Human peripheral blood contains two populations of dendritic cells (DC) but their developmental relationship has not been established. Freshly isolated CD11c- DC possessed a lymphoid morphology, lacked myeloid markers but expressed lymphoid markers (CD4+ CD10+) whilst the CD11c+ DC were monocytoid in appearance and expressed myeloid markers. Although both populations were allostimulatory, only the CD11c+ DC were able to take up antigen. Irrespective of the culture conditions the CD11c- cells developed into CD11c- CD13- CD33- CD4+ CD1a- CD83+/- DC. In contrast, cultured CD11c+ cells developed the phenotype CD11c+ CD13+ CD33+/- CD4- CD1a+ CD83+ CD9+. Only the CD11c+ DC expressed macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) receptor and gave rise to CD14+, esterase+, phagocytic macrophages when cultured in M-CSF. These data suggest that these two populations of DC represent distinct lineages of antigen-presenting DC.

Cytologic, immunologic, and cytogenetic studies were performed on the blast cells of a newborn with Down syndrome and transient myeloproliferative disease. This hematologic disorder is uncommon, and occurs primarily in infants with Down syndrome. This boy presented with a high white blood cell count and a high percentage of blast cells, without anemia or thrombocytopenia. Chromosome analysis showed a constitutional trisomy 21 without any other clonal abnormality. A three-color flow cytometric analysis was performed and revealed two different CD45 dim, CD34(+), CD117(+), CD56(+) immature subpopulations: the normal immature myeloid precursor and an immature blast cell population that expressed CD41, CD42, CD61, CD36, CD13, CD1a, and CD2. We postulate that this population could be the leukemic precursor involved in the acute megakaryoblastic leukemia frequently observed in children with Down syndrome.

At the ISAC 2000 Congress, the Clinical Cytometry Society organized a meeting of international experts to reach consensus on the minimum number of antibodies required for a full evaluation of hematologic and lymphoid neoplasias. A questionnaire was distributed prior to the meeting to numerous experts from US and European institutions and 13 responses were received. At the meeting, 25 individuals, including most of those who returned responses, participated in the discussions and voted on the issues presented. In chronic lymphoproliferative disorders (CLD), 9 antibodies (anti-CD5, CD19, kappa, lambda, CD3, CD20, CD23, CD10, and CD45) were deemed essential for initial evaluation by 75% of the participants. There was near unanimity that additional markers (selected from CD22, FMC7, CD11c, CD103, CD38, CD25, CD79b and heavy chains for B-cell disorders, and CD4, CD7, CD8, CD2, CD56, CD16, TCRa/b, and TCRg/d for T-cell disorders) would be needed to fully characterize CLD, although not every marker would be useful in all cases. Tissue lymphomas were believed to be similar to CLD, needing a minimum of 12--16 markers. However, for some cases, CD30, bcl-2, TdT, CD71, CD1a, and CD34 were cited as useful by the participants. Markers mentioned for plasma cell disorders included kappa, lambda, CD38, CD45, CD56, CD19, CD20, CD138, and heavy chains. Of 17 voting participants, 16 agreed that between 5 to 8 markers would be essential reagents for plasma cell disorders. For acute leukemia (AL), 10 markers (CD10, CD19, CD13, CD33, CD34, CD45, CD7, CD14, CD3, and HLADR) were considered essential by 75% of participants for initial characterization of the leukemia lineage. Most (>75%) agreed that at least one more B (CD20, CD22, CD79a, IgM), T (CD1a, CD2, CD4, CD5, CD8), myeloid (CD11b, CD15, CD64, CD117, myeloperoxidase), erythroid (CD36, CD71, glycophorin A), and megakaryocytic (CD41, CD61) reagents should be included in the essential panel. However, there was no agreement as to which was optimal. Thus, approximately 13--15 of those reagents would be considered essential in all cases of AL, whereas others (CD16, CD56, CDw65, TdT, and cytoplasmic CD3) were mentioned as useful in some cases. Almost all voting participants believed that the appropriate number of markers for complete characterization of AL would average 20--24. The majority of the responders (11 of 13) indicated that fewer reagents could be used in monitoring or staging patients with previously characterized disease, but not all ventured a specific number of reagents. From the above results, we conclude that the phenotypic analysis of hematologic and lymphoid neoplasia requires a rather extensive panel of reagents. Supplementary reagents might even be necessary if they prove to become relevant for diagnostic purposes. Reducing the number of antibodies could significantly compromise the diagnostic accuracy, appropriate monitoring, or therapy of these disorders.

