The cell line KG1 derived from a patient with erythroleukemia in myeloblastic relapse has the composite phenotype and functional repertoire of myeloblasts. In marked contrast, its subline KG1a has lost myeloid features, acquired new karyotypic markers, and has three characteristics associated with immature T cells: low-level expression of the T cell receptor beta mRNA (but not alpha) transcribed from a germline gene; high-level expression of T3 delta mRNA and intracellular, but not cell surface, T3 protein; and expression of the CD7/gp40 T cell-associated membrane antigen. Both KG1 and KG1a transcribe unrearranged IgH genes. These data suggest that either the KG1 cell line was derived from a common myeloid-lymphoid progenitor or that the KG1a subline phenotype is aberrant.

We describe the characterization of a new human cell line, Karpas 299 (K299), established from blast cells in the peripheral blood of a 25- year-old white man. His illness, which began with enlarged occipital and axillary nodes and weight loss, ended after 7 months with generalized lymphadenopathy, pleural effusion, and bone marrow involvement. A lymph node biopsy showed a large cell lymphoma mainly sinusoidal in distribution. The blast cells with pleomorphic nuclei resembled primitive histiocytes. The cells, which expressed the T-cell- associated markers CD4 and CD5, were positive for HLA-DR, epithelial membrane antigen, and CD30 (Ki-1 antigen). The karyotype was aneuploid and included a translocation 2;5. The site of translocation on chromosome 5 (at 5q35.1) is in the region of the locus of the c-fms oncogene (receptor of the monocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor MCSF or CSF-1). The cell line Karpas 299 has the same karyotype and pattern of antigen expression as the patient's cells. Northern blot analysis of RNA showed an active rearrangement of the T-cell receptor beta-chain gene. This is to our knowledge the first Ki-1 antigen- positive line to be established from a case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

A human leukemia cell line, PER-255, was established from the bone marrow of a 5-year-old boy with features typical of lymphomatous T- acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). The leukemic origin of cell line PER-255 is indicated by its cytochemical and immunologic similarity to the patient's fresh leukemic cells, which correspond to immature cortical thymocytes. Southern blot analysis showed that the IgJH genes were in germline configuration, whereas both alleles of the T-cell receptor-beta (TCR-beta) gene were rearranged in PER-255 cells, with identical rearrangements present in the patient's leukemic cells. Cytogenetic analysis of the cell line revealed a single abnormal clone with the karyotype 46,XY,t(7;10)(q32–34;q24),t(9;12) (p22;p12–13). Reciprocal translocations involving chromosome bands 7q32–36, containing the gene for the TCR-beta chain, have been reported for a number of tumors of T-cell origin. Translocations involving the 7q32–36 region appear to be nonrandomly associated with childhood T-ALL, whereas abnormalities of 9p and 12p have been reported to be nonrandomly involved in ALL but not specifically associated with the T- cell phenotype.

The bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) belongs to the Cetartiodactyla and, similarly to other cetaceans, represents the most successful mammalian colonization of the aquatic environment. Here we report a genomic, evolutionary, and expression study of T. truncatus T cell receptor beta (TRB) genes. Although the organization of the dolphin TRB locus is similar to that of the other artiodactyl species, with three in tandem D-J-C clusters located at its 3′ end, its uniqueness is given by the reduction of the total length due essentially to the absence of duplications and to the deletions that have drastically reduced the number of the germline TRBV genes. We have analyzed the relevant mature transcripts from two subjects. The simultaneous availability of rearranged T cell receptor α (TRA) and TRB cDNA from the peripheral blood of one of the two specimens, and the human/dolphin amino acids multi-sequence alignments, allowed us to calculate the most likely interactions at the protein interface between the alpha/beta heterodimer in complex with major histocompatibility class I (MH1) protein. Interacting amino acids located in the complementarity-determining region according to IMGT numbering (CDR-IMGT) of the dolphin variable V-alpha and beta domains were identified. According to comparative modelization, the atom pair contact sites analysis between the human MH1 grove (G) domains and the T cell receptor (TR) V domains confirms conservation of the structure of the dolphin TR/pMH.
