There is a long-standing controversy as to whether a single bone marrow (BM)-derived cell can differentiate along both hematopoietic and stromal lineages. Both primitive hematopoietic and stromal progenitor cells in human BM express the CD34 antigen but lack expression of other surface markers, such as CD38. In this study we examined the CD34+, CD38- fraction of human fetal BM by multiparameter fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis and single-cell sorting. CD34+, C38- cells could be divided into HLA-DR+ and HLA-DR- fractions. After single-cell sorting, 59% of the HLA-DR+ cells formed hematopoietic colonies. In contrast, the CD34+, CD38-, HLA-DR- cells were much more heterogeneous with respect to their light scatter properties, expression of other hematopoietic markers (CD10, CD36, CD43, CD49b, CD49d, CD49e, CD50, CD62E, CD90w, CD105, and CD106), and growth properties. Single CD34+, CD38-, HLA-DR- cells sorted into individual culture wells formed either hematopoietic or stromal colonies. The presence or absence of CD50 (ICAM-3) expression distinguished hematopoietic from stromal progenitors within the CD34+, CD38-, HLA-DR- population. The CD50+ fraction had light scatter characteristics and growth properties of hematopoietic progenitor cells. In contrast, the CD50- fraction lacked hematopoietic progenitor activity but contained clonogenic stromal progenitors at a mean frequency of 5%. We tested the hypothesis that cultures derived from single cells with the CD34+, CD38-, HLA-DR- phenotype could differentiate along both a hematopoietic and stromal lineage. The cultures contained a variety of mesenchymal cell types and mononuclear cells that had the morphologic appearance of histiocytes. Immunophenotyping of cells from these cultures indicated a stromal rather than a hematopoietic origin. In addition, the growth of the histiocytic cells was independent of the presence or the absence of hematopoietic growth factors. Based on sorting more than 30,000 single cells with the CD34+, CD38-, HLA-DR- phenotype into individual culture wells, and an analysis of 864 stromal cultures initiated by single CD34+ BM cells, this study does not support the hypothesis of a single common progenitor for both hematopoietic and stromal lineages within human fetal BM.

In this study an amphotropic retrovirus has been used to efficiently transduce normal human (NF) and scleroderma (systemic sclerosis; SSc) dermal fibroblasts (SScF) with a sequence encoding a temperature-sensitive mutant of the SV40 large T antigen (tsA58-U19). From the primary outgrowths of skin explants, cultures were generated whose growth was stringently temperature-dependent. When grown at a low, permissive temperature (35 degrees C), both normal and SSc-transduced cells continuously divided with similar doubling times, whereas at a high, nonpermissive temperature (39.5 degrees C), division of both the NF and SScF cells was rapidly arrested. These cells have been passaged more than 50 times, have the typical morphological appearance of fibroblasts, and have retained an anchorage-dependent phenotype. The transduced normal cells (tsT-NF) synthesized the matrix molecules collagen and fibronectin and expressed phenotypic antigens characteristic of their nontransduced counterparts, including MHC Class I, VLA beta 1 (CD29), Hermes 1 (CD44), VLA-4 alpha (CD49d), ICAM-1 (CD54) and LFA-3 (CD58) and the cell surface ectoenzymes neutral endopeptidase (CD10), aminopeptidase N (CD13), and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (CD26). Analysis of the transduced SSc fibroblasts (tsT-SScF) showed that these cells exhibited certain major features of the SSc pathology, notably the abnormally high synthesis of type I collagen, increased expression of ICAM-1, and depressed levels of CD26. Moreover, these phenotypic characteristics were retained even after prolonged culture in vitro. The tsT-SScF cells also retained their responsiveness to cytokines, since interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) both produced a marked increase in ICAM-1 expression. Our findings show that infection of SScF with the SV40 tsT antigen extends the life span of these cells and does not ablate their abnormal phenotypic and functional characteristics.

Comparative studies of the CD34+ cell population in peripheral blood (PB) and bone marrow (BM) may contribute to understanding the mechanisms involved in mobilization of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) from BM to PB. PB-CD34+ and BM-CD34+ cells in steady-state hematopoiesis and during granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) administration were studied for the expression of activation-associated, lineage-associated and adhesion-associated molecules and for their cloning capacity [granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming cells (CFU-GM) and burst-forming unit-erythrocytes (BFU-E)]. G-CSF increased significantly the number of CD34+ cells in PB as well as in BM and resulted in a reduction of CD34+ cells coexpressing the adhesion-related molecule CD49d. Further, G-CSF reduced the relative number of lymphoid progenitors (CD34+ cells coexpressing CD10, CD19, CD20, CD2, or CD7) in both compartments. However, G-CSF had no major impact on the observed differences between PB-CD34+ and BM-CD34+ cells seen during steady-state hematopoiesis despite a relative decrease in PB and increase in BM of certain immature progenitors (CD34+DR- cells). Circulating CD34+ cells, even in steady-state, were enriched for colony-forming cells, and individual colonies appeared larger compared with their BM counterparts. PB-CD34+ cells contained relatively more myeloid progenitors (CD34+CD13+ cells) and fewer B lymphoid progenitors (CD10, CD19, and CD20 cells) than BM-CD34+ cells. CD34+DR-cells were present in a higher proportion of the CD34+ cells in PB than in BM. There were lower numbers of CD34+ cells expressing CD49d and c-kit in PB than in BM. To summarize, the differences between PB-CD34+ and BM-CD34+ cells observed during steady-state hematopoiesis were largely conserved during G-CSF administration. G-CSF, therefore, mainly has an effect on the quantity not the composition of the circulating CD34+ cell pool. Our data also suggest that the egress of HPCs from BM during steady-state hematopoiesis, as well as during G-CSF administration, is a selective process; that is, certain subsets are more prone to enter into circulation than others, and this release may be mediated via common pathway possibly involving downregulation of c-kit and VLA-4 (CD49d).

