The authors determined the phenotypes of neoplastic cells in true histiocytic lymphoma and malignant histiocytosis by using a large panel of monoclonal antibodies and enzyme histochemistry procedures. Although the phenotypes overlapped slightly, the authors noted a distinct pattern in these tumors. The tumor cells of malignant histiocytosis generally expressed the monocyte markers CD11b, CD11c, CD14, and CD45, especially after induction with phorbol ester. In contrast, the tumor cells of true histiocytic lymphoma exhibited a marker expression very similar to that of Reed-Sternberg cells in Hodgkin's disease. These cells expressed markers CD30, 2H9, and 1A2, but rarely expressed CD11b, CD11c, CD14, or CD45. Regardless of their cytologic features, the tumor cells from both types of histiocytic lymphoma exhibited diffuse nonspecific esterase and acid phosphatase activities, and they expressed histiocyte markers CD15, CD68, LN5, 1E9, and M387 to varying degrees. The tumor cells from both lymphomas did not exhibit T- or B-cell markers, T-cell receptor or immunoglobulin gene rearrangements, or gene translation products, even when they were induced with phorbol ester. The phenotypic expression in these two histiocytic malignancies suggests that they are derived from different types of histiocytes, or from histiocytes in different stages of maturation or differentiation, or from histiocytes that have distinct mechanisms of tumorigenic transformation. The expression of circulating monocyte markers in malignant histiocytosis suggests that this tumor originates in monocytes or free histiocytes, whereas the phenotype of true histiocytic lymphoma is compatible with an origin in fixed histiocytes, which generally are devoid of the monocyte markers CD11b and CD14.

We obtained a monoclonal antibody that has restricted reactivity with tumor cells [Hodgkin's mononuclear cells and Reed-Sternberg (H-RS) cells] in Hodgkin's disease by immunizing mice with 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate-induced H-RS cells. The antibody, anti-IRac, reacted with H-RS cells in 8 of 20 patients who had Hodgkin's disease, as well as with interdigitating reticulum cells in dermatopathic lymph nodes and with cells of three H-RS cell lines, HDLM-1, L428, and KM-H2. The antigen IRac is a protein of molecular weight 70,000 which we found to have the following properties. (a) After 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate induction, the expression of IRac was decreased slightly in HDLM and L428 cells but increased in KM-H2. This is in contrast to a rapid decrease in the expression of two other H-RS-cell-associated antigens, CD30 and 2H9, in all 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate-treated H-RS cells. Thus, IRac may be associated with H-RS cells at advanced stages of differentiation, and its expression may not be attributable solely to cellular proliferation. (b) IRac was detected rarely in normal or in antigen- or mitogen-activated lymphocytes but was observed frequently in virus-transformed B- or T-lymphocytes. These findings were similar to those with CD30 and 2H9, indicating that the expression of all three of these antigens is probably under a similar regulatory control. (c) IRac was absent from cells in most non-Hodgkin's lymphomas; its expression could not be modulated by treatment of cells with anti-IRac. We conclude that use of IRac could facilitate the diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease and that it may be suitable for immunotherapy or immunoimaging. The expression of IRac in both H-RS cells and interdigitating reticulum cells, along with earlier evidence, indicates that H-RS cells have antigenic and functional similarities to interdigitating reticulum cells or to cells of interdigitating reticulum cell/histiocyte lineage.

Three murine monoclonal antibodies, named 2H9, 1E9 and 1A2, were produced after immunization of BALB/c mice with cells of the SU-DHL-1 cell line from a true histiocytic lymphoma. In frozen sections from various lymphomas, 2H9 and 1A2 selectively stained the cell membranes of neoplastic cells in true histiocytic lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease. Antibody 1E9 stained the nuclear membranes of the tumor cells in true histiocytic lymphoma and malignant histiocytosis. No staining was seen in 56 cases of B and T cell lymphoma. Several tissue culture cell lines, including T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and pre-B cell lines, were not stained. With 2H9, however, a positive reaction was noted for two Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive African Burkitt's lymphoma cell lines (Daudi and P3HRI), one human T cell lymphoma/leukemia-virus-positive cell line (HUT 102), and one EBV-transformed normal B lymphoblastoid cell line (RPMI 8057). In normal lymphoid tissues, 2H9 and 1E9 reacted with the nuclear membranes of histiocytes and interdigitating reticulum cells, whereas 1A2 stained only rare cells of an unknown type. All three antibodies failed to react with B or T cells in frozen tissue sections of normal lymphoid tissues. The use of these three antibodies should facilitate the diagnosis of histiocyte and interdigitating reticulum (IR) cell-related neoplasms, namely, true histiocytic lymphoma, malignant histiocytosis, and Hodgkin's disease. True histiocytic lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease exhibit similar reactivities with these three and with two other monoclonal antibodies (HeFi-1 and Tac), suggesting that these two types of lymphoma are related. In contrast, malignant histiocytosis was negative for 2H9, 1A2, Tac, and HeFi-1. The difference in the phenotypic expression of true histiocytic lymphoma and malignant histiocytosis indicates that they are two different disease entities.

