A feline monocytic cell line was established from a venous blood sample obtained from a healthy male donor cat. The cloned cells, temporarily named FLMo/K02, were successively passaged in vitro with cell growth medium consisting of RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum. Non-specific esterase and acid phosphatase, as marker enzymes, were clearly demonstrated by cytochemical examinations. The cells treated with allogeneic serum for two hours in advance showed enhanced reactivity to monoclonal antibodies, feline CD1a, canine CD11b, feline CD11c, canine CD11d, and feline MHC-II.

A novel canine lymphoma cell line, OSW, was established from the malignant pleural effusion of a dog with peripheral T-cell lymphoma. The immunoprofile as determined by flow cytometry was as follows: positive for CD45, CD49d, CD18, CD11a; weakly positive for CD11b, CD11c, CD11d; and negative for CD45RA, CD1a, CD1c, CD3, TCRalphabeta, TCRgammadelta, CD4, CD5, CD8a, CD8b, CD90(Thy1), CD21, MHCII, CD14(TUK4), CD34, and MPO. Immunocytochemistry of cytospin preparations was negative for cytoplasmic CD3, CD79a, and MPO, but was positive for CD20. The cell line had an oligoclonal T-cell receptor gamma (TCRgamma) gene rearrangement. Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) and single locus probe (SLP) analysis showed that there were copy number increases of loci on dog chromosome 13 (CFA 13), and copy number decreases were evident for regions of CFA 11, 22, 26, 30 and 32, which include several of the more common chromosomal aberrations reported previously in canine lymphoma. The OSW cell line grows rapidly in vitro and is tumorigenic as a xenograft in SCID/NOD mice. OSW represents one of only a few reported canine lymphoma cell lines and is the most thoroughly characterized. This cell line and xenograft represent significant in vitro and in vivo models, respectively, for comparative and translational lymphoma research.

A 6-year-old Bernese Mountain dog was presented with a history of lethargy and weight loss of 2 weeks duration. On physical examination the dog had pale mucous membranes and tachypnea. Ultrasound examination revealed hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, and mesenteric lymphadenomegaly. Results of a CBC included marked normocytic normochromic nonregenerative anemia, marked thrombocytopenia, and moderate leukocytosis with mild neutrophilia and a large population of unclassified round cells (6.2 x 10(3)/microL). The unclassified cells occasionally were bi- or multinucleated and had variably abundant pale basophilic cytoplasm that contained multiple irregular clear vacuoles and occasionally erythrocytes. Fine needle aspirate specimens of the mesenteric lymph nodes and spleen were composed of a population of round pleomorphic cells with the same features as the circulating cells. On flow cytometric analysis of peripheral blood, the unclassified cells expressed CD18, CD45, CD11c, CD1c, and CD14; immunocytochemical analysis of blood smears also indicated the cells were positive for CD1c, CD1a, and CD11c. The dog died a few hours after referral. The histologic interpretation of samples collected from spleen, liver, and lymph nodes was malignant neoplasia of histiocytic origin. Immunohistochemical staining yielded negative results for CD11d, a marker of red-pulp macrophages, ruling out hemophagocytic histiocytic sarcoma. Based on clinical and pathologic findings, the final diagnosis was disseminated histiocytic sarcoma (DHS) with peripheral blood involvement. To our knowledge, DHS in a dog with evidence and immunophenotyping of neoplastic cells in peripheral blood has been reported only rarely.

A 9-month-old male Great Dane had progressive generalized nodular dermatopathy for several months. There were > 100 raised, alopecic, firm, painful nodules throughout the skin. Aspirates from several lesions yielded moderate numbers of irregularly round or polygonal to spindle-shaped cells with mild to moderate anisocytosis and few inflammatory cells, and the cytologic interpretation was proliferation of mesenchymal or histiocytic cells. On histopathologic examination, nodules were composed of densely packed sheets of round to spindle-shaped cells with mild anisokaryosis and low mitotic activity. Multifocal histiocytic sarcoma with a spindle-cell pattern was diagnosed based on morphologic features and intense expression of CD18. Additional immunophenotypic analysis on frozen sections of tissue confirmed the diagnosis of histiocytic sarcoma; expression of CD18, CD45, CD1a, CD11b, and CD11c, limited expression of Thy-1 (CD90) and CD80, and lack of expression of CD4, CD11d, and CD86 indicated that the cells were likely interstitial dendritic cells; a review of reactive and neoplastic dendritic cells is provided. Based on staging, internal organs were not affected. Sequential treatment with lomustine and doxorubicin failed to prevent progression of the cutaneous lesions, and the dog died 3 months after initial diagnosis. At necropsy, a focus of neoplastic cells was present in one lymph node, but except for skin other organs were not involved. The clinical presentation of histiocytic sarcoma may be unusual, and neoplastic cells may lack overt features of malignancy on cytologic and histopathologic examination. In some instances, immunophenotyping is required to differentiate histiocytic sarcoma from other histiocytic disorders.

Histiocytic proliferative disorders are commonly observed in dogs and less often cats. Histiocytic disorders occur in most of the dendritic cell (DC) lineages. Canine cutaneous histiocytoma originates from Langerhans cells (LCs) indicated by expression of CD1a, CD11c/CD18, and E-cadherin. When histiocytomas occur as multiple lesions in skin with optional metastasis to lymph nodes and internal organs, the disease resembles cutaneous Langerhans cell histiocytosis of humans. Langerhans cell disorders do not occur in feline skin. Feline pulmonary LCH has been recognized as a cause of respiratory failure due to diffuse pulmonary infiltration by histiocytes, which express CD18 and E-cadherin and contain Birbeck's granules. In dogs and cats, histiocytic sarcomas (HS) arise from interstitial DCs that occur in most tissues of the body. Histiocytic sarcomas begin as localized lesions, which rapidly disseminate to many organs. Primary sites include spleen, lung, skin, brain (meninges), lymph node, bone marrow, and synovial tissues of limbs. An indolent form of localized HS, progressive histiocytosis, originates in the skin of cats. Hemophagocytic HS originates in splenic red pulp and bone marrow macrophages in dogs and cats. In dogs, histiocytes in hemophagocytic HS express CD11d/CD18, which is a leuko-integrin highly expressed by macrophages in splenic red pulp and bone marrow. Canine reactive histiocytic diseases, systemic histiocytosis (SH) and cutaneous histiocytosis, are complex inflammatory diseases with underlying immune dysregulation. The lesions are dominated by activated interstitial DCs and lymphocytes, which invade vessel walls and extend as vasocentric infiltrates in skin, lymph nodes, and internal organs (SH).
