Abstract
TK-ALCL1, a novel anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALK+ ALCL) cell line, was established from the primary tumor site of a 59-year-old Japanese male patient. The immune profile of TK-ALCL1 corresponds to that seen typically in primary ALCL cells, i.e., positive for ALK, CD30, EMA, and CD4, but negative for CD2, CD3, CD5, CD8a, and EBV-related antigens. The rearrangement of the T cell receptor-gamma locus shows that TK-ALCL1 is clonally derived from T-lineage lymphoid cells. FISH and RT-PCR analysis revealed that TK-ALCL1 has the nucleophosmin (NPM)-ALK fusion transcript, which is typical for ALK+ ALCL cell lines. When TK-ALCL1 was subcutaneously inoculated into 6-week-old BALB/c Rag2-/-/Jak3-/- (BRJ) mice, it formed tumor masses within 4-6 weeks. Morphological, immunohistochemical, and molecular genetic investigations confirmed that the xenograft and the original ALCL tumor were identical. The ALK inhibitors Alectinib and Lorlatinib suppressed proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Thus, TK-ALCL1 provides a useful in vitro and in vivo model for investigation of the biology of ALK+ ALCL and of novel therapeutic approaches targeting ALK.

[PMID: 32273277 DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.ccr-19-3417] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2019] [Revised: 02/19/2020] [Accepted: 04/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The murine Lym-1 mAb targets a discontinuous epitope (Lym-1 epitope) on several subtypes of HLA-DR, which is upregulated in a majority of human B-cell lymphomas and leukemias. Unlike CD19, the Lym-1 epitope does not downregulate upon crosslinking, which may provide an advantage as a target for CAR T-cell therapy. Lym-1 CAR T cells with a conventional 4-1BB and CD3ζ (BB3z) signaling domain exhibited impaired ex vivo expansion. This study aimed to identify the underlying mechanisms and develop strategies to overcome this effect. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN A functional humanized Lym-1 antibody (huLym-1-B) was identified and its scFv form was used for CAR design. To overcome observed impaired expansion in vitro, a huLym-1-B CAR using DAP10 and DAP12 (DAP) signaling domains was evaluated for ex vivo expansion and in vivo function. RESULTS Impaired expansion in huLym-1-B-BB3z CAR T cells was shown to be due to ligand-dependent suboptimal CAR signaling caused by interaction of the CAR binding domain and the surface of human T cells. Using the novel DAP signaling domain construct, the effects of suboptimal CAR signaling were overcome to produce huLym-1-B CAR T cells with improved expansion ex vivo and function in vivo. In addition, the Lym-1 epitope does not significantly downregulate in response to huLym-1-B-DAP CAR T cells both ex vivo and in vivo. CONCLUSIONS DAP intracellular domains can serve as signaling motifs for CAR, and this new construct enables nonimpaired production of huLym-1-B CAR T cells with potent in vivo antitumor efficacy.

Abstract
Signaling lymphocytic activation molecule family member 8 (SLAMF8) / B-lymphocyte activator macrophage expressed/CD353 is a member of the CD2 family. SLAMF8 suppresses macrophage function but enhances the growth of neoplastic mast cells via SHP-2. In this study, we found that some anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) samples were immunohistochemically positive for SLAMF8. However, we found no significant differences between SLAMF8-positive and SLAMF8-negative ALCL samples with respect to age, gender, site, or prognosis. We also identified SLAMF8 expression in ALCL cell lines, Karpas299, and SU-DHL-1. SLAMF8 knockdown decreased the activation of SHP-2 and the growth of these cell lines, and increased the apoptosis of these cell lines. In addition, we observed the interaction between SLAMF8 and SHP-2 in these cell lines using the DuoLink in situ kit. Taken together, these results suggest that SLAMF8 may enhance the growth of ALCL via SHP-2 interaction.

Abstract
The BCL-2-specific inhibitor, ABT-199 (venetoclax) has exhibited remarkable clinical activity in nearly all cases of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. In contrast, responses are usually much less in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), despite high level expression of BCL-2 in over 40% of cases, indicating that co-expression of related anti-apoptotic BCL-2 family proteins may limit the activity of ABT-199. We have investigated the roles of BCL-2 proteins in DLBCL cells using a panel of specific BCL-2 homology 3 (BH3)-mimetics and identified subgroups of these cells that exhibited marked and specific dependency on either BCL-2, BCL-XL or MCL-1 for survival. Dependency was associated with selective sequestration of the pro-apoptotic proteins BIM, BAX and BAK by the specific anti-apoptotic BCL-2 protein which was important for cellular survival. Sensitivity to BH3-mimetics was independent of genetic alterations involving the BCL-2 family and only partially correlated with protein expression levels. Treatment with ABT-199 displaced BAX and BIM from BCL-2, subsequently leading to BAK activation and apoptosis. In contrast, apoptosis induced by inhibiting BCL-XL with A1331852 was associated with a displacement of both BAX and BAK from BCL-XL and occurred independently of BIM. Finally, the MCL-1 inhibitor S63845 induced mainly BAX-dependent apoptosis mediated by a displacement of BAK, BIM and NOXA from MCL-1. In conclusion, our study indicates that in DLBCL, the heterogeneous response to BH3-mimetics is mediated by selective interactions between BAX, BAK and anti-apoptotic BCL-2 proteins.

Abstract
Anaplastic large cell lymphomas (ALCL) are mainly characterized by harboring the fusion protein nucleophosmin-anaplastic lymphoma kinase (NPM-ALK). The ALK inhibitor, crizotinib specifically induced apoptosis in Ba/F3 cells expressing NPM-ALK by inhibiting the activation of NPM-ALK and its downstream molecule, signal transducer and activator of transcription factor 3 (STAT3). We found that α-tocopherol, a major component of vitamin E, attenuated the effects of crizotinib independently of its anti-oxidant properties. Although α-tocopherol suppressed the inhibitory effects of crizotinib on the signaling axis including NPM-ALK and STAT3, it had no influence on the intake of crizotinib into cells. Crizotinib also directly inhibited the kinase activity of NPM-ALK; however, this inhibitory effect was not altered by the co-treatment with α-tocopherol. Whereas the nuclear localization of NPM-ALK was disappeared by the treatment with crizotinib, the co-treatment with α-tocopherol swept the effect of crizotinib and caused the localization of NPM-ALK in nucleus. The administration of α-tocopherol attenuated the anti-tumor activity of crizotinib against NPM-ALK-provoked tumorigenesis in vivo. Furthermore, the α-tocopherol-induced inhibition of crizotinib-caused apoptosis was also observed in NPM-ALK-positive cells derived from ALCL patients, namely, SUDHL-1 and Ki-JK. Collectively, these results not only revealed the novel mechanism underlying crizotinib-induced apoptosis in NPM-ALK-positive cells, but also suggest that the anti-tumor effects of crizotinib are attenuated when it is taken in combination with vitamin E.

