Flow cytometric assessment of T-cell chronic lymphoproliferative disorders.
Flow cytometry is frequently used in the evaluation of potential T-cell lineage lymphoproliferative disorders. Although flow cytometry is a useful tool, interpretation of the results can be challenging, because T-cells lack an easily analyzed structural element that can provide a surrogate marker of clonality such as immunoglobulin light chains on B-cells. Thus, routine T-cell phenotyping assay...
متن کاملPractical value of genotypic analysis for diagnosing lymphoproliferative disorders.
The value of DNA hybridisation (using immunoglobulin and T cell receptor gene probes) was assessed during the diagnosis of problematical lymphoid tissue biopsy specimens. In 14 of 18 specimens (78%), which contained a malignant lymphoproliferation of uncertain aetiology, this technique permitted the demonstration of a monoclonal proliferation of B cells (nine cases) or T cells (five cases). In ...
متن کاملMolecular Testing of Lymphoproliferative Disorders: Current Status and Perspectives
Molecular pathologic testing plays an important role for the diagnosis, prognostication and decision of treatment strategy in lymphoproliferative disease. Here, we briefly review the molecular tests currently used for lymphoproliferative disease and those which will be implicated in clinical practice in the near future. Specifically, this guideline addresses the clonality test for B- and T-cell...
متن کاملExpression of adhesion molecules in chronic B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Abnormalities in the expression of cell adhesion molecules (CAM) are thought to influence the patterns of intranodal growth and hematogeneous spread of malignant cells in chronic lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD). Therefore, the characterization of CAM phenotypic profiles of the neoplastic clones in LPD may help to identify distinct subtypes with prognostic implicatio...
متن کاملClassification of B-cell chronic lymphoproliferative disorders (CLD)
Note: A classification of chronic (mature) B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders based on reproducible morphologic and immunologic criteria was proposed by the FAB group in 1989. Ever since a number of cytogenetic studies disclosed a remarkable degree of heterogeneity within each disease category. Herein, the main cytogenetic entities of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and related disorders, B-cell...
