The expression of the myeloid markers CD13, CD33, and CD15 in two hundred and eighty-three cases of de novo childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is examined. The expression of at least one marker is a frequent event which is noted in 64% and 74% of B- and T-lineage ALL cases, respectively. Certain patterns of myeloid antigen expression can be recognized including: no expression of CD13, CD33, and CD15 in mature B-ALL, significantly higher levels of CD13 and CD33 and significantly lower levels of CD15 in TEL-AML1-positive B cell precursor ALL, no expression of CD13 and CD33 in E2A-PBX1-positive B cell precursor ALL cases and common T-ALL (double positive for CD4 and CD8), and no expression of CD13 in MLL-AF4-positive B cell precursor ALL cases. Although the numbers in some ALL subtypes are small, these patterns are consistent with nonrandom expression of myeloid markers in de novo childhood ALL.
检测了283例儿童初发急性淋巴细胞白血病(ALL)中髓系标志物CD13、CD33和CD15的表达情况。至少一种标志物的表达很常见,在B系和T系ALL病例中分别有64%和74%出现这种情况。可以识别出某些髓系抗原表达模式,包括:成熟B-ALL中CD13、CD33和CD15均无表达;TEL-AML1阳性B细胞前体ALL中CD13和CD33水平显著升高,CD15水平显著降低;E2A-PBX1阳性B细胞前体ALL病例和常见T-ALL(CD4和CD8双阳性)中CD13和CD33无表达;MLL-AF4阳性B细胞前体ALL病例中CD13无表达。尽管某些ALL亚型的病例数较少,但这些模式与儿童初发ALL中髓系标志物的非随机表达一致。
