL-2, and CD138 antigens were immunohistochemically labeled on paraffin-embedded sections; the first 4 were positive in 2.4%, 55.5%, 92.6%, and 55.5% of the tumors, respectively. None of the 56 tested samples expressed CD138. Among the 82 patients with complete information, 79 (96.3%) were classified as ABC; 42 (51.2%) expressed BCL-6+ MUM1+, suggesting an "activated GCB" origin; 33 (40.2%) were exclusively MUM1+, and the remaining 4 (4.9%) were negative for all markers tested. These findings provide new insights into interpreting the poor PCNSL prognostic, which may, in part, be due to biologic aggressiveness associated with its activated B-cell-like pattern. We postulate assigning PCNSL a histogenetic "time-slot," overlapping late GC and early post-GC, that could explain the predominant ABC phenotype observed.

Morphologic features of Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) overlap. No single phenotypic marker or molecular abnormality is pathognomonic. We tested a panel of 8 germinal center (GC) and activated B-cell (ABC) markers for their ability to separate BL and DLBCL. We diagnosed 16 BL and 39 DLBCL cases from 21 patients with AIDS and 34 without AIDS based on traditional morphologic criteria, Ki-67 proliferative index, and c-myc rearrangement (fluorescence in situ hybridization). After immunohistochemically staining tissue microarrays of BL and DLBCL for markers of GC (bcl-6, CD10, cyclin H) and ABC (MUM1, CD138, PAK1, CD44, bcl-2), we scored each case for the percentage of positive cells. Hierarchical clustering yielded 2 major clusters significantly associated with morphologic diagnosis (P < .001). For comparison, we plotted the sum of the GC scores and ABC scores for each case as x and y data points. This revealed a high-GC/low-ABC group and a low-GC/high-ABC group that were associated significantly with morphologic diagnosis (P < .001). Protein expression of multiple GC and ABC markers can separate BL and DLBCL.

Adult, de novo B-cell lymphomas meeting the WHO morphologic criteria for atypical Burkitt/Burkitt-like lymphoma cause diagnostic difficulty for pathologists because the genetic and clinical characteristics of this group of lymphomas have not been clearly defined. Thirty-one such lymphomas, designated as Burkitt-like lymphomas (BLL), were selected based on morphologic features and evaluated for immunophenotype, MYC and BCL2 status, and clinical features. Nine childhood Burkitt lymphomas (BL) and 87 adult, de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBL) were similarly evaluated for comparison. The BL group demonstrated uniform characteristics: all had Burkitt lymphoma morphology, an identical immunophenotype (positive for CD20, CD10, bcl-6, CD43, and p53; negative for CD138, CD23, bcl-2), high MIB-1 positivity, IGH/MYC translocation, no IGH/BCL2 translocation, and all patients were alive at the last follow-up. The BLL and DLBL groups were heterogeneous. Burkitt-like morphology alone correlated with decreased survival. IGH/MYC or IGL/MYC fusion was identified in 11 of 27 (41%) BLL and 4 of 76 (5%) DLBL and was associated with decreased survival in both groups. MIB-1 positivity did not correlate with morphology, MYC abnormalities, or survival. We propose that adult B-cell lymphomas with BLL morphology are a phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous group of aggressive lymphomas, biologically distinct from childhood BL. Until biologically accurate subgroups within this morphologically defined group are identified, it is appears that both recognition of BLL morphology and direct evaluation for the presence of MYC fusion to immunoglobulin genes are important for identification of adult patients with poorer prognosis than those with DLBL.

The bcl6/CD10/MUM1/CD138 B-cell differentiation immunophenotypes were analysed in 101 cases of classical Hodgkin lymphomas (cHL) aiming to elucidate their histogenesis. Three major bcl6/CD10/MUM1/CD138 immunophenotypes were distinguished on the basis of the immunohistochemical positivity of Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg (H/RS) cells: (a) the late germinal center (GC)/early post-GC B-cell-like immunophenotype (bcl6-/CD10-/MUM1+/CD138-); 59/101 cases (59%), (b) the post-GC B-cell-like immunophenotype (bcl6-/CD10-/MUM1+/CD138+); 24/101 cases (24%) and (c) the indeterminate immunophenotype (bcl6+/CD10-/MUM1+/CD138-: 14 cases and bcl6+/CD10-/MUM1+/CD138+: four cases); 18/101 cases (18%). The above findings indicate that H/RS cells in most cHL display bcl6/CD10/MUM1/CD138 immunophenotypes consistent with late GC/early post-GC or post-GC B-cell differentiation. In addition, H/RS cells in a small fraction of cHL display indeterminate bcl6/CD10/MUM1/CD138 immunophenotypic profiles which are characterized by simultaneous expression of GC, late GC/early post-GC and post-GC B-cell differentiation proteins. These immunophenotypic profiles do not correspond to the differentiation immunophenotypes of normal B-cells and their identification in a part of cHL suggests that the differentiation process of H/RS cells is not complete in a fraction of these cells and/or is still ongoing at the time of observation.

