B and T cells in a cat with thymic lymphosarcoma. 1975

L Mackey, and W Jarrett, and O Jarrett, and L Wilson

The mixed antiglobulin reaction and the formation of nonimmune rosettes with guinea-pig red blood cells (RBC) distinguished feline B and T cells, respectively. In a cat with thymic lymphosarcoma, the cells reacting in these tests formed separate, nonoverlapping populations. The malignant cells were large lymphoblasts replacing the normal thymus and infiltrating local lymph nodes, where they localized only in the paracortical, i.e., thymus-dependent areas. Cells from the nodes could therefore be identified as malignant or normal by their size. The mixed antiglobulin reaction showed that the malignant cells did not carry the surface Ig characteristic of B cells, whereas these malignant cells formed nonimmune rosettes with guinea-pig RBC. Among lymph node cells, most surviving normal and small lymphocytes, from outside the thymus-dependent areas, reacted as B cells. The morphologic evidence therefore corroborated the test results, which indicated that the formation of rosettes with guinea-pig RBC seems a reliable means for the demonstration of T cells in the cat.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007104 Immune Adherence Reaction A method for the detection of very small quantities of antibody in which the antigen-antibody-complement complex adheres to indicator cells, usually primate erythrocytes or nonprimate blood platelets. The reaction is dependent on the number of bound C3 molecules on the C3b receptor sites of the indicator cell.

D007136 Immunoglobulins Multi-subunit proteins which function in IMMUNITY. They are produced by B LYMPHOCYTES from the IMMUNOGLOBULIN GENES. They are comprised of two heavy (IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS) and two light chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAINS) with additional ancillary polypeptide chains depending on their isoforms. The variety of isoforms include monomeric or polymeric forms, and transmembrane forms (B-CELL ANTIGEN RECEPTORS) or secreted forms (ANTIBODIES). They are divided by the amino acid sequence of their heavy chains into five classes (IMMUNOGLOBULIN A; IMMUNOGLOBULIN D; IMMUNOGLOBULIN E; IMMUNOGLOBULIN G; IMMUNOGLOBULIN M) and various subclasses.

D008228 Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin Any of a group of malignant tumors of lymphoid tissue that differ from HODGKIN DISEASE, being more heterogeneous with respect to malignant cell lineage, clinical course, prognosis, and therapy. The only common feature among these tumors is the absence of giant REED-STERNBERG CELLS, a characteristic of Hodgkin's disease.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.
