Abstract
Of three patients with mediastinal malignant lymphoma, lymphoblastic type, at the time of diagnosis one also had acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML), and the other two had blood and bone marrow findings indicative of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The latter two patients developed the hematologic picture of AML less than eight months later. In all cases, AML was confirmed by cytochemical studies of peripheral blood and bone marrow cells. Autopsy of two of the patients revealed only AML. The myeloid nature of the proliferative cells was demonstrated with the naphthol-ASD-chloroacetate stain (NCA) on postmortem tissue sections. This study further supports the hypothesis of a common origin of neoplastic lymphoid and myeloid cells from pluripotent bone marrow stem cells.

Abstract
Twelve cases of Philadelphia chromosome positive chronic granulocytic leukaemia (CGL) in blast transformation have been investigated using ultrastructural peroxidase detection. In all cases, the leukaemic blasts were negative for myeloperoxidase on the basis of standard cytochemistry. In nine cases a variable proportion of blasts contained peroxidase activity detectable only by electron microscopy, permitting definition of their myeloid nature. By their distinct characteristics and localization, different peroxidase activities were recognized. Thus, several types of blasts were identified: megakaryoblasts (MKB), basophil promyelocytes (BPM), myeloid blasts with small granules containing peroxidase (MyB), and proerythroblasts (ProE). MKB were predominant in two cases and present in four cases, mixed with other myeloid blasts. BPM were abundant in one case and present in seven cases. MyB were identified as a majority in four cases. Three cases remained without any peroxidase. It is concluded that ultrastructural detection of peroxidases is of value for the identification of early myeloid blasts. Their high incidence and the simultaneous presence of several myeloid precursors suggest that during the blast crisis the target cell is frequently a pluripotent myeloid stem cell.

Abstract
The case of a 4-year-old boy with ALL, possibly developing subsequent to a lymphoma involving the thoracic cavity, which was shown to be of the T-cell type, is presented. The leukemic cells had a 5q-- anomaly, which had previously been described only in cases of refractory anemia and/or AML. The 5q-- abnormality was invariably accompanied by a 9p-- chromosome in the leukemic cells. The interstitial deletion leading to the 5q-- chromosome was shown with banding techniques to be similar to that described previously in myeloproliferative disorders. Some aspects of the 5q-- anomaly in ALL and its relation to previous experience with this karyotypic change are discussed.

Abstract
Forty-four patients with Ph positive leukemia (36 developing blast crisis after chronic phase and eight presenting in acute leukemia) were classified into subgroups on the basis of reactivity of blasts with an anti-serum made against non-T,non-B acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL+), levels of terminal transferase enzyme (TdT+) and morphology. Positivity with anti-ALL serum was the most sensitive and reliable marker, and TdT was an important aid. The presence of "lymphoid" blasts in blast crisis of CML was related to the response to chemotherapy incorporating Vincristine and Prednisolone (VP). Patients with ALL+ blasts frequently (14 of 15 cases) responded to therapy while 21 of 25 patients who had no ALL+ blasts failed to respond. The clinical course of the ALL+ patients was variable: eight patients remitted with return to the appearances of the chronic phase; four patients demonstrated elimination of the Ph1 positive clone with hypoplasia and this was followed by normal (Ph1 negative) marrow regeneration in two. Subsequent relapse was of either the ALL+ "lymphoid" or the ALL-myeloid type. A regimen incorporating VP should be the treatment of choice in "lymphoid" blast crisis of CML.

