Monoclonal antibody (MoAb) M27 was generated after immunization of mice with the human B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line Pre- ALP. Under reducing conditions, MoAb M27 precipitated a 60-kD surface- membrane molecule from Pre-ALP cells. Expression cloning of Pre-ALP cDNA showed that M27 recognizes carboxypeptidase M (CPM), a cell- surface, zinc-dependent protease known to cleave off basic C-terminal amino acids from peptide hormones. Using M27 antibody, CPM was detected only at discrete B lymphocyte developmental stages, namely on committed precursors and on germinal center cells. CPM was also expressed on mature T cells, mainly after activation. These results provide the first description of a carboxy-peptidase on lymphoid cells. In addition, CPM was found on granulocytes and monocytes, but not on their progenitors. Strikingly, CPM was present only on CD38+ cells, irrespective of lineage affiliation. Of interest, CPM displayed a largely overlapping distribution with the CD10 and CD13 peptidases, with which it shares common substrates (enkephalins, bradykinin). Collectively, the present data show a previously unrecognized distribution pattern of CPM on lymphoid and myeloid cells and suggest that CPM may cooperate with CD10 and CD13 to regulate biologic activity of peptide hormones on leukocytes.

Abstract A cell line, designated RS4;11, was established from the bone marrow of a patient in relapse with an acute leukemia that was characterized by the t(4;11) chromosomal abnormality. The cell line and the patient's fresh leukemic cells both had the t(4;11)(q21;q23) and an isochromosome for the long arm of No. 7. Morphologically, all cells were lymphoid in appearance. Ultrastructurally and cytochemically, approximately 30% of the cells possessed myeloid features. The cells were strongly positive for terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase. They were HLA-DR positive and expressed surface antigens characteristic for B lineage cells, including those detected by anti-B4, BA-1, BA-2, and PI153/3. Immunoglobulin gene analysis revealed rearrangements of the heavy chain and kappa chain genes. The cells lacked the common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen and antigenic markers characteristic of T lineage cells. The cells reacted with the myeloid antibody 1G10 but not with other myeloid monoclonal antibodies. Treatment with 12-O-tetradecanoyl- phorbol-13-acetate induced a monocyte-like phenotype demonstrated by cytochemical, functional, immunologic, and electron microscopic studies. The expression of markers of both early lymphoid and early myeloid cells represents an unusual phenotype and suggests that RS4;11 represents a cell with dual lineage capabilities. To our knowledge, RS4;11 is the first cell line established from t(4;11)-associated acute leukemia.

Abstract We evaluated the potential role of photoradiation therapy with a benzoporphyrin derivative, monoacid ring A (BPD-MA), and dihematoporphyrin ether (DHE), for the ex vivo purging of residual tumor cells from autologous bone marrow (BM) grafts. BPD-MA and DHE photosensitizing activity was tested against two human large-cell lymphoma cell lines and colony-forming unit-leukemia (CFU-L) derived from patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). In mixing experiments, 4-log elimination of tumor cell lines was observed after 1 hour of incubation with 75 ng/mL of BPD-MA or 30 minutes of treatment with 12.5 micrograms/mL of DHE followed by white light exposure. By comparison, using the same concentration of BPD-MA, the mean recovery of normal BM progenitors was 4% +/- 0.8% (mean +/- SD) for granulocyte- macrophage colony-forming unit (CFU-GM) and 5% +/- 0.8% for burst- forming unit-erythroid (BFU-E). Similarly, DHE treatment resulted in the recovery of 5.2% +/- 2% and 9.8% +/- 3% of CFU-GM and BFU-E, respectively. Furthermore, equivalently cytotoxic concentrations of both DHE and BPD-MA and light were found not to kill normal pluripotent stem cells in BM, as demonstrated by their survival in two-step long- term marrow culture at levels equal to untreated controls. The T- lymphoblastic leukemia cell line CEM and its vinblastine (VBL)- resistant subline CEM/VBL, along with the acute promyelocyte leukemia cell line HL-60 and its vincristine (VCR)-resistant subline HL-60/VCR, were also tested. BPD-MA at 75 ng/mL was able to provide a greater than 4-log elimination of the drug-sensitive cell lines, but only a 34% and 55% decrease of the drug-resistant HL-60/VCR and CEM/VBL cell lines, respectively. On the contrary, 12.5 micrograms/mL of DHE reduced the clonogenic growth of all the cell lines by more than 4 logs. Further experiments demonstrated decreased uptake of both BPD-MA and DHE by the resistant cell lines. However, all the cell lines took up more DHE than BPD-MA under similar experimental conditions. Our results demonstrate the preferential cytotoxicity of BPD-MA and DHE toward neoplastic cell lines and CFU-L from AML patients. In addition, DHE was slightly more effective in purging tumor cells expressing the p-170 glycoprotein. These results suggest that photoradiation with DHE would be useful for in vitro purging of residual drug-resistant leukemia and lymphoma cells.