The ability of CD34+ leukemic cells to differentiate to dendritic cells (DCs) was investigated in 18 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and 4 lymphoid leukemia (ALL) patients. The generation of DCs was determined by the expression of DC-associated CD1a or CD83 (more than 30%) with costimulatory molecules, by CD80 antigens (>20%), and by the exhibition of allostimulatory activity. In the AML patients, allostimulatory mature DCs were generated from 3 of 9 M0 or M1, 2 of 5 M2,2 of 4 M4 or M5, and 3 of 4 ALL (L2) cases. In total, DCs were more efficiently induced from cases expressing over 75% of CD34+ among whole bone marrow mononuclear cells (8 of 12), compared with those under 75% (2 of 10; P < .05). B-cell (CD19), natural killer (NK)-cell (CD56), or T-cell (CD7) lineage markers, which were aberrantly expressed on the blasts, were rarely found on leukemic DCs at the end of the culture period, and myeloid (CD13, CD33), not lymphoid (CD10), markers were shown on ALL-derived DCs. In Philadelphia chromosome-positive ALL or AML patients with t (8;21), DCs were confirmed to be of leukemic origin by fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis.

T-acute lymphoblastic leukemias (T-ALLs) derive from human T-lymphoid precursors arrested at various early stages of development. Correlation of phenotype and T-cell receptor (TCR) status with RAG-1 and pT alpha transcription in 114 T-ALLs demonstrated that they largely reflect physiologic T-lymphoid development. Half the TCR alpha beta lineage T-ALLs expressed a pre-TCR, as evidenced by RAG-1, pT alpha, and cTCR beta expression, absence of TCR delta deletion, and a sCD3(-), CD1a(+), CD4/8 double-positive (DP) phenotype, in keeping with a population undergoing beta selection. Most TCR gamma delta T-ALLs were pT alpha, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT), and RAG-1(lo/neg), double-negative/single-positive (DN/SP), and demonstrated only TCR beta DJ rearrangement, whereas 40% were pT alpha, TdT, and RAG-1 positive, DP, and demonstrated TCR beta V(D)J rearrangement, with cTCR beta expression in proportion. As such they may correspond to TCR alpha beta lineage precursors selected by TCR gamma delta expression, to early gamma delta cells recently derived from a pT alpha(+) common alpha beta/gamma delta precursor, or to a lineage-deregulated alpha beta/gamma delta intermediate. Approximately 30% of T-ALLs were sCD3/cTCR beta(-) and corresponded to nonrestricted thymic precursors because they expressed non-T-restricted markers such as CD34, CD13, CD33, and CD56 and were predominantly DN, CD1a, pT alpha, and RAG-1 low/negative, despite immature TCR delta and TCR gamma rearrangements. TCR gene configuration identified progressive T-lymphoid restriction. T-ALLs, therefore, provide homogeneous expansions of minor human lymphoid precursor populations that can aid in the understanding of healthy human T-cell development.

Hematopoietic neoplasm coexpressing CD4 and CD56 includes a subset of acute myeloid leukemia with myelomonocytic differentiation, plasmacytoid monocyte tumor, and other immature hematopoietic neoplasms of undefined origin. Herein, we report a CD4+CD56+CD68+ hematopoietic tumor that was thought to be a tumor of plasmacytoid monocytes. This case is unique in the absence of accompanying myelomonocytic leukemia and the faint expression of cCD3 on the tumor cells. The patient was a 22-yr old man presented with multiple lymphadenopathy and an involvement of the bone marrow. Tumor cells were large and monomorphic with an angulated eosinophilic cytoplasm of moderate amount. Nuclei of most tumor cells were eccentric and round with one or two prominent nucleoli. Rough endoplasmic reticulum was prominent in electron microscopic examination. Tumor cells expressed CD4, CD7, CD10, CD45RB, CD56, CD68, and HLA-DR and were negative for CD1a, CD2, sCD3, CD5, CD13, CD14, CD20, CD33, CD34, CD43, CD45RA, TIA-1, S-100, and TdT. cCD3 was not detected in the immunostaining using paraffin tissue, but was faintly expressed in flow cytometry and immunostaining using a touch imprint slide. T-cell receptor gene rearrangement analysis and EBV in situ hybridization showed negative results. Cytochemically, myeloperoxidase, Sudan black B, and alpha naphthyl butyrate esterase were all negative.

