Surface markers on peripheral blood lymphocytes of patients with follicular lymphoma suggesting a clonal origin. 1978

O Wetter, and H Delbrück, and K H Linder

PBL of 14 patients with FL were examined by membrane fluorescence using anti-Ig antibodies (mu, gamma, delta; kappa, lambda), spontaneous rosette formation with SRBC and rosette formation with SRBC coated by antibody-complement complexes (EAC). Eight of the patients were untreated. In 3 patients monoclonal Ig were detected in the serum or urine. 7 patients exhibited clonal proliferation as judged by analysis of surface Ig. In addition, normal or elevated figures for EAC rosettes were found. The strong expression of S. Ig in PBL of FL patients is in contrast to the findings in CLL and multiple meloma, the increase of EAC-rosettes is shared by myeloma patients. It follows that membrane properties of PBL as studied in this work is of value in the diagnosis of malignancies of the B-cell system.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
D008224 Lymphoma, Follicular Malignant lymphoma in which the lymphomatous cells are clustered into identifiable nodules within the LYMPH NODES. The nodules resemble to some extent the GERMINAL CENTER of lymph node follicles and most likely represent neoplastic proliferation of lymph node-derived follicular center B-LYMPHOCYTES.

D011947 Receptors, Antigen, B-Cell IMMUNOGLOBULINS on the surface of B-LYMPHOCYTES.

D012397 Rosette Formation The in vitro formation of clusters consisting of a cell (usually a lymphocyte) surrounded by antigenic cells or antigen-bearing particles (usually erythrocytes, which may or may not be coated with antibody or antibody and complement). The rosette-forming cell may be an antibody-forming cell, a memory cell, a T-cell, a cell bearing surface cytophilic antibodies, or a monocyte possessing Fc receptors. Rosette formation can be used to identify specific populations of these cells. Immunocytoadherence,Formation, Rosette,Formations, Rosette,Immunocytoadherences,Rosette Formations