Abstract
The COP9 signalosome (CSN) is a central component of the activation and remodelling cycle of cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases (CRLs), the largest enzyme family of the ubiquitin-proteasome system in humans. CRLs are implicated in the regulation of numerous cellular processes, including cell cycle progression and apoptosis, and aberrant CRL activity is frequently associated with cancer. Remodelling of CRLs is initiated by CSN-catalysed cleavage of the ubiquitin-like activator NEDD8 from CRLs. Here we describe CSN5i-3, a potent, selective and orally available inhibitor of CSN5, the proteolytic subunit of CSN. The compound traps CRLs in the neddylated state, which leads to inactivation of a subset of CRLs by inducing degradation of their substrate recognition module. CSN5i-3 differentially affects the viability of tumour cell lines and suppresses growth of a human xenograft in mice. Our results provide insights into how CSN regulates CRLs and suggest that CSN5 inhibition has potential for anti-tumour therapy.

Abstract
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid involved in several physiological processes including cell migration and differentiation. S1P signaling is mediated through five G protein-coupled receptors (S1P1-S1P5). S1P1 is crucial to the exit of T-lymphocytes from the thymus and peripheral lymphoid organs through a gradient of S1P. We have previously observed that T-ALL and T-LBL blasts express S1P1. Herein we analyzed the role of S1P receptors in the migratory pattern of human T-cell neoplastic blasts. S1P-triggered cell migration was directly related to S1P1 expression. T-ALL blasts expressing low levels of S1P1 mRNA (HPB-ALL) did not migrate toward S1P, whereas those expressing higher levels of S1P1 (MOLT-4, JURKAT and CEM) did migrate. The S1P ligand induced T-ALL cells chemotaxis in concentrations up to 500 nM and induced fugetaxis in higher concentrations (1000-10000 nM) through interactions with S1P1. When S1P1 was specifically blocked by the W146 compound, S1P-induced migration at lower concentrations was reduced, whereas higher concentrations induced cell migration. Furthermore, we observed that S1P/S1P1 interactions induced ERK and AKT phosphorylation, and modulation of Rac1 activity. Responding T-ALL blasts also expressed S1P3 mRNA but blockage of this receptor did not modify migratory responses. Our results indicate that S1P is involved in the migration of T-ALL/LBL blasts, which is dependent on S1P1 expression. Moreover, S1P concentrations in the given microenvironment might induce dose-dependent chemotaxis or fugetaxis of T-ALL blasts.

Abstract
ALK is a receptor tyrosine kinase with an oncogenic role in various types of human malignancies. Despite constitutive activation of the kinase through gene alterations, such as chromosomal translocation, gene amplification or mutation, treatments with kinase inhibitors invariably lead to the development of resistance. Aiming to develop new tools for ALK targeting, we took advantage of our previous demonstration identifying ALK as a dependence receptor, implying that in the absence of ligand the kinase-inactive ALK triggers or enhances apoptosis. Here, we synthesized peptides mimicking the proapoptotic domain of ALK and investigated their biological effects on tumor cells. We found that an ALK-derived peptide of 36 amino acids (P36) was cytotoxic for ALK-positive anaplastic large-cell lymphoma and neuroblastoma cell lines. In contrast, ALK-negative tumor cells and normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells were insensitive to P36. The cytotoxic effect was due to caspase-dependent apoptosis and required N-myristoylation of the peptide. Two P36-derived shorter peptides as well as a cyclic peptide also induced apoptosis. Surface plasmon resonance and mass spectrometry analysis of P36-interacting proteins from two responsive cell lines, Cost lymphoma and SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma, uncovered partners that could involve p53-dependent signaling and pre-mRNA splicing. Furthermore, siRNA-mediated knockdown of p53 rescued these cells from P36-induced apoptosis. Finally, we observed that a treatment combining P36 with the ALK-specific inhibitor crizotinib resulted in additive cytotoxicity. Therefore, ALK-derived peptides could represent a novel targeted therapy for ALK-positive tumors.

Abstract
Anaplastic large-cell lymphomas (ALCLs) bearing the t(2;5) translocation (ALK(+)ALCLs) are frequently characterized by skin colonization and associated with a poor prognosis. Using conditional transgenic models of anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive (ALK(+)) lymphomas and human ALK(+)ALCL cell lines, in the present study, we show that high-mobility-group box-1 (HMGB-1), a proinflammatory cytokine, is released by ALK(+) cells, and demonstrate extracellular HMGB-1-stimulated secretion of the IL-8 chemokine by HaCaT keratinocytes through the involvement of MMP-9, PAR-2, and the NF-κB pathway. Furthermore, we demonstrate that, in vitro, IL-8 is able to induce the invasiveness of ALK(+) cells, which express the IL-8 receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2. In vitro and in vivo, HMGB-1 inhibition achieved by glycyrrhizin treatment led to a drastic reduction in ALK(+) cell invasiveness. The pathophysiological relevance of our observations was confirmed by demonstrating that the HMGB-1 and IL-8 receptors are expressed in ALK(+)ALCL biopsies. We have also shown that IL-8 secretion is correlated with leukemic dissemination of ALK(+) cells in a significant number of patients. The results of the present study demonstrate for the first time a relationship among the pro-inflammatory mediators HMGB-1, MMP-9, PAR-2, and IL-8. We propose that these mediators create a premetastatic niche within the skin, thereby participating in ALK(+) lymphoma epidermotropism.

Abstract
Although deregulated expression of specific microRNAs (miRNAs) has been described in solid cancers and leukemias, little evidence of miRNA deregulation has been reported in ALK-positive (ALK(+)) anaplastic large cell lymphomas (ALCL). These tumors overexpress the major antiapoptotic protein myeloid cell leukemia 1 (MCL-1), a situation that could compensate for the lack of BCL-2. We report that ALK(+) ALCL cell lines and biopsy specimens (n = 20) express a low level of miR-29a and that this down-modulation requires an active NPM-ALK kinase. Murine models (transgenic mice and mouse embryonic fibroblast [MEF] cells), which allow conditional NPM-ALK fusion protein expression, showed an increase of miR-29a expression in the absence of NPM-ALK. Concordant results were observed after the abolition of NPM-ALK kinase activity (siALK or PF-2341066) in NPM-ALK(+) ALCL cell lines. In addition, we showed that low expression of miR-29a, probably through methylation repression, plays an important regulatory role in MCL-1 overexpression that could promote tumor cell survival by inhibiting apoptosis. Enforced miR-29a expression was found to modulate apoptosis through inhibition of MCL-1 expression in ALCL cell lines and in a xenografted model, with a concomitant tumor growth reduction. Thus, synthetic miR-29a represents a potential new tool to affect tumorigenesis in these lymphomas.

