{"title":"Autoimmunity and B-cell malignancies.","authors":"G Dighiero","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"There is evidence indicating that autoreactive B cells constitute a substantial part of the B-cell repertoire. This autoreactive repertoire secrete the so called natural autoantibodies characterized by their broad reactivity mainly directed against very well conserved public epitopes. They fulfill the definition of an autoantibody since they are self-reactive, but they are not self-specific. As yet, NAA directed against determinants of polymorphism have not been reported. Their germinal origin is suggested by their early appearance during ontogeny, their expression of cross-reactive idiotopes and structural studies of their sequence. As for the physiological role of the repertoire, we can assume that it may play a major role as a first barrier of defense. It is presently unknown whether these polyreactive B cells could constitute a pre-immune template which through an antigen driven process may be involved in the production of immune high affinity antibodies. This autoreactive B cell repertoire frequently undergoes malignant transformation, although there is controversy concerning the reasons accounting for this. It has been postulated that the continuous challenge of this autoreactive repertoire by self-antigens could create propitious conditions for malignant transformation to occur. However, it can be alternatively postulated, that overexpression of certain genes reflect what happens during ontogeny, since V genes expression is a developmentally regulated phenomenon and not all V genes are expressed during fetal life. Some of the genes that are recurrently expressed by these malignancies are also over-expressed in fetal repertoires and even in the adult normal B cell repertoire. We do not know whether it is the challenge by self-antigens or whether alternatively this over-expression simply reflects what happens with the fetal repertoire which could have selective advantages for malignization.","PeriodicalId":73231,"journal":{"name":"Hematology and cell therapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20478375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It offers automated mixing of vacuum-collected blood for 5 minutes (min) and reading of the ESR for 20 min to generate values comparable with those of the Westergren method at 1 hour (h) and 2 h. The benefits are (1) simplified procedure, (2) reduction of biohazard and, (3) shortening of examination time. To evaluate the basic performance of this system, the stability of ESR values was first evaluated by keeping samples at room temperature for up to 20 h, during which time no remarkable change was observed. Next, a comparison between this system and the standard method of Westergren was conducted and good agreement was obtained. To determine the factors affecting ESR values, correlations were analyzed between the ESR obtained by SEDISYSTEM and the standard Westergren method for red blood cell concentration, hematocrit, and plasma proteins including fibrinogen, albumin and globulins (alpha1, alpha2, beta and gamma). Multiple regression analysis showed significant correlation with RBC, fibrinogen and gamma globulin. It is concluded from these results that SEDISYSTEM is a useful new tool for the measurement of ESR.","PeriodicalId":73231,"journal":{"name":"Hematology and cell therapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20478378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An in vitro cell differentiation method has recently been developed that uses GM-CSF and IL-4 to generate human DC from adherent blood mononuclear cells cultured on tissue culture plastic. These cells are competent for antigen uptake but express relatively low levels of co-stimulatory molecules and thus correspond to immature resident tissue DC. We have adapted this method to consider some variables that are pertinent to clinical use, including a large scale differentiation of functional DC in a culture system suitable for clinical use. We report here that sizable numbers of monocytes purified by elutriation from blood leukocytes and cultured in Teflon bags develop with high efficiency into typical DC, as defined by morphology and membrane phenotype. When compared with usual adherent DC, cells generated under our adherent-free conditions exhibited lower CD1a expression and antigen capture capacity, but maintained the ability to present soluble antigens to T cells. They neoexpressed a high level of the co-stimulator molecule B7-2 (CD86) and was potent accessory cells for T cell proliferation, but they lacked the CD83 marker of DC full maturation. This study may constitute a prerequisite step for clinical investigations in tumor immunotherapy.","PeriodicalId":73231,"journal":{"name":"Hematology and cell therapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20478377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twelve patients had prolonged post-transplantation thrombopenia (> or = 14 days): their graft contents in CD34+ cells, CFU-GM and BFU-E were significantly inferior to those of patients with rapid platelet recovery. Although numbers of infused CD34+ cells and CFU-GM or BFU-E were well correlated, the graft content in CD34+ cells was the only parameter predictive of platelet recovery (r = -0.38, p = 0.04), with a threshold of 2.5 x 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg. However, because rapid platelet reconstitution was obtained for 4 of 16 patients re-infused with < 2.5 x 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg, we investigated whether the graft CFU-MK content might be a better predictor of platelet reconstitution than the CD34+ cell content. Eighteen CD34 grafts were studied for CFU-MK content: CD34 and CFU-MK contents were weakly correlated (r = 0.52, p = 0.03), but there was no correlation between numbers of infused CFU-MK and time to platelet recovery. We conclude that, for autologous CD34 grafts, CFU-MK assays, like CFU-GM or BFU-E assays, cannot be used to predict platelet recovery. A CD34+ cell content > or = 2.5 x 10(6)/kg remains the only reliable indicator of the platelet reconstitution capacity of a CD34 graft.","PeriodicalId":73231,"journal":{"name":"Hematology and cell therapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s00282-997-0317-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20423304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients following ABMT were divided in 2 groups, those who did not received G-CSF post-transplant (ABMT, n = 6) and those who did (ABMT + G, n = 8). All patients following PBSCT or allo BMT received G-CSF.

Bone marrow stem cell collection was performed after a high-dose melphalan (HDM) course (140 mg/m2). Autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) was performed with this cryo-preserved unpurged bone marrow sample after a second HDM course. Three months after ABMT, the patient presented with signs of central nervous involvement with plasma cells and monoclonal IgG kappa in the cerebral fluid. The patient died despite systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy. A 50-year-old man was initially treated with 3 courses of VAD for a stage IIIA IgD lambda multiple myeloma. Blood stem cell were collected after a course of high-dose etoposide and cyclophosphamide. ABMT was performed after total body irradiation (TBI) and HDM. Three months later, he presented with right leg palsy and a lumbar puncture showed numerous plasma cells and the presence of the IgG lambda. The patient died of neurological complications three months later. Extramedullary occurred prior to medullary relapse in the two cases, suggesting the presence of an extramedullary clone of plasma cells with a high degree of chemo-resistance. Although high-dose chemotherapy appears promising, this therapeutic approach could allow the occurrence of presently unobserved complications. Wether CNS prophylaxis is indicated in this context, as recommended in leukemia, remains an open question.","PeriodicalId":73231,"journal":{"name":"Hematology and cell therapy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s00282-997-0327-6","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20423305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