One hundred four cases of malignant lymphomas, including 90 cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, 5 cases of histiocytic malignancy, and 9 cases of Hodgkin's disease were analyzed pathologically and immunologically using a panel of monoclonal and conventional antibodies for T-, B-, histiocyte, and Hodgkin's neoplastic cells. Our results revealed a high frequency of T-cell lymphoma (42.3%), a low percentage of follicular lymphoma (10.5%), and Hodgkin's disease (8.7%) in Taiwan. More than half of the malignant lymphomas belonged to the high-risk unfavorable group. Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (33 cases) showed characteristic clinical and histologic features, which can sometimes be confused with Hodgkin's disease. Monoclonal antibodies Leu-M1 and 2H9 were an important aid for their differential diagnosis. Five of the 33 peripheral T-cell lymphomas were positive for antibody to adult T-cell lymphoma/leukemia (ATL) virus associated antigen (ATLA). Four patients were from the northeast coast of Taiwan, I-Lan county. Five (4.8%) were diagnosed as true histiocytic malignancies, including two true histiocytic lymphoma and three malignant histiocytosis. Two cases each of large cell lymphoma and immunoblastic lymphoma showed no identifiable marker expression. The distribution of lymphoproliferative disorders in Taiwan is similar to that in Japan but much different from western countries.

Eighteen cases of malignant lymphoma were labelled by ABC immunohistologic method with various monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies. It was found that all were OKT9 antiserum positive and cytokeratin negative. In B cell lymphomas, 9/18 cases were positive for B1; 7 positive for each of I2+ and Leu 10+; 6 for J5+, and 5 for B2+. In 6 cases of T cell lymphoma, 5 cases were positive for T3+ and Tac+ each; 4 for T11+ and 2 for T6+ while all were positive for T4 and negative or weakly positive for T8A. There was 1 case of histiocytic lymphoma and 2 of Hodgkin's lymphoma showing positive reaction to MO1, 2H9 and lysozyme antibody in their tumor cells and R-S cells.

The interaction of 3 monoclonal antibodies (MAbs)--anti-HeFi-1, anti-2H9, and anti-IRac--with Reed-Sternberg (RS) cells was examined in vitro. MAb anti-2H9 induced specific modulation of the corresponding antigen (Ag) from the cell surface. Cell-bound anti-2H9 antibody (Ab)-Ag complexes rapidly disappeared during incubation of cells at 37 degrees C for 2-4 hours. This early loss was followed by reappearance of the Ag on the cell surface within 4-12 hours. In contrast, anti-HeFi-1 and anti-IRac bound avidly to the surface of RS cells and persisted for more than 3 days. During this period, there were no significant changes in the expression of HeFi-1 or IRac Ag on the surface of tumor cells. Cell surface-bound Abs were distributed uniformly, and there was no evidence of microaggregation, as determined by electron microscopy. None of the 3 MAbs was directly cytotoxic or exhibited complement-mediated cytotoxicity. On the basis of these findings (persistence of anti-HeFi-1 and anti-IRac on the cell surface), these 2 MAbs may be suitable for immunoimaging and immunotherapy for Hodgkin's disease.

Hodgkin's mononuclear cells, Reed-Sternberg (H-RS) cells, and U-937 and SU-DHL-1 histocytic cell lines were induced to differentiate by phorbol ester in cultures. The phenotypes of cells were determined by a panel of antibodies specific for monocytes, histiocytes, and interdigitating reticulum cells. Before induction, SU-DHL-1 cells and H-RS cells expressed similar markers, such as HeFi-1, 2H9, 1A2, and 1E9. In addition, SU-DHL-1 cells were also stained by Tac and Leu M5. Other monocyte markers, including OK M1, Co Mo2, BRL Mo1, BRL Mo2, and Leu M3 were consistently negative in both types of cells. After induction, SU-DHL-1 cells conserved the same phenotype, but H-RS cells became negative for HeFi-1, 1A2, and 2H9. The U-937 cells expressed Leu M1 and Co Mo2 and became positive for Leu M5, OK M1, Co Mo2, BRL Mo2, 2H9, and 1E9 after phorbol ester induction. The U-937 cells did not express HeFi-1 or 1A2. The marker expression of H-RS cells, SU-DHL-1 cells, and U-937 cells were compared with those of histiocytes or interdigitating reticulum cells in lymphoid tissues and with neoplastic cells in true histiocytic lymphoma and malignant histiocytosis. It is concluded that SU-DHL-1, U-937, and H-RS cells are derived from or most closely related to fixed histiocytes, free histiocytes, and interdigitating reticulum cells, respectively. Our study further confirms the diagnosis of SU-DHL-1 as true histiocytic lymphoma but reveals that U-937 is a case of malignant histiocytosis rather than the previously diagnosed histiocytic lymphoma. The phenotypes and induction properties of SU-DHL-1 cells are quite different from those of U-937 cells, which suggests that true histiocytic lymphoma and malignant histiocytosis are two distinct disease entities.

Tumor cells from the Hodgkin's cell line HDLM-1 were cultured in extracellular matrix (ECM)-coated flasks. Within 24 hours, the cells underwent rapid differentiation, accompanied by morphologic and phenotypic changes. A slow and less prominent, but similar change was observed in HDLM-1 cells after they had been induced with phorbol ester for 5 days. The ECM-induced cells became HeFi-1-negative and expressed antigens 2H9 and 1E9 on their nuclear membranes. These cells had punctate acid-phosphatase and esterase activities. Approximately 70% of the ECM-induced cells were elongated and had long, blunt cytoplasmic projections. These findings, together with evidence the authors previously presented, indicate that H-RS cells are related to interdigitating reticulum cells. The authors believe that the ECM-induced HDLM-1 cells can be used as an important model for studies of the nature and cell lineage of Hodgkin's disease.