Abstract
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) have recently been reported to specifically kill malignant cells of B-lymphoid origin, i.e., cells derived from Burkitt lymphoma. Accordingly, SSRIs have been proposed as lead compounds in the development of new approaches to the treatment of lymphoma/leukaemia. Here we attempted to dissect the underlying signaling pathways by comparing susceptible and resistant cell lines. However, we found that all cell lines investigated underwent apoptotic cell death when exposed to SSRI concentrations exceeding 10 microM regardless of whether the cell lines were derived from B- (e.g., Namalwa, Ramos, Daudi, RL7), T-lymphoid tumors (e.g., Molt-4, Jurkat, CCRF-CEM) or other sources. The structure-activity relationship readily distinguished the pro-apoptotic and growth inhibitory effect of SSRIs from their eponymous action (blockage of the serotonin transporter): acetylation of the SSRIs fluvoxamine and paroxetine abrogated the ability of these compounds to inhibit 5HT-uptake, but did not impair their cytotoxic action. Based on these data we conclude that (i) SSRIs inhibit growth of transformed cells, but that (ii) this effect is neither specific for malignant cells nor specific for any particular cellular subset. (iii) The pro-apoptotic effect of SSRIs (at microM concentrations) is unrelated to their principal pharmacological action, i.e., inhibition of serotonin uptake (at nM concentrations). SSRIs or improved versions thereof are therefore unlikely to represent useful lead compounds for inducing apoptosis in B-cell derived tumors: the underlying mechanism is not confined to any specific cell lineage.

Abstract
Abstract
With the use of microarray gene-expression profiling, we analyzed a homogeneous series of 32 patients with systemic anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) and 5 ALCL cell lines. Unsupervised analysis classified ALCL in 2 clusters, corresponding essentially to morphologic subgroups (ie, common type vs small cell and “mixed” variants) and clinical variables. Patients with a morphologic variant of ALCL had advanced-stage disease. This group included a significant number of patients who experienced early relapse. Supervised analysis showed that ALK+ALCL and ALK− ALCL have different gene-expression profiles, further confirming that they are different entities. Among the most significantly differentially expressed genes between ALK+ and ALK− samples, we found BCL6, PTPN12, CEBPB, and SERPINA1 genes to be overexpressed in ALK+ ALCL. This result was confirmed at the protein level for BCL-6, C/EBPβ and serpinA1 through tissue microarrays. The molecular signature of ALK− ALCL included overexpression of CCR7, CNTFR, IL22, and IL21 genes but did not provide any obvious clues to the molecular mechanism underlying this tumor subtype. Once confirmed on a larger number of patients, the results of the present study could be used for clinical and therapeutic management of patients at the time of diagnosis.

Abstract
Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a distinct subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Most of ALCLs (85%) carry a chromosomal translocation involving different partners in the 5' portion, and the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) receptor kinase domain in the 3' portion. These translocations induce the ectopic expression of X-ALK proteins, thought to be involved in lymphomagenesis, through the dysregulation of cell proliferation and apoptotic pathways. In the present study, based on several ALK+ and ALK- ALCL cell lines and biopsy specimens, we showed that serpin A1, a secretory glycoprotein, was overexpressed in ALK+ ALCL cell lines and ALK+ tumors at both the transcriptional and translational levels. The crucial role of NPM-ALK in the regulation of serpin A1 expression was further demonstrated by using both ectopic expression and downregulation, by RNA interference, of the NPM-ALK oncogene. In addition, in ALK+ tumors, serpin A1 expression appeared to be correlated with the clinical status of the patients as the serpin A1 mRNA level was higher in patients presenting with extranodal dissemination. These data, together with the pattern of expression of serpin A1 we observed in ALK+ tumors, suggest that serpin A1 has an invasion-promoting effect in ALK+ ALCL.

Abstract
Anaplastic large-cell lymphomas (ALCL) are high grade lymphomas of T or null phenotype often associated with the t(2;5) translocation leading to the expression of a chimeric protein consisting of the N-terminal portion of nucleophosmin (NPM) and the intracellular domain of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). Although ALCL are recognized as distinct clinical, biological and cytogenetic entities, heterogeneities persist in this group of tumours, which exhibit a broad spectrum of morphological features. Particularly, the common type tumour consisting in large cells contrast with the small cell variant that is sometimes associated with a leukemic phase. The ALK-negative ALCL is often associated with a poor prognosis. Here, we investigated the proteome of these subtypes of tumours using patient-derived cell lines. We compared the proteome of the cytosolic fraction of NPM-ALK-positive versus NPM-ALK-negative cells on one hand, and the proteome of common cell type versus small cell variant on the other hand. The identification of a set of proteins differentially expressed in the subtypes of ALCL points to new diagnosis/prognosis markers. This study also provides interesting information on the molecular mechanisms responsible for the different subtypes of ALCL.

Abstract
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALK+ ALCL) is characterized by constitutive activation of the Janus kinase (JAK)3/signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling pathway. SHP1, a tyrosine phosphatase that negatively regulates JAK/STAT, is frequently absent in ALK+ ALCL owing to gene methylation. To test the hypothesis that loss of SHP1 contributes to JAK3/STAT3 activation in ALK+ ALCL cells, we induced SHP1 expression using 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-AZA), an inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase, in ALK+ ALCL cell lines, and correlated with changes in the JAK3/STAT3 pathway. 5-AZA gradually restored SHP1 expression in Karpas 299 and SU-DHL-1 cells over 5 days. The initially low level of SHP1 expression did not result in significant changes to the expression or tyrosine phosphorylation of JAK3 and STAT3. However, higher levels of SHP1 seen subsequently correlated with substantial decreases in JAK3 and pJAK3, followed by pSTAT3 (but not STAT3). Importantly, the decrease in JAK3 was abrogated by MG132, a proteasome inhibitor. 5-AZA induced no significant increase in apoptosis but it sensitized ALCL cells to doxorubicin-induced apoptosis. Our findings support the concept that loss of SHP1 contributes to the constitutive activation of JAK3/STAT3 in ALK+ ALCL cells. SHP1 appears to downregulate JAK3 by two mechanisms: tyrosine dephosphorylation and increased degradation via the proteasome pathway.

