OBJECTIVES AND DESIGN Developing an effective HIV-1 vaccine that elicits broadly neutralizing HIV-1 human antibodies (bnAbs) remains a challenging goal. Extensive studies on HIV-1 have revealed various strategies employed by the virus to escape host immune surveillance. Here, we investigated the human antibody gene repertoires of uninfected and HIV-1-infected individuals at genomic DNA (gDNA) a...
PURPOSE Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma recently has been defined as a distinct subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with characteristic clinicopathologic features. A 37-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus and unilateral mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma of the lacrimal gland is described. METHODS The tumor was totally excised by lateral orbitotomy. Immunohistoch...
Crystal-storing histiocytosis (CSH) is a rare event in disorders associated with monoclonal gammopathy. The intracellular crystal formation is almost always accompanied by the expression of kappa light chains. However, the exact mechanism for the storage has not been clarified until now. We report a case of generalized CSH in a 73-year-old man who presented with IgA kappa paraproteinemia and pa...
Antibody against a cross-reactive idiotype (CRI) on human IgM-rheumatoid factor (RF) antibodies was induced by immunization of rabbits with a synthetic peptide ( PSL2 ) corresponding to the second complementarity-determining region (CDR), and adjacent amino acid residues of the kappa light chain of the IgM-RF Sie . The anti-peptide antibody bound efficiently to IgM-RF proteins known to share a ...
Using a direct immunofluorescent method, histological locations of immunoglobulins (IgG, IgM, IgA and IgD of heavy chain, and kappa and lambda of light chain) and complement components (C3 and C4) were studied in 78 brain tumors, which included 24 astrocytomas, 6 metastatic tumors, 5 medulloblastomas, 4 malignant lymphomas, 15 meningiomas, 8 schwannomas, 8 pituitary adenomas, and 8 other miscel...
A 63-year-old female was incidentally found to have leukocytosis and referred to the hematology service for evaluation. Complete blood count (CBC) revealed neutrophilia with band predominance and mild thrombocytopenia. Peripheral blood flow cytometry was unremarkable without any evidence of lymphoproliferative disorder or myeloblasts. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy revealed a markedly hyperc...
The biosynthesis of aberrant immunoglobulin polypeptides by monoclonal plasma cells has been implicated in the pathogenesis of nonsecretory myeloma. Our studies of a patient with this disorder indeed have demonstrated the presence of abnormal kappa light chains that resulted from a frameshift mutation in nucleotides encoding the constant region of the molecule. As a consequence of a 2-base dele...
Previous studies (21) have shown that two mouse kappa light (L) chain variable (V) region polymorphisms, the IB-peptide and Efla markers, reflect expression of a characteristic group of V kappa regions, called V kappa Ser, by some inbred strains and not others. Expression of V kappa Ser is controlled by a locus on chromosome 6, the chromosome that contains the kappa locus. To further characteri...
Plasma cell leukemia is a rare neoplastic proliferation of circulating plasma cells. Clonal proliferations of plasma cells, such as in plasma cell leukemia or plasma cell myeloma, are typically characterized by production of a monoclonal heavy and/or light chain immunoglobulin. We present a case of a secondary plasma cell leukemia arising from plasma cell myeloma with dual expression of lambda ...
AIM To corroborate and investigate the nature of Hodgkin/Reed-Sternberg cells (H/R-S) of various subtypes of Hodgkin's disease. METHOD Single H/R-S cells were micro-picked from frozen sections of tissues affected by Hodgkin's disease. The DNA from these cells was amplified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) gene FRIIIa/JH primers and light chain gene ...