Abstract The present study was aimed at identifying surface-membrane molecules involved in the regulation of human B-cell ontogeny. For this purpose, murine monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) were generated against Pre-Alp, a pre-B acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cell line, and MoAb R34.34 was selected for further characterization. R34.34 recognized a molecule expressed on normal B-cell precursors (BCP) but not on mature B cells. The antibody also reacted with T lymphocytes, a subpopulation of monocytes from peripheral blood, and a subset of CD34+ cells. Immunoprecipitation analysis indicated that R34.34 recognizes an 80-kD molecular weight antigen. Antibody R34.34 was further found to be directed against an epitope interfering with binding of interleukin-7 (IL-7) to Pre-Alp cells. Expression cloning from a Pre-Alp cDNA library showed that R34.34 antigen is CDw127, the 75- to 80-kD IL-7 receptor. Proliferation of the B-lineage ALL cell lines Reh and Mieliki was inhibited by IL-7, and this effect was specifically reverted by MoAb R34.34. In addition, antibody R34.34 specifically inhibited IL-7- dependent proliferation of normal BCP, Pre-Alp cells, and peripheral T cells. These results imply that both inhibitory and proliferative effects of IL-7 can be mediated through the same receptor on various lineages. R34.34 antibody should be important for the analysis of signal transduction through CDw127.

Abstract We examined the effect of daunorubicin (DNR), the new anthracycline derivative idarubicin (IDR), and verapamil on two leukemia cell lines that displayed the multidrug resistant (MDR) phenotype and used laser flow cytometry to quantitate intracellular anthracycline content. The vinblastine-resistant human lymphoblastic leukemia cell line CEM-VBL demonstrated minimal DNR uptake; simultaneous incubation with verapamil and DNR increased intracellular DNR uptake fourfold. IDR uptake was 10 times more rapid in these cells and simultaneous incubation with IDR and verapamil resulted in only a 1.2-fold increase of intracellular IDR. Similar results were observed in the vincristine-resistant human myeloid leukemia cell line HL-60/RV+. Intracellular retention of DNR and IDR was also measured in each cell line. In CEM-BVL cells, 38% of the original DNR concentration remained after a 2-hour resuspension in fresh medium compared with 71% of the original IDR concentration. In HL- 60/RV+ cells, 36% of the DNR concentration remained compared with 51% of the IDR concentration. After incubation of CEM-VBL and HL-60/RV+ cells with DNR for 1 hour followed by resuspension in fresh medium plus verapamil, intracellular DNA retention increased 5- and 5.2-fold, respectively. However, incubation of these cells for 1 hour with IDR followed by resuspension in fresh medium plus verapamil resulted in only a 1.6- and 2.4-fold increase in intracellular IDR retention. Lastly, clonogenic experiments were performed to correlate intracellular anthracycline content with cytotoxicity. DNR alone had a minimal effect on the clonogenic growth of CEM-VBL cells, whereas the combination of DNR plus verapamil resulted in approximately 80% growth inhibition. However, incubation of these cells with IDR alone resulted in greater than 95% growth inhibition. These results suggest that IDR may be more effective than DNR in leukemia cells that display the MDR phenotype.