Abstract
Ph1 positive leukaemia was diagnosed in eight of 123 (6.5%) consecutive new cases of childhood leukaemia. Four patients presented as typical chronic granulocytic leukaemia (CGL) and four as acute leukaemia, two of the four children with CGL have since developed blast crisis. Morphological and immunological characterization of the blasts in these six acute cases was suggestive of a lymphoid crisis in three, a mixed crisis in two, and a myeloid crisis in one. Remission was achieved in five of the six patients but lasted more than a year in only two; in one of these two patients the blasts at the time of crisis lacked the Ph1 chromosome and in the other, who presented in myeloid crisis, remission ended in a lymphoid crisis. Cytogenetic studies showed unusual translocations in two of the eight children. Serial examination showed that three children the proportion of Ph1 positive cells in the marrow was reduced to less than 6% at the time of remission from acute leukaemia. We conclude that Ph1 positive leukaemia in childhood presents frequently as acute leukaemia and may even mimic 'good risk' acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. The response to treatment cannot be predicted by morphological or immunological characterization of blast cells. Storage of bone marrow for possible autologous transplantation should be considered in children who achieve remission.

Abstract
Antisera have been raised in rabbits to the lymphoblastoid cell line NALM 1 precoated with anti-lymphocyte serum (ALS). Following absorption with chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells (CLL) the antisera reacted mainly with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) cells, and were very similar in specificity to antisera raised to ALL cells precoated with ALS. Leukemia cells from the following numbers of patients were positive for the anti-NALM 1 sera in a complement-dependent cytotoxicity test; 11/14 ALL, 3/15 acute myelocytic leukemia (AML), 1/5 chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) and 0/8 CLL. Normal B and T peripheral blood lymphocytes were negative. The titer of the anti-NALM 1 sera against positive cells was 1:64 to 1:256 whereas the undiluted sera did not react with negative cells. Ten out of 11 of the positive ALL cells were of the non-B non-T type. However, cells from 1/4 T ALL patients and a cultured T ALL line 8402 were also positive. Six of 12 cultured lymphoblastoid cell lines were positive, all of which were of malignant origin. The molecular weight of the ALL antigen detected by anti-NALM-1 serum was determined by immunoprecipitation and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) to be approximately 98,000 daltons.

Abstract
Using colony assays for human erythropoietic (BFU-E, CFU-E) and granulopoietic (CFU-C) progenitors, normal and leukemic myelopoietic differentiation were compared; similar patterns were found in both. However, the origin of blast cells characteristic of the disease could not be established indicating the need for a direct approach to these cells. A colony assay for blast cells in acute myeloblastic leukemia is described. Blast cell colony-formation is significantly correlated with blast cell number, and the colonies contain cells of blast like morphology without differentiation markers. It is proposed that this method, taken in conjunction with results from assays of myelopoiesis and lymphopoiesis, may provide a more complete picture of leukemic differentiation. It is anticipated that such a model will be useful in devising new therapies.

Abstract
Using a microcytotoxicity assay, the serological reactivity of human granulocytes, namely neutrophils and eosinophils, and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cells and cultured CML cell lines (K562, NALM-1) were examined. Mature granulocyte forms and cord granulocytes are readily lysed by specific granulocyte cytotoxins that do not react with random T and B lymphocytes, monocytes, red blood cells, or platelets. Furthermore, certain antisera were preferentially cytotoxic for eosinophil-enriched populations. Granulocytotoxin detected antigens on one of three CML blast cell populations tested and K562, but failed to react with NALM-1. By cytotoxicity, mature granulocytes were poor targets for B2-microglobulin and the appropriate HLA antisera although both sera types are absorbed with granulocytes. Furthermore, granulocytes did not possess B-lymphocytes (Ia-like) or blood group A, B, and Rh (D) antigens. Except for K562, both HLA and heterologous B-lymphocyte antisera were cytotoxic for the CML blast cell populations tested.

Abstract
A proportion of patients with blast crisis of CML have blast cells identical to those found in common non-T, non-B all, and whilst this disease is often referred to as lymphoid blast crisis (LBC), evidence is presented that it may in fact arise from a prelymphoid, pre-myeloid (pluripotential) stem cell. Recently developed membrane and enzyme markers (anti-ALL antiserum, TdT assay) have provided convenient diagnostic tests for the detection of LBC. The clinical and haematological features of LBC are reviewed: patients with LBC show a higher response rate to therapy with vincristine and prednisolone, and their survival may be significantly prolonged. The frequent occurrence of meningeal leukaemia suggests the need for prophylactic CNS therapy in LBC patients achieving remission.

