[Flow cytometric analysis of cell surface antigens on leukemia cells by monoclonal antibodies and its application]. 1982

S Takamoto, and R Ueda, and K Ota, and T Takahashi

Nine monoclonal antibodies against null cell ALL cells were obtained by mouse hybridoma technique. Using two antibodies, namely B-1 and D-22, out of these, cell surface antigens on various leukemia cells, normal bone marrow cells, spleen cells and cultured cells were analysed by means of flow cytometry. B-1 antibody was found to have reactivities against null cell ALL cells as well as some CML-blastic crisis cells. The antibody reacted against some cultured lymphoid cell lines and also several percent of bone marrow cells. The reactivities of B-1 antibody were quite similar to those of c-ALL by Greaves et al and J-5 by Ritz et al. Radioimmunoprecipitation experiment suggested that B-1 antibody define the same antigen as the other two do. Meanwhile, D-22 antibody reacted against null cell ALL cells, but did not react against any other types of leukemia cells or any other cultured cell lines, or bone marrow cells. Thus D-22 antibody was considered to have higher specificity for null cell ALL cells than any other antibodies reported. On the other hand, the analyses by flow cytometry were well correlated with the analysis by immune adherence assay and by immunofluorescent microscopy. Besides, the analysis by flow cytometry provided us precise quantitative data and histogram pattern of positive cells. Furthermore, detailed examination of subpopulation could be done using cell sorter or other biological features could be analysed simultaneously using another fluorescent dye. Although, it has a few limitations, flow cytometry could take over other methods which are currently used in this field. Finally, the possibility of this method for the clinical diagnosis of leukemia was discussed.

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.

D007938 Leukemia A progressive, malignant disease of the blood-forming organs, characterized by distorted proliferation and development of leukocytes and their precursors in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemias were originally termed acute or chronic based on life expectancy but now are classified according to cellular maturity. Acute leukemias consist of predominately immature cells; chronic leukemias are composed of more mature cells.

D008215 Lymphocytes, Null A class of lymphocytes characterized by the lack of surface markers specific for either T or B lymphocytes. Null Cells,Cell, Null,Cells, Null,Lymphocyte, Null,Null Cell,Null Lymphocyte,Null Lymphocytes
D002478 Cells, Cultured Cells propagated in vitro in special media conducive to their growth. Cultured cells are used to study developmental, morphologic, metabolic, physiologic, and genetic processes, among others. Cultured Cells,Cell, Cultured,Cultured Cell
D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.
