    Notes: Summary Surface marker studies were carried out on neoplastic cell samples (peripheral aspirates and skin biopsies) of 302 patients with non-Hodgkin lymphomas (221 patients) and acute lymphatic leukaemias (81 patients). In 11 patients with non-Hodgkin lymphomas (5%) and eight patients with acute lymphatic leukaemia (10%), the neoplastic cells possessed phenotypic characteristics of T cells. The investigations were carried out by means of an indirect immunofluorescence technique using a panel of monoclonal antibodies (OKT 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10; OKM 1; HNK 1 and VIL A 1). In addition, conventional markers (SIg, E-R 4°, E-R 37°, absorbed polyclonal rabbit antithymus and anti-TDT) were used. Our results, which show a pronounced phenotypic surface marker heterogeneity between the group of T-cell neoplasias, emphasize the diagnostic value of monoclonal antisera as compared to polyclonal reagents. Eleven different surface marker profiles were observed in the 19 patients investigated.

    Notes: Summary The number of B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes and their helper/inducer, cytotoxic/suppressor and NK/K subpopulations was measured in peripheral blood and spleen cell suspensions from patients with Hodgkin's disease (HD) in the active stage of the disease and in remission status, as well as in Non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) in active stage of the disease. B lymphocytes were determined by direct immunofluorescence and T lymphocytes with the E rosette technique. Helper/inducer, cytotoxic/suppressor, and NK/K T lymphocytes were determined by indirect immunofluorescence with the monoclonal antibodies OKT4, OKT8 and Leu7 (HNK1). In the same way, Lyt3 was used for determination of the total T lymphocytes. Whereas in peripheral blood of the NHL group an increase of B lymphocytes and a slight reduction of T lymphocytes could be observed, with normal distribution of the subpopulations, in patients with active HD as well as in those in remission, a marked absolute and relative decrease of T helper/inducer cells was found with normal cytotoxic/suppressor and NK/K proportion. In contrast to this, a significant increase of helper/inducer T lymphocytes with decreased cytotoxic/suppressor T proportion was found in spleen cell suspensions of patients with HD.

    Notes: Summary A panel of monoclonal antibodies that identify various antigens present on T and B cells was used to characterize circulating blood lymphocyte subsets in multiple myeloma [(MM) - 13 patients] and benign monoclonal gammopathy [(BMG) - 5 patients]. In MM and BMG an increase in B cell proportions (BA 1 positive cells) was observed, whereas T cells (Lyt 3 positive cells) were reduced compared to normal controls. However, with respect to the T cell subset distribution, a marked diversity between MM and BMG was noted. This may help to differentiate BMG from MM. In MM a relative decrease in inducer/helper T cells (OKT 4 positive cells) and increase in suppressor/cytotoxic T cells (OKT 8 positive cells) as well as in NK/K T cells (Leu 7 positive cells) was observed. On the other hand, in BMG the relative T cell subset distribution was comparable to those seen in normal subjects.