Based on gene expression profiling, diffuse large B-cell lymphomas arising in immunocompetent patients can be divided into germinal center and activated B-cell types. Since little is known about acquired immunodeficiency syndrome associated diffuse large B-cell lymphomas, we tested whether the protein expression of germinal center and activated B-cell markers differed between acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) vs non-AIDS diffuse large B-cell lymphomas. We immunohistochemically stained tissue microarrays of 39 de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphomas: 12 AIDS associated and 27 non-AIDS, with germinal center (BCL6, CD10, CyclinH) and activated B-cell markers (MUM1, CD138, PAK1, CD44, BCL2). We scored each case for percent positive cells (0-19%=0; 20-49%=1; 50-100%=2). The activated B-cell and germinal center summation scores of each case were used as (x, y) coordinate data points to construct two-dimensional contour-frequency plots. The contour plot of non-AIDS diffuse large B-cell lymphomas showed two distinct clusters: a cluster with a high germinal center phenotype (cluster 1) and a cluster with a high activated B-cell phenotype (cluster 3). In contrast, the AIDS-related diffuse large B-cell lymphomas formed a single aggregate (cluster 2) (P=0.02, Fisher exact test). When the contour plots of the AIDS-related and the non-AIDS cases were superimposed, cluster 2 of the AIDS cases expressed an intermediate germinal center/activated B-cell phenotype compared to clusters 1 and 3 of the non-AIDS diffuse large B-cell lymphomas. Our results confirm that non-AIDS diffuse large B-cell lymphomas segregate into two groups with either germinal center or activated B-cell phenotype. We report the new finding that the AIDS status of the patient predicts the immunophenotype of the diffuse large B-cell lymphomas.

Recently diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCLs) was reported to be subdivided into germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) and activated B-cell-like (ABC) subgroups by using cDNA microarray and immunohistochemical markers. Tissue microarray blocks were created from 51 nodal DLBCLs with control tissue. Immunohistochemical staining for the above markers were performed. The median follow-up period was 26 months. Nodal DLBCLs were subclassified into GCB [CD10+ or CD10-/Bcl-6+/MUM1-, n=17 (33%)] and non-GC subgroups [CD10-/Bcl-6- or CD10-/Bcl-6+/MUM1+, n=35 (67%)], and were alternatively subclassified into pattern A [+ for GCB marker only, n=12 (23%)], B [Co-positive for both markers, n=13 (33%)], C [+ for activation marker only, n=18 (35%)], and D [- for both markers, n=9 (17%)]. Upon survival analysis, the GCB groups showed a relatively better survival than non-GC groups (p=0.0748). Also, pattern C (p=0.0055) and CD138+ (p=0.0008) patients had significantly lower survival rates. By multivariate analysis, CD138 expression alone was considered as an independent risk factor (p=0.031). In summary, our results add to the registration of prognostic implications for previously reported DLBCL subgroups. CD138 may play an important role as a poor prognostic marker. By using immunohistochemistry, a prognostically important subclassification of DLBCLs is possible.

The WHO immunophenotype for plasma cell myeloma is deletion of CD19 and CD20, usual expression of CD38, CD138, and CD56, and occasional expression of CD10. Of the 39 cases of plasma cell dyscrasia in our study, the mean fluorescence intensities (MFI) of CD38, CD138, CD56, and CD19 were quantified in 30 cases. CD19 was absent in 38 of the cases (97.4%), whereas CD138 and CD38 were expressed in all 39 cases (100%). Most cases expressed CD38 and CD138 brightly with MFI values greater than 501, whereas all other marker expression was moderate with MFI greater than 301. Whereas CD38/CD56 dual expression was observed in 25 cases (64.1%), 14 failed to express CD56 (35.9%). CD56 expression was bright in 16 cases (53.3%), moderate in 2 cases (6.7%), and negative in the remaining 12 cases (40%) with MFI values of 200 or less. CD117 expression was positive in 9 of 24 cases (37.5%). In 32 of 39 cases, 27 were negative for CD20 (84.4%) and 28 were negative for CD10 (87.5%). Our results point to the value of quantitative fluorescence intensity in the flow cytometric evaluation of CD molecular expression or deletion in the diagnosis of hematopathologic disorders, such as plasma cell dyscrasia.

Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) of the oral cavity is classified as one subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that is most commonly seen in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection. We report a rare case of PBL in the anal canal of a 33-year-old man with human immunodeficiency virus infection. The lymphoma cells were positive for CD138 and weakly positive for CD79a. In addition, these cells were also positive for CD10. The neoplastic cells were positive for Epstein-Barr virus and negative for human herpes virus 8. Review of the English medical literature revealed many more cases of extra-oral PBL. We propose that the term plasmablastic lymphoma of the oral cavity in World Health Organization classification be revised to simply plasmablastic lymphoma, which would include both oral and extra-oral PBLs, and the term to define the primary site of the lymphoma (ie, oral cavity) be dropped from the terminology used in World Health Organization classification.
