Configuration of the T cell receptor (TCR) beta, gamma, and delta chain genes, as well as immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy and light chain genes, was studied in 29 cases of E rosette-negative (pre-T cell) acute lymphoblastic leukemias that lack early B cell (CD19), myeloid (CD33), as well as most T cell associated membrane antigens such as CD1, C4, and CD8, but express CD7, cytoplasmic CD3 (cCD3), and TdT strongly, as well as CD5 and/or CD2 heterogeneously. Hematopoietic progenitor cell markers, namely HLA-DR, J5 (CD10), and My10 (CD34), further characterized this immature T ALL of putative prothymocytic phenotype. Eleven ALLs showed a germline configuration of TCR as well as Ig genes. In three cases, only TCR delta sequences were rearranged, and four additional cases were characterized by recombination of both, TCR gamma as well as TCR delta sequences. Eleven patients showed concurrent rearrangements of TCR beta, gamma, and delta chain genes. An Ig heavy chain rearrangement was observed in one case. These data support the hypothesis that, analogous to pre-B development, a cascade of TCR rearrangements occurs in pre-T cells. Moreover, findings reported here suggest that CD7, as well as CD2 and CD5, antigens appear on precursor cells prior to entry into the thymus and support a model for the developmental hierarchy of TCR genes during early T cell ontogeny.

We report the case of a spontaneously regressing lymphocytic lesion on the neck of a 76-year-old man. Routine histopathological examination revealed a heterogeneous infiltrate composed of both lymphoid follicles and preferentially perifollicular and interfollicular sheets of large atypical cells. Immunohistologically, large atypical cells were positive for Ki-1/Ber-H2 (CD30), anti-Il-2 (CD25), Ber T9, anti-HLA-DR, Leu-5b (CD2), T3 (CD3), Leu-3 (CD4), Leu-1 (CD5) and, occasionally, Leu-M1 (CD15); that is, they showed an arrangement and immunophenotype similar to those of perifollicular Ki-1 positive cells in reactive lymphoid tissue. In contrast, antibodies To15 (CD22), anti-immunoglobulins, and anti-CALLA (CD10) stained polyclonal B-cells restricted to lymphoid follicles and small clusters representing remnants of follicles. We suggest that this lesion be termed "follicular lymphoid hyperplasia of the skin with high content of activated T-helper cells."

A case of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) treated with chlorambucil, followed by the development of an acute monoblastic leukemia, is described. Cytofluorometric quantitative immunophenotype was determined during the blastic phase. Whereas small lymphocytes displayed a CD19+; CD24+; CD37+; CD5+ phenotype, the blastic population exhibited, besides CD13, CD14 and CD15 positivity, which is usually noted in such a monoblastic leukemia, definite CD9, CD10, CD22, CD24, CD37, CD5 and CD4 staining. Such results argue against a complete independence between the two clones, although their similarity could not be demonstrated.

The AMeX method (cold Acetone fixation with subsequent Methyl benzoate and Xylene treatment and routine paraffin embedding) has been recently revived for simultaneous preservation of morphology of cells and their antigens. We propose a modification of this method (ModAMeX), with the use of proteolytic enzyme inhibitors and low temperature paraffin wax embedding, which results in better preservation of a large number of leucocyte differentiation antigens and diagnostic morphologic detail. T-cell antigens (CD1, CD2, CD3, CD7 & CD8), B-cell antigens (CD22), macrophage associated antigens (CD11c, CD14 and others), activation antigens (CD25 and others), as well as some other antigens of diagnostic interest (CD10) were found to be preserved with a staining intensity equal to that of sections of fresh frozen tissue. Although the staining intensity of other T-cell antigens (CD4 & CD5), B-cell antigens (CD19, CD21 & CD37), activation antigens (Ki-1) and nuclear proliferation antigen (Ki-67) was slightly weaker as compared with frozen sections, this could be corrected by increasing the monoclonal antibody concentration. Staining for heavy and light chains of immunoglobulins was minor, sometimes compromised due to persistence of background staining as a result of extracellular immunoglobulins. The ModAMeX method has the advantages of simplicity, low cost and the possibility of exchange of tissue material between laboratories.