Abstract
To identify proteins associated with the histological subtypes of lymphoid neoplasms, we studied the proteomes of 42 cell lines from human lymphoid neoplasms including Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL; four cell lines), B cell malignancies (19 cell lines), T cell malignancies (16 cell lines), and natural killer (NK) cell lymphoma (three cell lines). The protein spots were sequentially selected by (i) Wilcoxon or Kruskal-Wallis tests to find the spots whose intensity was significantly (p <0.05) different among the cell line groups, (ii) by statistical-learning methods to prioritize the spots according to their contribution to the classification, and (iii) by unsupervised classification methods to validate the classification robustness by the selected spots. The selected spots discriminated (i) between HL cells and other cells, (ii) between the cells from B cell malignancies, T cell malignancies, and NK cell lymphoma cells, and (iii) between HL cells and anaplastic large cell lymphoma cells. Among the 31 informative protein spots, MS identified 24 proteins corresponding to 23 spots. Previous reports did not correlate these proteins to lymphocyte differentiation, suggesting that a proteomic study would identify the novel mechanisms responsible for the histogenesis of lymphoid neoplasms. These proteins may have potential as differential diagnostic markers for lymphoid neoplasms.

Abstract
Anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a distinct biological and cytogenetic entity with a broad spectrum of morphological features (common type, small-cell variant and lymphohistiocytic variant). Few cell lines of ALCL are available and they all originate from primary tumors demonstrating the common type morphology (ie large-sized lymphoma cells). We established a new ALCL cell line (COST) from the peripheral blood of a patient with a small-cell variant of ALCL, at diagnosis. Cells growing in vitro and in SCID mice consisted of two populations, that is, small- and large-sized cells as seen in the patient's tumor. Both large and small malignant cells were positive for CD43/MT1 T-cell associated antigen, perforin, granzyme B and TIA-1, but negative for CD2, CD3, CD5, CD7, CD4 and CD8 antigens. Standard cytogenetic studies as well as multiplex FISH confirmed the presence of the canonical t(2;5)(p23;q35) translocation, but also revealed additional numerical and structural abnormalities. The COST cell line is the first ALCL small-cell variant cell line, and thus provides a potentially useful tool for further functional and molecular studies that should improve our understanding of the small-cell variant of ALCL, which is more frequently complicated by a leukemic phase.

Abstract
Constitutive overexpression of nucleophosmin-anaplastic lymphoma kinase (NPM-ALK) is a key oncogenic event in anaplastic large-cell lymphomas with the characteristic chromosomal aberration t(2;5)(p23;q35). Proteins that interact with ALK tyrosine kinase play important roles in mediating downstream cellular signals, and are potential targets for novel therapies. Using a functional proteomic approach, we determined the identity of proteins that interact with the ALK tyrosine kinase by co-immunoprecipitation with anti-ALK antibody, followed by electrospray ionization and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). A total of 46 proteins were identified as unique to the ALK immunocomplex using monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies, while 11 proteins were identified in the NPM immunocomplex. Previously reported proteins in the ALK signal pathway were identified including PI3-K, Jak2, Jak3, Stat3, Grb2, IRS, and PLCgamma1. More importantly, many proteins previously not recognized to be associated with NPM-ALK, but with potential NPM-ALK interacting protein domains, were identified. These include adaptor molecules (SOCS, Rho-GTPase activating protein, RAB35), kinases (MEK kinase 1 and 4, PKC, MLCK, cyclin G-associated kinase, EphA1, JNK kinase, MAP kinase 1), phosphatases (meprin, PTPK, protein phosphatase 2 subunit), and heat shock proteins (Hsp60 precursor). Proteins identified by MS were confirmed by Western blotting and reciprocal immunoprecipitation. This study demonstrates the utility of antibody immunoprecipitation and subsequent peptide identification by tandem mass spectrometry for the elucidation of ALK-binding proteins, and its potential signal transduction pathways.

Abstract
Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), normally activated by Janus kinase (JAK) in response to cytokine stimulation, has been shown to have oncogenic potential. In addition to JAK, recent data suggest that STAT3 can also be activated by other proteins such as the aberrant fusion protein, NPM-ALK, which is expressed in a subset of systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). In this study, we investigated the possible role of JAK in activating STAT3 in ALCL using two ALK-positive ALCL cell lines, Karpas 299 and SU-DHL-1. At the steady state, JAK3 showed detectable tyrosine phosphorylation by immunoprecipitation. Treatment with AG490, a JAK inhibitor, decreased but did not completely abrogate tyrosine phosphorylation of JAK3 and STAT3 in a concentration-dependent manner. Similar results were obtained using two other inhibitors of JAK3, WHI-P131 and WHI-P154. These biochemical changes were associated with apoptosis in both cell lines that was coupled with activation of caspase 3 and decreased bcl-xL and bcl-2. Cell cycle analysis revealed a decrease in the S phase, which may be attributed to cyclin D3 downregulation and p21(waf1) upregulation. Importantly, the tyrosine kinase activity of NPM-ALK, as assessed by an in vitro assay, decreased with increasing concentrations of AG490. Our findings highlight the importance of JAK3 in activating STAT3 in ALCL, and that NPM-ALK-mediated activation of STAT3 is influenced by the functional status of JAK3.

Abstract
Anaplastic large cell lymphomas (ALCL) in children represent a heterogeneous group of neoplasms with regard to the cell lineages involved. The chromosomal 5q35 breakpoint (bp) and the expression of the NPM/ALK fusion gene are the most remarkable molecular cytogenetic features of these malignancies. To identify new locations of ALCL-related oncogenes, comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was applied to three ALCL cell lines (SU-DHL-1, Karpas 299, and DEL) exhibiting the 5q35 bp and expressing the NPM/ALK transcript. The CGH profiles were compared with those obtained with DNA from U937, HL-60 cells, and altered lymph nodes from two children with ALCL. Significant DNA copy number gains and/or losses were observed on several chromosomes in all ALCL cell lines. Distinct amplicons were detected on 1q21 approximately q44 (DEL), 7q12 (SU-DHL-1), and 1q12 approximately q22 (Karpas 299) regions. The NPM/ALK fusion gene was confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis in more than 80% of interphase nuclei and metaphase spreads. Enhanced expression of TGF-beta2 and c-MET candidate genes located at the amplified regions was revealed in DEL and SU-DHL1 cell lines by Northern blot analysis. These findings delineate chromosomal imbalances in ALCL-derived cell lines in parallel with high level of amplification covering target DNA sequences, which could play a role in ALCL pathogenesis.

