Gene rearrangement in B- and T-lymphoproliferative disease detected by the
polymerase chain reaction [see comments]

Australia.
Gene rearrangement and monoclonality have been detected in normal cells and
in lymphoproliferative disease by using the polymerase chain reaction and
primers for the V and J regions of the Ig heavy chain gene or T-cell
receptor gamma-chain gene. Using the Ig primers monoclonality was detected
in 20 of 20 normal B-lymphocyte clones and in 39 of 52 cases of various
types of B-lymphoproliferative disease, but not in 11 cases of
T-lymphoproliferative disease. Using the T-cell receptor primers,
monoclonality was detected in 186 of 192 normal T-lymphocyte clones, in 11
of 11 cases of T-lymphoproliferative disease, in 9 of 12 cases of B-acute
lymphocytic leukemia, and in 1 of 21 cases of B-non- Hodgkin's lymphoma,
but not in nine cases of B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia nor in 10 cases of
myeloma. Monoclonality was detected in material obtained by lymph node
aspiration in four of six additional cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. It
was not detected in 10 cases of acute myeloid leukemia nor in four cases of
reactive lymphadenopathy. Detection of gene rearrangement by the polymerase
chain reaction has a number of advantages over Southern blotting and is
likely to become the initial diagnostic technique of choice to detect
monoclonality.