Leukemic cells of B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are regarded as the malignant counterparts of immature, physiologic B cell precursors (BCPs). To determine whether phenotypic differences exist between these corresponding cell types, we investigated samples of normal pediatric bone marrow (n=30) as well as of B-precursor ALL at diagnosis (n=53; common and pre-B subtype). Using three-color multiparameter flow cytometric analysis, we compared the leukemic populations with the physiologic BCPs of corresponding maturity with respect to the intensity with which they expressed a series of antigens. In some of these antigens, leukemia-associated aberrations were frequently observed. In particular, overexpression of CD10 was displayed by 65% of ALL samples, whereas 58% of leukemic cases aberrantly exhibited very low or no CD45RA expression. Regarding CD11a and CD44, 47% and 35% of ALL populations were aberrant as defined by either the absence or significant overexpression of the antigen. In contrast, antigen densities of CD49d, CD49e, and CD99 on leukemic cells were in the normal range of values for BCPs. Combining the patterns of frequently aberrant markers in a comprehensive analysis, we were able to identify individual phenotypic leukemic cell aberrations in up to 98% of investigated cases. CD10 and/or CD45RA were aberrant in 86% of cases overall, emphasizing the high discriminative potential of these two markers. Using comparative phenotype mapping based on quantitatively aberrant, leukemia-associated antigenic patterns, we were able to detect leukemic blasts among normal bone marrow cells at frequencies as low as 10(-5). We speculate that our approach may have a profound impact on the development of new strategies for minimal residual disease investigations in patients with BCP-ALL.

The classification of CD5-negative/CD10-negative chronic B-cell leukemias (CD5-/CD10- CBL) can be problematic. Most of these cases may represent leukemic non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) other than B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (BCLL); nonetheless, some investigators still advocate the term "CD5-negative BCLL." Because adhesion molecule (AdMol) expression patterns reflect the biology of lymphoid neoplasms, we studied a series of 106 B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders, including CD5+ BCLL (n = 56), NHL other than BCLL (n = 35), and CD5-/CD10- CBL (excluding hairy cell leukemia and prolymphocytic leukemia) with no prior history of NHL (n = 15) for expression of components of the very late antigen-4 complex (alpha4/beta1 integrin (CD49d/CD29)), components of the mucosal addressin-cell adhesion molecule receptor (alpha4(CD49d)/beta7 integrin), and L-selectin (CD62L). CD62L expression was significantly greater in CD5+ BCLL than in NHL (P < .001). Conversely, CD29, CD49d, and beta7-integrin expression were significantly greater in NHL than in CD5+ BCLL (P < .001 for each marker). These differences persisted when only blood and bone marrow samples were analyzed, with the exception of differences in CD62L expression, which approached, but did not reach, statistical significance (P = .08). The group of CD5-/CD10- CBL displayed an AdMol profile similar to NHL and was significantly different than CD5+ BCLL in expression of beta7 integrin, CD29, CD49d, and CD62L (P range < .001-.011). In summary, CD5-/CD10- CBL display an AdMol profile resembling NHL and significantly different from CD5+ BCLL, supporting the growing notion that "CD5-negative BCLL" generally represents leukemic NHL rather than a variant of true CD5+ BCLL.

Neutrophil surface molecules function in part as biological sensors. Surface antigens undergo several changes during neutrophilic maturation to accommodate the cell's function. Surface antigens may appear with neutrophilic maturation, such as CD16b, CD35, and CD10; disappear with maturation, such as CD49d and CD64; be maintained during maturation, such as CD32, CD59, and CD82; or disappear with maturation but reappear after neutrophilic extravasation, such as CD49b. This article reviews the alterations in surface antigen expression during normal neutrophilic granulopoiesis.

