Detection of immunoglobulin gene rearrangement in B-cell malignancies.
Rearrangement of the immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) gene has been used as a marker of lineage and clonality in the diagnosis of B lymphoproliferative disorders. A number of PCR-based techniques have been developed to overcome the disadvantages of Southern blotting, the standard technique in detecting IgH gene rearrangement. Using an established seminested PCR technique with consensus primers ...
متن کاملImmunoglobulin gene rearrangements in normal mouse B cells.
We have analyzed the structure of rearranged mu heavy-chain genes obtained from the genomic DNA of normal BALB/c mouse spleen cells expressing surface immunoglobulin M. Examples were found of two types of nonproductive rearrangements, which may be responsible for allelic exclusion in normal B cells. In one of these rearrangements, a germ line D gene segment has joined to the JH4 gene segment bu...
متن کاملImmunoglobulin and T-cell receptor gene rearrangements in Hodgkin's disease.
We have examined tumor tissue DNA obtained from 32 cases of Hodgkin's disease of the following subtypes: lymphocyte predominance, six; nodular sclerosing, eight; mixed cellularity, 14; lymphocyte depleted, 4; using immunoglobulin and T-cell receptor beta and gamma gene probes. Immunoglobulin heavy chain rearrangements were detected in five patients; in three of them only a minor clonal cell pop...

متن کاملInhibition of IL-13 by Antisense Oligonucleotide Changes Immunoglobulin Isotype Profile in Cultured B-Lymphocytes
The link between IL-13 and bronchial hyper-responsiveness has brought this cytokine as a potential therapeutic target for asthma and allergic diseases. At the present study, we address the role of B cell derived IL-13 in the IgE and other immunoglobulin development. Antisense oligo for human IL-13 m-RNA was used to study IgE down regulation. Human B-lymphocytes were purified by positive selecti...
