NEOPLASIA

Interleukin 13 and interleukin 13 receptor are frequently expressed by Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells of Hodgkin lymphoma

Brian F. Skinnider, Andrew J. Elia, Randy D. Gascoyne, Lorenz H. Trümper, Frederike von Bonin, Ursula Kapp, Bruce Patterson, Bryan E. Snow, and Tak W. Mak

From the Amgen Institute, Ontario Cancer Institute, the Department of Medical Biophysics, and the Department of Immunology, University of Toronto, Ontario, Canada; the Department of Pathology, British Columbia Cancer Agency, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada; the Department of Internal Medicine I, University of Saarland, Homburg, Germany; the Department of Hematology/Oncology, University Medical Center, Freiburg, Germany; and the Department of Oncologic Pathology, Ontario Cancer Institute, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is characterized by the abnormal expression of multiple cytokines, accounting for its unique clinicopathologic features. We have previously shown that interleukin-13 (IL-13) is secreted by HL cell lines and may serve as an autocrine growth factor. To determine the frequency of IL-13 expression in lymphoma patients, tissue sections from 36 patients with classical HL, 5 patients with nodular lymphocyte predominance HL (NLPHL), and 23 patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) were subjected to in situ hybridization. In 31 of 36 cases (86%) of classical HL patients of all histologic subtypes, between 25% to almost 100% of Hodgkin and Reed Sternberg (HRS) cells were positive for IL-13 expression. In contrast, in no case of NLPHL and in only 4 of 23 NHL cases (1 of 5 T-cell-rich B-cell lymphomas, 2 of 5 anaplastic large cell lymphomas, and 1 of 5 peripheral T-cell lymphomas) did the neoplastic cells express IL-13. The expression of the IL-13 receptor chain alpha 1 (IL-13Ralpha 1) was also analyzed by in situ hybridization. In 24 of 27 (89%) cases of classical HL, between 25% to 75% of HRS cells, as well as a high frequency of lymphocytes and histiocytes, were positive for IL-13Ralpha 1 expression. These results were confirmed by the construction of complementary DNA libraries from single HRS cells, followed by polymerase chain reaction analysis, in which IL-13Ralpha 1 transcripts were found to be present in all 6 cases of HL. These data indicate that expression of IL-13 and IL-13Ralpha 1 is a common feature of HRS cells in HL, consistent with the hypothesis that IL-13 may play a role in autocrine growth in classical HL.
