The neoplastic cells from a patient with B-cell prolymphocytic leukemia exhibited sheep red blood cell (SRBC) rosette formation. Immunochemistries revealed no reactivity with T-cell monoclonal antibodies OKT 3, 4, 8, and 11. However, the neoplastic cells expressed characteristics of B-cells including surface IgM and IgD associated with lambda light chains, Ia-like antigenicity, and reactivity to monoclonal antibodies against B-cell antigens B1, B2, and B4. Inhibition procedures revealed that SRBC rosette formation was the result of binding activity of surface immunoglobulin to SRBC. Pretreatment of the leukemic cells with antihuman IgM or lambda antisera, or pronase or trypsin blocked rosette formation with SRBC. Circulating antibody to SRBC was also suspected by the fact that preincubation of SRBC with heat-inactivated patient's serum resulted in agglutination of the SRBC.

D011947 Receptors, Antigen, B-Cell IMMUNOGLOBULINS on the surface of B-LYMPHOCYTES. Their MESSENGER RNA contains an EXON with a membrane spanning sequence, producing immunoglobulins in the form of type I transmembrane proteins as opposed to secreted immunoglobulins (ANTIBODIES) which do not contain the membrane spanning segment.

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.
