Selective gamma-chain T-cell receptor gene rearrangements in a patient with Omenn's syndrome: absence of V-II subgroup (V gamma 9) transcripts.
Only gamma-chain T-cell receptor transcripts utilizing V-1 subgroup gene segments were found in peripheral blood lymphocytes from a patient with Omenn's syndrome. gamma-Chain T-cell receptor transcripts utilizing the V gamma 9 (V-II subgroup) gene segment were absent in peripheral blood lymphocytes from this patient. V gamma 9 J gamma 1.2 C gamma 1 rearrangements are those primarily found in pe...
متن کاملHuman fetal liver gamma/delta T cells predominantly use unusual rearrangements of the T cell receptor delta and gamma loci expressed on both CD4+CD8- and CD4-CD8- gamma/delta T cells
Substantial numbers of both alpha/beta and gamma/delta T cells are present in human fetal liver, which suggests a role of the fetal liver in T cell development. The diversity of fetal liver T cell receptor (TCR) gamma and delta chain rearrangements was examined among both CD4+CD8- and CD4-CD8- gamma/delta T cell clones. In addition, TCR delta chain transcripts from three fetal livers were seque...
متن کاملDiversity of T-cell receptor Gene Rearrangements in South Indian Patients with Common Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Background: Precursor B-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (precursor B-ALL) oc-curs due to the uncontrolled proliferation of B-lymphoid precursors arrested at a par-ticular stage of B-cell development. Precursor-B-ALL is classified mainly into pro-B-ALL, common-ALL and pre-B-ALL. The Common Acute Lymphoblastic Antigen CD10 is the marker for common-ALL. Objective: This study was aimed to examine the ...
متن کاملCross-lineage gene rearrangements in human leukemic B-precursor cells occur frequently with V-DJ rearrangements of IgH genes.
Gene configurations of immunoglobulin (Ig), T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) beta chain, and T-cell rearranging gene gamma (TRG gamma) were studied in human B-precursor lymphoblastic leukemic cells. These cells were phenotypically classified into three developmental stages (stages II through IV) according to Nadler's criteria. All of them showed the Ig heavy chain (IgH) gene rearrangement, and 67%...
متن کاملDetection of T-cell receptor gamma chain V gene rearrangements using the polymerase chain reaction: application to the study of clonal disease cells in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
This report describes the development and characterization of a method for the amplification of rearranged V-J segments of the human T-cell receptor gamma chain (TCRG) locus using an adaptation of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique. The technique uses a single pair of 'consensus' primers to amplify rearrangements involving the V gamma I subgroup genes, which are common in malignant c...
