The diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease is based on histopathologic examination and the demonstration of Reed-Sternberg cells. These cells express antigens (Ki-1/CD30 CD15) which are of diagnostic value. Two types of Hodgkin's disease are now identified: 1. the "classical Hodgkin's disease" which includes nodular sclerosis, mixed cellularity and some tumors rich in malignant cells formerly designated Hodgkin's disease with lymphocyte depletion; 2. the "lymphocyte predominance Hodgkin's disease" in particular the nodular form (paragranuloma). These lesions are now considered an indolent form of B-cell lymphoma with possible transformation into large B-cell lymphoma. Epstein-Barr virus is involved in the "Classical Hodgkin's disease" but not in the "Lymphocyte predominance Hodgkin's disease". However, the role of Epstein-Barr virus in the occurrence of the disease and the prognostic implications of its detection remain ro be elucidated.

D006689 Hodgkin Disease A malignant disease characterized by progressive enlargement of the lymph nodes, spleen, and general lymphoid tissue. In the classical variant, giant usually multinucleate Hodgkin's and REED-STERNBERG CELLS are present; in the nodular lymphocyte predominant variant, lymphocytic and histiocytic cells are seen.

D016130 Immunophenotyping Process of classifying cells of the immune system based on structural and functional differences. The process is commonly used to analyze and sort T-lymphocytes into subsets based on CD antigens by the technique of flow cytometry.

D016256 Lewis X Antigen A trisaccharide antigen expressed on glycolipids and many cell-surface glycoproteins. In the blood the antigen is found on the surface of NEUTROPHILS; EOSINOPHILS; and MONOCYTES. In addition, Lewis X antigen is a stage-specific embryonic antigen.

D017730 Ki-1 Antigen A member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily that may play a role in the regulation of NF-KAPPA B and APOPTOSIS. It is found on activated T-LYMPHOCYTES; B-LYMPHOCYTES; NEUTROPHILS; EOSINOPHILS; MAST CELLS and NK CELLS. Overexpression of the Ki-1 antigen in hematopoietic malignancies make it clinically useful as a biological tumor marker. Signaling of the receptor occurs through its association with TNF RECEPTOR-ASSOCIATED FACTORS.