The novel multiple myeloma (MM) cell line MOLP-8 carrying the t(11;14) (q13;q32) was established from the peripheral blood of a 52-year-old Japanese male patient with Bence-Jones delta/lambda type MM (stage IIIA with hyperammonemia). The growth of MOLP-8 cells is constitutively independent of exogenous growth factors or feeder cells. MOLP-8 cells grow mainly as free floating single cells and slightly adherent on the bottom of the plastic culture flask. Wright-Giemsa-stained MOLP-8 cells show the typical plasma cell morphology with abundant cytoplasm, heterogeneous cell size and one to three nuclei. The immunoprofile of MOLP-8 corresponds to that seen typically in primary MM cells: positive for cytoplasmic immunoglobulin (Ig) delta/lambda chains, CD10, CD29, CD38, CD40, CD44, CD49b, CD49d, CD54, CD56, CD58, CD71, CD138 and PCA-1; the cells were negative for surface Igs and various other B-cell, T-cell and myelomonocyte-associated immunomarkers. CD28 became positive after co-culture of MOLP-8 cells with bone marrow adherent stromal (BST) feeder cells for a week. About 30% of MOLP-8 cells adhered strongly to the BST cells, but the cellular adhesion was clearly inhibited by addition of either anti-CD29 or anti-CD106 monoclonal antibody, suggesting a specific cellular adhesion through alpha4beta1-integrin-VCAM-1 interaction. The novel MOLP-8 cell line together with the present myeloma cell lines will present useful model systems in the investigation of the biology of MM.

A panel of 377 commercially available mAbs was submitted to the animal homologue section of the Eighth International Workshop on Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens (HLDA8, Adelaide, Australia) for cross-reactivity studies in a range of vertebrate species. Eight commercial suppliers participated by providing isotype controls and mAbs specific for a total of 144 CD antigens. In this study, we describe the results of flow cytometric testing of the reactivity of these mAbs with leukocyte populations isolated from blood, bronchoalveolar lavage, and ileal Peyer's patches of sheep. A total of 52 mAbs were identified as potentially reacting with sheep blood leukocytes in the first round of screening with blood leukocytes. In the second phase, reactivity of selected mAbs was further analyzed by repeating the screening with blood leukocytes at an independent facility. Screening of selected mAbs for reactivity with myeloid antigens was completed with alveolar macrophages and screening for reactivity with B cell antigens was completed with ileal Peyer's patch B cells. This screening identified mAbs that consistently reacted with both putative myeloid (CD10, CD22, CD23, CD27, CD29, CD32, CD49d, CD81, CD86, CD88, CD163, CD165) and B cell (CD10, CD22, CD23, CD27, CD29, CD32, CD49d, CD81, CD86, CD88, CD165) activation or differentiation antigens. Further studies will be required to determine if each mAb cross-reacts with an orthologous leukocyte antigen.

A panel of 377 commercially available monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific for a total of 144 CD antigens was submitted to the animal homologue section of the Eighth International Workshop on Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens (HLDA8, Adelaide, Australia) for cross-reactivity studies in a range of vertebrate species. Each of the mAbs in this study was screened for positive reactivity with guinea pig splenocytes by flow cytometry. In the first phase of this study 36 of the total 367 mAbs (9.81%) cross-reacted with splenocyte surface molecules. The majority (26 of 36) of these cross-reactive mAbs were analysed further to confirm appropriate cell subset expression by two-color immunofluorescence. Our results indicate that 15 anti-human CD9, CD10, CD14, CD20 (two clones), CD22, CD25, CD29 (two clones), CD32, CD47 (two clones), CD49d, CD49e, and CD86 mAbs exhibit clear cross-reactivity with guinea pig splenocytes. These mAb can potentially be added to the limited repertoire of reagents available for studies in this model system. This data clearly indicates that mouse anti-human CD mAb guinea pig cross-reactions have been defined and that an aim of this HLDA8 section has been fulfilled, i.e., to identify mAbs which recognize conserved, species-independent CD epitopes. These results will contribute to the availability of mAbs and tools in veterinary medicine and immunology.

Three hundred and seventy six monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) raised against human leukocyte surface antigens were analyzed by flow cytometry for cross reactivities against mink leukocytes. We found 53 mAbs (14%) to cross react. This study defined cross reactions to the following human markers: CD1a, CD9 (4 mAbs), CD10, CD11a (2 mAbs), CD14 (3 mAbs), CD18 (5 mAbs), CD20 (atypical reaction), CD21, CD25 (atypical reaction), CD29 (3 mAbs), CD32, CD41, CD42a, CD44 (4 mAbs), CD45, CD45RO, CD47 (2 mAbs), CD49d (3 mAbs), CD61 (2 mAbs), CD62P, CD66abcd, CD71, CD75s, CD79b (2 mAbs), CD86, CD88, CD104 (atypical reaction), CD172a, CD236R (glycophorin C, (atypical reaction)), Xg(a) carbohydrate antigen, Rhesus antigen and two unspecified PAN-reactive mAbs. In order to characterize the molecular mass of the corresponding cross reacting mink markers, the mAbs were used to immunoprecipitate the surface antigens. Fourteen mAbs out of the 53 mAbs reactive with mink leukocytes gave reproducible IP findings. The masses of the precipitated antigens were generally in good agreement with those of the homologous human markers. We also performed immunohistochemical staining analyses on formalin fixed, paraffin embedded mink tissue from lymph node and spleen, and found 7 out of 22 mAbs to give a positive signal. Generally, the immunohistological analyses resulted in expected staining patterns.