A subset of normal peripheral B lymphocytes expresses a T surface antigen recognized by monoclonal CD5. They form rosettes with mouse erythrocytes (MRBC). Other studies suggest that these B cells may have regulatory and helper properties. An expanded subset of lymphocytes forming MRBC was demonstrated in the peripheral blood of 31 Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) patients (14.4 +/- 2.8%) compared with normal controls (4.3 +/- 1.4%) and patients with tuberculosis (6.4 +/- 1.7%). Increased MRBC values correlated with disease severity. Investigation of cell surface antigen expression was attempted with enriched sedimented fractions using several monoclonal antibodies and immunofluorescent staining. Complete inhibition of MRBC formation was obtained with monoclonal antibodies against CD5, CD3 and CD8 while partial inhibition was observed with anti-Ia and no activity with CD4 and CD10 antibodies. Indirect evidence supports the concept that antilymphocyte antibodies cause T and B cell depletion and dysfunction. Sera from 12 patients with SLE and 28 with leprosy (LL) were analyzed for antibodies to lymphocytes in the microcytotoxicity assay: 87% of SLE and 57% of LL were positive. Lymphocytotoxic activity towards each cell type of a panel with 98 different HLA antigens was essentially the same and most sera were not specific for either T or B cells. Lymphocytotoxic sera from SLE and LL contained antibodies which inhibited MRBC formation.

The non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) are a heterogeneous group of lymphoid neoplasms displaying a wide variation in cell morphology, histological patterns, immunological phenotype and prognosis. In this paper we compare the results of phenotypic investigation of 322 tissue biopsies with the histology based on the Kiel classification. Immunological analysis revealed that 81 per cent of these tumours were of B cell origin, 12 per cent of T cell origin and the remaining 7 per cent could not be characterized as representing either cell lineage. This last group included a number of cases which had received a histological diagnosis of true histiocytic lymphoma. The original morphological diagnosis, based on routine haematoxylin and eosion sections correlated with the immunologically determined phenotype in 86 and 93 per cent of the T- and B-cell cases respectively. The B cell tumours were phenotypically heterogenous with respect to immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy chain and B lymphocyte subset marker expression. IgG was most often found associated with NHL of cb/cc histology and a small subgroup of lymphocytic NHL. IgA expression was uncommon and occurred in combination with IgD and G in three cases and alone in two cases of NHL. The most common immunoglobulin isotype expressed was IgM this isotype occurred with IgD most often in lymphocytic and centrocytic NHL and less often in tumours of cb/cc histology. Whilst greater than 90 per cent of the lymphocytic NHLs expressed the CD5 antigen, between 20 and 75 per cent of B-cell tumours of other histologies also expressed this epitope. The CD10 antigen and the epitope recognized by the monoclonal reagent FMC7 were widely distributed on tumour cells from all histologies. TdT expression commonly regarded as a marker for immature cells was found in one case of follicle centre cell lymphoma. All cases of T cell NHL displayed marked heterogeneity for both pan T and T subset antigens which is significant in terms of the routine diagnosis of T NHL and with regard to the rational classification of node based T NHL. Unlike resting peripheral blood T cells, MHC class II, OKT 10 and CD25 epitopes were expressed reflecting activation of tumour populations.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

The diagnostic value of immunohistochemistry using monoclonal antibodies was assessed in 100 liver biopsy specimens. The majority of these cases were hepatic localizations of lymphoid malignancies. Ten normal and reactive inflammatory liver biopsies were used as controls. Some monoclonal antibodies directed against leukocyte antigens revealed unexpected reactivities with normal liver structures: biliary tract (anti-CD10, anti-B MB2) and hepatocytes (anti-B LN1). In 12/17 cases of hepatic involvement by large cell malignancy, immunohistochemistry allowed the diagnosis of non Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL); the remaining 5 cases were metastatic undifferentiated carcinoma. It was difficult to differentiate small cell liver NHL from reactive inflammatory infiltration. New anti-B (MB1, MB2, 4KB5, LN1 and LN2) and anti-T (MT1 and UCHL1) monoclonal antibodies suitable for use on paraffin sections were of value to phenotype NHL when only fixed material was available. But, information was too limited to distinguish malignant from reactive infiltrates. Immunohistochemistry on frozen sections was often necessary to diagnose inflammatory infiltrates and to phenotype NHL. Most NHL were of B cell origin (11/13 cases) and showed monotypic surface immunoglobulins as well as B cell-associated antigens (CD22+). The expression of the T CD5 antigen by B-cell NHL may have some diagnostic value. When monotypic surface immunoglobulins could not be demonstrated (due to background staining) the expression of this antigen by B lymphocytes was considered to be highly indicative of their neoplastic nature. Hairy cell leukemia exhibited a pathognomonic phenotype on frozen sections (CD11c+, CD22+, CD25+). T NHL were rare (2 cases) and difficult to diagnose due to the lack of clonal markers. The diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease in liver (15/20 cases) was facilitated by using paraffin sections of both monoclonal antibodies anti-CD15 (Leu M1) and anti-CD30 (Ber-H2) which detect fixation-resistant antigens expressed by Sternberg cells.