Scattered evidence suggests that the human peritoneal cavity contains cells of the dendritic cell (DC) lineage but their characterization is missing. Here, we report that the peritoneal cavity of normal subjects and of stable patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) contains a population of CD14(+) cells that can differentiate into DCs or macrophages. Within this pool, we characterized a CD14(+)CD4(+) cell subset (2.2% of the peritoneal cells) fulfilling the definition of myeloid DC precursors or pre-DC1 cells. These cells expressed high levels of HLA-DR, CD13, CD33, and CD86, and low levels of CD40, CD80, CD83, CD123, CD209, TLR-2 and TLR-4. These cells retained CD14 expression until late stages of differentiation, despite concomitant up-regulation of DC-SIGN (CD209), CD1a, CD80 and CD40. Peritoneal pre-DC1 cells had endocytic capacity that was down-regulated upon LPS/IFN-gamma stimulation, were more potent allo-stimulators than peritoneal CD14(+)CD4(-/lo) cells and monocyte-derived macrophages, and induced Th1 cytokine responses. More importantly, the number of peritoneal pre-DC1 cells increased during PD-associated peritonitis, with a different profile for Gram positive and Gram negative peritonitis, suggesting that these cells participate in the induction of peritoneal adaptive immune responses, and may be responsible for the bias towards Th1 responses during peritonitis.

To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity analysis of the lineage related antibodies in acute leukemia immunophenotyping by flow cytometry (FCM), immunophenotyping in 184 patients with acute leukemia was performed by FCM analysis. The results showed that in the lineage-related antibodies of acute myelocytic leukemia (AML), the sensitivity of CD13 and CD33 was higher (95.5% and 91.2%, respectively), the specificity of them was deficient (72.5% and 62.2%, respectively); the sensitivity of MPO was low (69.1%), but the specificity was high (100%); the sensitivity and specificity of CD117 were high (88.2% and 100%, respectively); the sensitivity of CD14 and CD15 was low (18.4% and 27.2%, respectively); the specificity of CD14 with monocytes was high. As the lineage-related antibodies of B-lineage ALL were concerned, CD19 showed high sensitivity and low specificity (100% vs 83.4%); the sensitivity and specificity of CD79a (96.4% vs 100%) and CD22 (100% vs 100%) were high; the sensitivity and specificity of CD10 (53.6% vs 82.5%) and CD20 (70.4% vs 87.5%) were low. In T-lineage ALL, the specificity of CD3 was high (97.5%), but the sensitivity was below the mark (80.0%); the sensitivity of CD7 was high (100%), but the specificity was low (77.9%); while the sensitivity and specificity of CD5, CD2 and CD1a were all deficient. In conclusion, the sensitivity and specificity analysis of the lineage-related antibodies in acute leukemia immunophenotyping are coincident with St Jude immunophenotyping project. It seems only that CD117 is superior to MPO in defining AML, but the sensitivity and specificity analysis of CD22 and CD79 are similar in defining B-lineage ALL, therefore, anyone of them may be selected as your need.

A 57-year-old man became aware of left supraclavicular lymph node swelling, which was subsequently diagnosed as Langerhans cell sarcoma, based on a positive immunophenotype for CD1a, S-100 protein, and langerin, and histologically bizarre pleomorphism. The tumor became leukemic 3 months later. Despite intensive chemotherapy, he died of disease progression 7 months after the initial diagnosis. Tumor cells in the leukemic phase expressed CD5, CD7, CD13, CD33, CD34, CD68, and CD123. These findings suggested leukemic transformation from Langerhans cell sarcoma. Leukemic transformation may be a clinical manifestation of advanced Langerhans cell sarcoma, and should be differentiated from acute myelogenous leukemia.

The extracellular matrix plays a critical role in macrophage maturation. In this study, the HL60 cell line was used as a model of leukemic myeloid cell differentiation. We assessed the ability of HL60 cells cultured on fibronectin substratum prior to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) induction to differentiate into terminally differentiated macrophages. Beside their distinctive macrophage morphology, they expressed antigen receptors CD14, TLR2, TLR4 and CD68, and displayed enhanced phagocytic activity and production of reactive oxygen species. Expression of CD13, CD33, CD15 and alpha-naphthyl-acetate esterase was also maintained, however, differentiated HL60 cells were HLA-DR and CD1a negative. Here, we describe the enhanced capacity of fibronectin-adherent HL60 cells to differentiate into macrophages in response to PMA.