Abstract
Five cases of malignant histiocytosis (MH) in patients being treated for acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) have been previously reported. Two additional cases are described here, all known cases are reviewed, and the phenomenon is discussed. The most tenable explanation for this phenomenon appears to be that ALL and MH may have been interrelated in these patients with both diseases originating from a common stem cell.

Abstract
The clinical and laboratory features of 4 patients with acute monocytic leukaemia are described. Surface membrane receptor studies of these patients have shown increasing strength of receptor expression occurs with increasing morphological maturity of the monocyte. In addition, the study shows that expression of membrane receptors can vary from patient to patient and also with time and treatment in an individual patient. A further finding has been the loss of positivity with specific anti-monocyte serum when the disease becomes refractory to therapy.

Abstract
The categorization of lymphosarcomas with immune markers has enriched the prognosis value of the WHO classification. The prolymphocytic (centrofollicular) B-type and the null lymphoblastic subtype have a good prognosis, while the (T- or B-) immunoblastic type and the T-lymphoblastic subtype have a poor prognosis.

Abstract
Two cases of Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1) positive acute lymphoblastic leukaemia are reported, both of which lost the Philadelphia chromosome during remission. In one patient remission of the acute lymphoblastic leukaemia continued but classical Ph1 positive chronic granulocytic leukaemia developed. In the other patient relapse of the acute lymphoblastic leukaemia occurred associated with the return of the Ph1 chromosome. The evidence suggests that the chromosome aberration occurred in a pluripotential stem cell, which in one case proliferated along both a lymphoid cell line and a myeloid cell line. Both cases responded well to conventional therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.

Abstract
The following rare Ph1-positive chromosome constitutions, based on the cytogenetic findings in three cases with acute leukemia, are presented. 1) A hypodiploid karyotype, primarily 43, -X, -7, -8,9p+ and a Ph1, in a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in relapse, followed by a complete remission and a normal chromosomal picture and then by the appearance of cells with a 46,XX,Ph1 karyotype. The Ph1 was due to a standard translocation between chromosomes no. 9 and no. 22. 2) The first demonstration of an unusual Ph1-translocation between chromosomes no. 19 and no. 22 in a condition other than chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML), i.e., acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML). 3) The presence of a Ph1 in acute erythroleukemia (EL) due to a translocation between chromosomes no. 4 and no. 22, this apparently being the first description of such a translocation in any disease. The cytogenetic findings, particularly those in the Ph1-positive case of ALL, were evaluated in relation to the cytologic and immunologic features, clinical courses and implications, and the interrelationship between the three conditions (AML, blastic phase of CML and ALL), which have to be considered in cases of Ph1-positive acute leukemia.

Abstract
The membrane phenotype of leukaemic cells was analysed during different stages of chronic myeloid leukaemia by a panel of markers. These included antisera against ALL antigen, p23,30 (Ia-like structure) and other T cell, B cell and myeloid markers 'Lymphoid' blast crisis shares the phenotype of common ALL (of non-T, non-B variety). Both leukemias react with anti-ALL serum and have pre-myeloid, pre-B lymphoid and pre-thymocyte characteristics. Their phenotype may reflect the characteristics of the pluripotential stem cell from which they derive. Nevertheless both leukaemias retain their undifferentiated characteristics and lack overt myeloid, B cell and thymocyte differentiation markers. Myeloid blast crisis and AML are negative with anti-ALL serum but some of the poorly differentiated myeloblasts react with anti-p23,30 serum (and negative for SmIg). The anti-p23,30 serum (used in a double marker assay combined with anti-immunoglobulin) detects some (4-11%) intermediate sized agranular p23,30+/SmIg-cells in peripheral blood during the chronic phase of CML as well as in normal foetal bone marrow. These could be myeloid stem cells (from which in CML the myeloid blast crisis arises). The results demonstrate that surface membrane analysis can aid exact diagnosis in different stages of CML.