The circulating lymphoid cells of eight consecutive untreated infants with severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) with B cells were analyzed for surface marker expression and function. The B cells of these children expressed sIg, HLA-DR, CD19 (B4), CD20 (B1), CD21 (B2), Leu-8, and lacked expression of CD10 (CALLA), as do normal peripheral blood B lymphocytes. SCID B cells also expressed antigens that are normally absent or present on only a minor subset of circulating adult B lymphocytes, including CD1c (M241), CD38 (OKT10), CD23 (PL13), with or without concomitant CD5 (Leu-1) expression. The B cells of these children were capable of proliferating in vitro when stimulated with Staphylococcus aureus Cowan I. However, in the presence of pokeweed mitogen, S. aureus Cowan I, and normal T cells, the sIg+ cells of these children produced only IgM. Studies performed on normal B cells obtained from cord blood, young children, and adults reveal that whereas cord blood B cells are predominantly CD1c, CD38, and CD23 positive, B-cell expression of these antigens decreases with age. Cord blood B cells, similar to SCID B cells, produce only IgM when stimulated in vitro with pokeweed mitogen and S. aureus Cowan I. Based on these observations, we hypothesize that SCID B cells represent a population of B cells present during normal B-cell ontogeny which becomes a minor subset when an individual develops full immunologic competence.

From January 1987 to April 1988 six children we studied cytologically with the use of alkaline phosphatase-anti-alkaline phosphatase (APAAP) method and monoclonal antibodies (MoP) in order to establish the diagnosis of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. (NHL). Cytologic studies concerned pleural fluid (3 patients) imprints of the lymph node (3 patients), bone marrow smears (2 patients) and cerebrospinal fluid (1 patient). We performed simultaneously routine cytologic and histopathologic studies of the lymph nodes. Antigen T6 (thymocytes) was present in blasts of all patients, which permitted us to classify the blasts as common stage II group according to Reinherz. In all cases we found at least two positive antigen detected by MoP pan T (CD2, CD3, CD5, CD7) in one case--no expression of antigen T3 (CD3) and in two cases no antigen detected by an antibody CD2. Antigen Ia was found in one patient, and weak expression of antigen CALLA (CD10) in one patients. In three patients we showed a simultaneous expression of antigens T4, T8, whereas in two patients they were not observed. One child possessed mature phenotype T4, T6. By using APAAP method with MoP in cytologic studies it was possible to diagnose T-lymphoblastic lymphoma in six children before the results of histopathologic examination of the lymph nodes.

The expression of TCR-associated molecules was examined in human fetal and postnatal tissues. From gestational wk 7 onward in the fetal liver, putative prothymocytes have been identified with cytoplasmic CD3 positivity (cCD3+). These immature cells are TdT- and do not express membrane CD3 (mCD3-) or TCR beta identified by beta F1, but show CD7 and CD45 positivity without CD1, CD2, CD5, CD4, CD8, CD10, and class II Ag. Their high proliferative activity is indicated by greater than 85% Ki67 positivity. After the 10th wk, beta F1+, mCD3+ cells also appear in the liver and these are mostly Ki67- but no TCR gamma delta-bearing cells can be identified at such an early stage of extrathymic development. In the mCD3- TdT-fetal thymus (10 1/2 to 18th wk) cCD3+, mCD3- CD1-blasts proliferate (Ki67+) and lack TCR-beta or TCR-gamma delta. The TdT-, CD1+ cortical thymocytes develop into TCR-beta + and WT31-positive (TCR-alpha beta +) cells. Subsequently TdT-positive thymocytes become detectable around 19 to 20 wk, and in such glands the peak of proliferative activity is seen among TdT+, cCD3+ cells which appear to acquire, in a regular sequence, cytoplasmic beta F1 (TCR-beta), mCD3, and TCR-alpha beta (WT31 positivity) together with the loss of TdT and Ki67 positivity. A newly described transitional population of cells is TdT-, beta F1+ but exhibits no detectable WT31 positivity. These cells correspond to the CD1+, mCD3+ thymocytes and are probably the targets of thymic selection. The cells of the TCR-gamma delta lineage, detected by mAb TCR-delta-1 and delta TCS1, are rare (0.02 to 0.5%) among thymocytes from gestational wk 10 1/2 onward through the whole span of thymic development, but these cells include a proportion (18 to 59%) of cells expressing CD1 Ag, suggesting that these TCR-gamma delta cells differentiate in the thymus. Among the CD1+, TCR-gamma delta + thymocytes, no TdT positivity can be detected.