Abstract
The expression profiles of eight cell lines derived from T-cell malignancies were compared to CD4-positive T-cells using cDNA microarray technology. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of 4364 genes demonstrated substantial heterogeneity resulting in four distinct groups. While no genes were found to be uniformly up- or down-regulated across all cell lines, we observed 111 over-expressed genes (greater than two-fold) and 1118 down-regulated genes (greater than two-fold) in the lymphomas as a group when compared to CD4-positive T-cells. These included genes involved in cytokine signaling, cell adhesion, cytoskeletal elements, nuclear transcription factors, and known oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. Quantitative fluorescent reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis demonstrated 70% concordance with the microarray results. While freshly isolated malignant cells may differ in their individual expression patterns relative to established cell lines from the same diagnoses, we feel that the variety of different lymphocytic cell lines that we examined provides a representative picture of the molecular pathogenesis of T-cell malignancies.

Abstract
L82, a novel anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) cell line was established from the pleural effusion of a 24-year-old patient with recurrent ALCL. L82 cells showed the typical morphologic features of ALCL cells with irregular, often indented, nuclear profiles, prominent nucleoli, and abundant cytoplasm. The immunoprofile of L82 corresponds to that seen typically in primary ALCL cells, with positivity for CD30, EMA, CD3, CD4, CD25, CD71, TIA1, and granzyme B; the cells were negative for EBV-related antigens. Cytogenetic analysis showed a complex, near triploid karyotype with 72-77 chromosomes, including the ALCL specific translocation t(2;5)(p23;q35). Chromosomal analysis revealed a number of secondary structural alterations including amplification of 7q21-31, 1q, and 6p, and gain of chromosomal material in 8q (affecting the c-myc gene). The rearrangement of the T-cell receptor-gamma locus shows that L82 is clonally derived from T-lineage lymphoid cells. mRNAs for interleukin 7 (IL-7), IL-8, IL-9, IL-10, TNF-beta, and for the IL-7 and IL-9 receptor were found. These data show that the T-helper cell (Th)1/Th2 balance was polarized to Th2. L82 were inoculated intraperitoneally into 4 week-old SCID mice and produced a disseminated tumor within 4-6 weeks. Morphological, immunohistochemical, and molecular genetic investigation confirmed that the xenograft and the original ALCL tumor were identical. SCID mice xenografted with the human ALCL cell line, L82, provide a useful model system for the investigation of the biology of ALCL and of new therapeutic approaches, such as specific immunotherapy.

Abstract
Hodgkin's disease (HD) is a lymphoproliferative disease of predominantly B-cell origin. However, the reasons for the incomplete development of the B-cell phenotype and lack of immunoglobulin expression in classical HD (cHD) have not been fully explained. We examined the expression of PU.1 in HD, an Ets-family transcription factor, which regulates the expression of immunoglobulin and other genes that are important for B-cell development. Immunohistochemistry for PU.1 was performed on 35 cases of cHD and 15 cases of lymphocyte predominance HD as well as 67 non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL). Expression of PU.1 was studied by Western blotting in four cHD-derived cell lines and in five NHL cell lines. We also studied the expression of two additional B-cell transcription factors, B-cell-specific activator protein and Oct-2. Our results show a striking lack of PU.1 expression by neoplastic cells in cHD but not in lymphocyte predominance HD. Our study also confirmed that B-cell-specific activator protein but not Oct-2 is not expressed by cHD. Western blotting showed no PU.1 protein expression in the cHD-derived cell lines, with the exception of one cell line of putative monocyte/histiocyte origin. The lack of PU.1 protein expression in cHD likely contributes to the lack of immunoglobulin expression and incomplete B-cell phenotype characteristic of the Reed-Sternberg cells in cHD.

Abstract
Continuous human leukemia-lymphoma cell lines have become indispensable tools in hematological research since the establishment of the first human lymphoma cell line Raji in 1963. We summarize here historical landmarks in the establishment of unique leukemia-lymphoma-derived cell lines from the various cell lineages; their special importance in hematopoietic research is emphasized. The first cell lines were derived from African Burkitt lymphomas and were found to integrate the Epstein-Barr virus in their genome leading to the discovery and isolation of this virus. However, it was later recognized that not every cell line derived from a patient with leukemia-lymphoma represents a malignant cell line as residual normal B-lymphocytes can also be immortalized by EBV infection. During the following 20-30 years many other types of hematopoietic cell lines, commonly derived from hematopoietic neoplasms, were established. These panels of cell lines now span almost the whole spectrum of hematopoietic cell lineages (except for dendritric cells) and the various distinct stages of differentiation along the respective cell axes. From early on, cell lines became important tools for basic and clinical hematological research, initially mainly in the field of immunology, but later expanding to other areas also. It became apparent that leukemia-lymphoma cell lines are of monoclonal origin, are arrested at a discrete maturational stage during differentiation in each lineage, and show sustained and growth factor-independent or -dependent unlimited proliferation. Categorization of cell lines might best be based on the physiological stages of hematopoietic differentiation in the various cell lineages. For an adequate classification, detailed characterizations of both the cell lines and the primary cells from which the cell lines originated are absolutely mandatory. In summary, the availability of large numbers of continuous leukemia-lymphoma cell lines has greatly facilitated clinical and immunobiological studies of normal and malignant hematopoiesis. Human leukemia-lymphoma cell lines will continue to provide exquisite model systems for many biomedical disciplines.

Abstract
Although myelomonoblastic leukemia is thought to originate from a malignant transformation of the stem cell of the mononuclear phagocyte system, malignant histiocytosis (MH) is classically assumed to represent a malignant change of the terminal and fixed elements of this system. Indeed, MH is characterized by the proliferation of large, clear, pleomorphic, "histiocytic-like" HLADR and CD30+ cells resulting in a nodal and extranodal disseminated neoplasm affecting preferentially and severely children and young adults. Although there is broad agreement on the clinicopathologic presentation of this condition, there is currently quite a controversy over the T-lymphoid or histiocytic origin of the proliferative cells that results in a nosologic discussion between the anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) advocates and the MH supporters. This article has dealt mainly with this nosologic discussion and with the contributions provided by the investigations performed on MH permanent cell lines. These in vitro studies have demonstrated that the proliferation is characterized by a unique chromosomal abnormality, the 5q35bp usually associated with a t(2;5) translocation generating a fusion gene NPM/ALK and the subsequent translation of p80 protein. Although it is known that no single chromosomal abnormality is strictly restricted to a cell lineage, this 5q35bp and associated translocations seem today to represent the hallmark for this condition. In view of these chromosomal aberrations, the CD30+ ALCLs represent a heterogeneous group because 15% to 50% express the NPM/ALK fusion gene. In addition, these in vitro investigations have shown that 5q35bp proliferative cells are glass-adherent, can develop an immunodependent phagocytosis, and are able to reduce NBT and produce TNF-alpha. More significantly, they express constitutively the c-fms (the receptor of the macrophage growth factor) and, under TPA stimulation, are able to modulate the expression of this receptor and its ligand, as well as TNF-alpha and IL-1. None of these cell lines express CD3, but several express CD68 and CD71. In contrast, genomic investigations have shown the underlying existence of monoallelic and even biallelic gene rearrangements for TCR beta and IgJH. In view of these discrepancies between the genomic and phenotypic features of these cells, the histogenetic debate should remain open but must take into account these new chromosomal and molecular data.

