چکیده

Cell surface expression of the T-cell receptor (TCR)/CD3 complex on the cells from 11 acute type adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and 4 lymphoma type ATL patients was examined by flow cytometry. Cells from 10 of 11 acute ATL patients were TCR alpha beta+ and CD3+, and their mean fluorescence intensities were low (TCR alpha beta, 25.3-84.6; CD3, 22.8-87.8). Cells from two of four lymphoma type ATL did not express this complex, and the other two were CD3+, TCR alpha beta-. In contrast, the mean fluorescence intensity of the TCR/CD3 complex in cells from a patient with T4 chronic lymphocytic leukemia was not low (TCR alpha beta, 129.9; CD3, 117.1). mRNA expressions of the TCR alpha, beta, and CD3 gamma, delta, epsilon, and zeta chains were examined by Northern blots. ATL cells from two acute and two lymphoma types expressed amounts of this complex equal to or greater than those expressed by T4 chronic lymphocytic leukemia. CD3 delta and TCR beta mRNA in ATL and T4 chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells were equally stable to actinomycin D treatment. The synthesis of CD3 zeta protein by ATL cells was detected by Western blotting assay. On the basis of these findings, we discuss the possible involvement of the TCR/CD3 complex in activation of ATL cells.

Effect of Anti-CD3/CD28 Dynabeads and Allogeneic PBMCs on Expansion of Anti-MUC1 Chimeric Receptor T Cells

Background and purpose: In recent years, immunotherapy using chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR T cells) has been considered as a novel and promising treatment for some diseases, especially cancer. The CAR T cell production is a multi-step, complex, time-consuming, and costly process. One of the most important steps in production of CAR T cells is expansion of these cells at appropriate num...

Altered expression of cell cycle regulators in adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma patients

Abstract Background: Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is caused by human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1).  HTLV-1 oncogenes can induce malignancy through controlled gene expression of cell cycle checkpoints in the host cell. HTLV-I genes play a pivotal role in overriding cell cycle checkpoints and deregulate cellular division. In this study, we aimed to determine and comp...