Abstract
Large amounts of homogeneous cells are not always available for in vitro studies of inflammatory skin disorders. Here we demonstrate that a novel cell line, termed YAA, has been established from peripheral blood mononuclear cells, which were separated by the Ficoll method, of a patient with atopic dermatitis. YAA cells were grown in suspension culture. The cytochemical staining showed a positive reaction for alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase, which was completely inhibited by sodium fluoride, but a negative result for periodic acid-Schiff, peroxidase and alkaline phosphatase. A large population of YAA cells exhibited phenotype of CD33 and CD56 but neither of CD2 nor CD3. The phorbol ester-stimulated YAA cells produced a considerable amount of tumor necrosis factor-alpha. These findings suggest that YAA might be a monocytoid line with an additional phenotype specific for natural killer cells.

Abstract
"Farage" is a cell line derived from a patient who had a diffuse and mixed type malignant lymphoma. In a previous study it was shown that Farage cells expressed B-cell markers, but not membrane IgM. Karyotypic analysis showed that in contrast to most follicular cell lymphomas, Farage did not have the 14;18 chromosomal translocation. In the present work Farage was further characterized by Southern and Northern blot analyses. Two rearranged heavy chain alleles and one rearranged kappa chain gene were detected. The cells expressed both mu and kappa mRNA, even though at a 3-7 fold lower level than that found in the control Daudi and DG-75 Burkitt lymphomas. Farage cells did not express the terminal deoxynucleotydyl transferase gene (TdT), nor the recombination activating genes RAG-1 and RAG-2, known as markers of the pre-B cell stage. These results show that Farage represents a mature B-cell rather than a pre-B cell. Despite the presence of C kappa and C mu RNAs, no Ig polypeptide chains were produced by Farage as judged by immunoblotting and biosynthesis labeling assays. Ig mRNAs were detected on the polysomal fraction, but at a lower level relative to Daudi cells. Our combined results suggest that in Farage cells translation of Ig mRNA is not fully blocked at the stage of translation initiation. Farage cells may express "germline" or mutated variants of Ig mRNAs. The unusual phenotype of Farage may reflect a normal as yet unknown stage of B-cell differentiation, or it may be due to an aberrant expression developed after malignant transformation.

Abstract
Human monocyte/macrophage lineages have unique phagocytic and immune-regulatory functions. We established a promonocytic cell line from the peripheral blood of a patient with psoriasis vulgaris. The newly established cells, termed YAP cells, grew in a suspension culture. In Wright-Giemsa-stained preparations, YAP cells were round or polygonal in shape. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the cells had clear nuclei with well-defined nucleoli. There were frequent mitochondria, a relatively abundant endoplasmic reticulum profile, free ribosomes and an occasional Golgi apparatus. Cytochemical studies showed a positive reaction for alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase, which was completely inhibited by sodium fluoride, a diffuse positive reaction for periodic acid-Schiff, and a negative result for alkaline phosphatase and peroxidase. A large population of YAP cells reacted with the CD4, CD11b, CD25 and CD33 surface markers, but not with CD2, CD3, CD8 or CD19. We also found that YAP cells produced considerable amounts of TNF alpha, which was detected in the culture supernatant when the cells were treated with 1 ng/ml 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). Chromosome analyses showed that YAP cells contained a variety of marker chromosomes. It should be stressed that YAP cells were derived from a patient with a non-neoplastic disorder, whereas most monocytic cell lines previously reported are of malignant origin. This newly established cell line might be valuable for studying the pathogenesis of psoriasis, especially the role of monocytes/macrophages in the aetiology of the disease.

Abstract
A new cell line DEL, established in vitro, was isolated from a pleural effusion of a boy who died of malignant histiocytosis. Its principal characteristics are: strong positivity with monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to CD25, CD30, CD45R, KiM7, EMA, HLA Cl I and II; constant presence of acid phosphatase, ANAE, alpha-anti-trypsin, alpha-anti-chymotrypsin and NBT reductase activity; rearrangement of the immunoglobulin heavy-chain gene (JH) and a germ-line configuration of the T-chain gene; and finally a translocation between chromosomes 5-6 with a breakpoint in 5q35. The DEL cell line is appropriate for studying the role of the 5q localized c-fms oncogene and of the genes of the mononuclear phagocyte growth factor (CSFI) and of their receptors in the dynamics and etiology of malignant hemopathies associated with a 5q35 breakpoint.

Abstract
To investigate the possible implications of heterogeneity among the non-Hodgkin's lymphomas for bone marrow purging using complement-fixing monoclonal antibodies to lymphoma-associated antigens, a panel of large cell lymphoma cell lines of diverse phenotypes was treated with monoclonal antibodies DLC-48 and LN-1. An association was demonstrated between the percentage of suppression of colony formation by the cell line and both the percentage of cells staining with the antibody and the intensity of its binding. Flow cytometric analysis of cells surviving treatment with antibody and complement demonstrated that the population that escaped lysis showed weak immunofluorescent staining. Similarly, 40% of the clones derived from cells surviving treatment with antibody and complement stained weakly compared with the parent cell line. For a given fluorescence intensity, cells differed in their susceptibility to treatment. Some cells with moderate to strong staining survived incubation with antibody and complement. In five cases, treatment of bone marrow contaminated with malignant lymphoma cells resulted in complete eradication of even cells with weak staining. In two cases, a population of cells that stained dimly survived treatment with either antibody. DNA-content analysis showed that the cell cycle distribution of cells surviving treatment with DLC-48 or LN-1 and complement was similar to that of cells treated with control antibody 46-1G7 and complement. Phenotypic heterogeneity may hinder efforts to purge malignant lymphoma cells from human bone marrow with complement-fixing monoclonal antibody reagents. Relative resistance to complement-mediated lysis may underlie differences in the susceptibility of cells to treatment and also limit the effectiveness of this technique.

Abstract
A combination of large-cell lymphoma cell lines was used as immunogen in the production of DLC-48, a mouse monoclonal antibody (MAb) to a B-cell-associated antigen. This reagent identifies a protein found on a majority of peripheral blood B-cells, B-cell derived tumor cell lines, and lymphoma biopsy specimens. In reactive lymph-node sections, DLC-48 stains both germinal center and mantle zone B-lymphocytes when the immunoperoxidase technique is used. DLC-48 is an IgM, and is highly cytotoxic in the presence of human serum complement. The conditions for complement-mediated cytotoxicity were first optimized by utilizing the chromium-release assay with 2 large-cell lymphoma cell lines, and were then applied to the treatment of the cell lines prior to cloning in agar. A single treatment with antibody and human serum eliminated 4 orders of magnitude of target cells. The cytolytic activity of this antibody was not inhibited by the presence of a 20-fold excess of normal human bone marrow. Treatment with antibody and autologous serum did not affect the growth of human hematopoietic progenitor cells (CFU-GEMM and CFU-GM). These results suggest that DLC-48, either alone or in combination with other MAb reagents, should be effective in eliminating malignant cells of B-lineage from human bone marrow for purposes of autologous bone-marrow transplantation.

Abstract
Primary cultures of cells derived from 13 patients with acute myelomonocytic leukemia (AMML) were studied with particular emphasis on in vitro proliferation, cell differentiation and the mode for establishment of cell lines. Using irradiated human macrophage monolayers to assist cell growth, we obtained four new cell lines of myelomonocytic origin. All the cell lines were characterized for cytochemical markers and response to phorbol esters (TPA), a differentiation inducing agent. In the absence of any inducing agent, spontaneous differentiation of blast cells into mature macrophages-like cells occurred in 8 out of the 13 primary cultures. Thus, maturation induction by agents such as TPA is not always required in order to obtain leukemic cell differentiation in vitro. The regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation by cellular interactions and by extrinsic soluble products is discussed in detail, in the light of these findings.

Abstract
The t(14;18)(q32;21) chromosomal translocation characteristic of follicular lymphomas is the most common cytogenetic abnormality known to be associated with any specific type of hematolymphoid malignancy. A fragment of DNA containing the crossover point between chromosomes 14 and 18 was cloned from the tumor cells of a patient with a follicular lymphoma carrying this translocation. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the breakpoint DNA revealed that the break in chromosome 14 occurred in joining region 4(J4) of the nonfunctional immunoglobulin heavy chain allele. This finding and other structural similarities of the breakpoint with the functional diversity region-joining region (D-J) joint in this lymphoma suggest that D-J recombination enzymes played a role in the mechanism of the t(14;18) translocation. Hybridization analysis of DNA from 40 follicular lymphomas showed that the majority of t(14;18) translocations occur on chromosome 18 DNA within 4.2 kilobases of the cloned breakpoint. A DNA probe from this breakpoint-cluster region detects transcription products in the tumor cells from which it was cloned and in a B-lymphoma cell line containing a t(14;18) translocation.

Abstract
Three new cell lines have been established from patients with malignant lymphoma utilizing a human diploid feeder layer, pooled human serum, and the chemical supplements L-cysteine, iron-saturated transferrin, and bathocuproine disulfonate, a copper chelator. After a short period of growth, the 3 cell lines were successfully weaned from the feeder layers but continued to require human serum and the chemical supplements for up to 9 months of culture. The cell lines are currently grown in RPM1-1640 medium and fetal calf serum without further supplementation. The NU-DHL-1 cell line was established from the involved lymph node of a 73-year-old White male with diffuse large-cell lymphoma. The cell line expresses cytoplasmic IgM/lambda heavy and light chains, is Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-negative, and is positive for several B-cell markers, indicating that it is derived from a mature-B-cell neoplasm. The NU-DUL-1 cell line was established from the cerebrospinal fluid of a 42-year-old White male with undifferentiated lymphoma, non-Burkitt's type, who initially presented with a mediastinal mass and had subsequent involvement of the central nervous system. The cell line is EBV-negative, but surprisingly it is positive for early B-cell markers. The NU-AmB-1 cell line was established from the abdominal mass of a 12-year-old Hispanic male with undifferentiated lymphoma, Burkitt's type. The cell line is EBV-positive and expresses early B-cell markers. All 3 cell lines are aneuploid or pseudodiploid and contain chromosome 14q+ abnormalities including a newly described complex translocation t(?;1;8;14) in the NU-AmB-1 cell line. The establishment of these cell lines was made possible by refinements in the cell culture of the human malignant lymphomas. The availability of well-characterized lymphoma cell lines with specific chromosomal translocations will aid molecular and cellular studies designed to identify the biological significance of genomic rearrangements.

Abstract
Cell lines were established from 15 patients with diffuse histiocytic lymphoma (DHL) of the intermediate grade, diffuse large cell (class G), and high-grade, large cell immunoblastic (class H) types. Immunologic studies indicated that 11 of the 15 DHL cell lines were B cell in origin, 2 were histiocytic, and 2 were null cell. Cytogenetic studies revealed 1 hypodiploid, 11 hyperdiploid, and 3 near-tetraploid cell lines. Chromosome #7 was trisomic in 3 lines, chromosomes #12 in 4 lines, and chromosome #13 in 3 lines. Chromosome #2 was monosomic in 3 lines, chromosome #8 was monosomic in 5 lines, chromosome #14 in 4 lines, and chromosome #22 in 6 cell lines. This is of special interest, as chromosomes #2, #8, #14, and #22 are clearly concerned with rearrangements in Burkitt's lymphoma and immunoglobulin expression. The most common rearrangement in the DHL cell lines involved chromosome #14 at band 14q32. However, in contrast to Burkitt's lymphoma, the pattern of translocation in DHL is between chromosome #14 and usually chromosome #11 or chromosome #18. The 14;18 translocation is not restricted to patients with low-grade follicular, small cleaved cell lymphomas, as has been reported. The 14q+ chromosome is characteristic of lymphoid malignancies in general. It is due, invariably, to a translocation with the breakpoint in band 14q32, which is the locus of the immunoglobulin heavy chain genes. We propose that in each translocation, for example, chromosomes #11 or #18, an oncogene may be transposed onto chromosome #14, and that each 14q+ translocation in DHL represents an event that transposes an oncogene from another chromosome to chromosome #14.

Abstract
A new Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen (EBNA) negative cell line SKW 4 has been established in vitro from a patient with diffuse histiocytic lymphoma. The SKW 4 seems to be an authentic human tumour cell line as evidenced by its EBV negativity, monoclonality and aneuploidy tested during early in vitro passage. The cell line expresses surface mu and kappa-chains, HLA-DR antigen, C3 and Fc receptors and B-cell lineage antigens. The karyotypic analyses demonstrated many numerical and structural aberrations. No Burkitt lymphoma associated translocations (t8;14, t2;8, t;22) were detected, but most of the markers found are those commonly associated with various types of human cancer. The SKW 4 thus represents the most common type of 'histiocytic lymphoma', that with a B-lymphoid cell phenotype, but is unique among HL derived lymphoma lines in its strong expression of a Helix pomatia A agglutinin binding surface glycoprotein of an apparent molecular weight of 75 000 daltons.

Abstract
The radiation sensitivity of five human lymphoma cell lines has been investigated. All cell lines were originated from tumours clinically classified as histiocytic lymphomas. Using biochemical and immunologic techniques it was found that only one of them was a true histiocytic lymphoma. This cell line had an appreciable shoulder on the survival curve and capacity to repair sublethal damage. The survival curves of the other cell lines had no shoulders and the cells had nearly no capacity to repair sublethal damage. Taken together with previously published experimental and clinical observations the results indicate that tumours which by conventional diagnostic techniques are classified as histiocytic lymphomas are very heterogeneous in radiation sensitivity. It is possible that tumours of true histiocytic origin are more resistant to radiation than tumours of lymphocytic origin.

Abstract
Intraspecific human-human cell hybrids provide a stable model system with which to investigate the genetic control of transformed and tumorigenic phenotypes. Using this system it has been shown that these phenotypes are under separate genetic control. Furthermore, the tumorigenic phenotype can be complemented by fusion of different tumorigenic cells, resulting in nontumorigenic hybrids. This system also provides information on the control of differentiated function. Molecular cytogenetic techniques should reveal the nature of the chromosomal control of neoplastic transformation.

Abstract
Antiserum against the fibrogenic factor from the culture medium of silica-treated rat macrophages was produced in rabbits. In dilution 1: 10,000 the antiserum cancelled the stimulating effect of the culture medium of rat macrophages on the 3H-proline incorporation into granulation-tissue fibroblasts. The rabbit antiserum had variable effects on the stimulation by the media of silica-treated human monocytes, but no effect on the media of cultured human SU-DHL-2-cells.

Abstract
By means of the multiple marker analysis, a total of 55 human leukemia-lymphoma cell lines which included 15 T-cell, 30 B-cell, four myelomonocytic-cell, and six non-T, non-B cell lines was characterized for their marker profiles. The multiple markers used included a number of cell surface markers as detected by either rosette or immunofluorescence tests, enzyme assays, cytogenetic analysis, and certain functional assay. Based on the criteria previously defined it was found that all the cell lines were proved to represent original leukemia-lymphoma of ALL, AML, CLL, CML in blastic phase or variety of lymphomas. The monoclonality, a "frozen" state at a specific state of differentiation-maturation, and cytogenetic marker in each leukemia-lymphoma cell line were remarkable common properties and were stable for years of cultivation. Similar, if not identical, general characteristics were observed in the study on 344 cases of uncultured fresh leukemia-lymphomas by the multiple marker analysis. While no single marker specific to any type of tumor was found, the study offers not only a basis for better understanding of the biology of leukemia-lymphoma but also an insight into normal hematopoietic cell differentiation in man.

Abstract
The hospital records of 895 patients presenting to this centre with a diagnosis of Hodgkin's or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma have been reviewed. In the records of 26 patients there was evidence for or against the occurrence of abscopal regression with radiotherapy. Attention is drawn to inevitable inaccuracy in a retrospective study of this type. Evidence of abscopal regression was seen in the records of 10 patients, four with Hodgkin's and six with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. It appears to be associated with a more favourable prognosis in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. It is suggested that this phenomenon is elicitable in more patients than is commonly recognised, and that together with response to low dose total body irradiation, could be explained by radiation damage to normal lymphocytes.

Abstract
Two in vitro cell lines (L428, L439) were established from pleural effusions of two patients with Hodgkin's disease. The histological diagnosis was ascertained in both cases by two independent pathologists. The neoplastic nature of the culture cells is indicated by the demonstration of several structural and numerical chromosome abnormalities associated with a monoclonal pattern of marker chromosomes. Heterotransplantation in nude mice was achieved by intracranial inoculation and by subcutaneous transplantation of cultured cells embedded in a plasma clot. EBV-specific antigens (EBNA, VCA) were not detectable in either cell line. Ia-like antigens, receptors for T cells, acid phosphatase and acid esterase were shown to be present in the cultured cells. The L428 and L439 cell line lacked surface- or cytoplasmic Ig, HTLA, receptors for C3b, C3d, IgG-Fc, mouse E or sheep E, and were devoid of lysozyme, peroxidase and chloracetate esterase. These features do not correspond to those of B cells, T cells, myeloid cells, monocytes or macrophages; the morphology and the marker pattern of the culture cells, however, is identical with that of freshly obtained Hodgkin (H)- and Sternberg-Reed (SR)- cells, except for the lack of Clg in the in vitro cells, which is explained by the culture conditions. These findings suggest that the L428 and L439 cell lines are indeed derived from H- and SR-cells and offer the possibility of gaining new information upon the nature of Hodgkin's disease.

Abstract
A method has been described for the long-term culture of human bone marrow cells in liquid medium. Hematopoiesis, as measured by the production of granulocytic-macrophage progenitor cells (CFUc), continued for at least 20 weeks and was dependent upon the presence of a marrow-derived adherent layer of cells. As in the case of murine marrow liquid cultures, the adherent layer consisted of mononuclear phagocytic cells, endothelial cells, and lipid-laden adipocytes, the latter being essential for long-term hematopoiesis. Optimal growth conditions included McCoy's medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum, horse serum, and hydrocortisone and incubation at 33 degrees C. Horse serum in conjunction with hydrocortisone appeared essential for the growth of adipocytes.

Abstract
Human monocytes and ascites macrophages from cirrhotic patients were isolated in Percoll-gradient and cultured with and without silica. Similar experiments were carried out also with cultured malignant human histiocytes and transformed mouse macrophages. The fibrogenic activity of the culture media was tested by measuring the incorporation of [3H]proline and [3H]thymidine into cultured rat granuloma and human synovial cells. Media from silica-treated monocytes, ascites macrophages and certain histiocyte and mouse macrophage lines caused an increase in the incorporation of both [3H]proline and [3H]thymidine into collagen and DNA, respectively, in both cell systems. Alkaline RNase activities were decreased markedly in the media from silica-treated ascites macrophages but not in the media of the monocytes or histiocytes.
