Tumor cells of patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL)
have the cell surface phenotype of mature T-helper lymphocytes, and it
may be impossible to differentiate them from nonmalignant lymphocytes
in skin and blood. Until now, no specific cell membrane marker of CTCL
has been reported. In the current study, it is reported for the first
time that CTCL cells express the major histocompatibility complex class
I binding p140-killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor, which has
been described on a minor subset of natural killer lymphocytes and on a
marginal circulating CD8+ T lymphocyte subset.
Interestingly, the molecular characterization of this KIR expressed by
CTCL allowed us to isolate a novel allelic form of p140-KIR3DL,
resulting in 4 amino acid substitutions, 3 in the extracellular
immunoglobulin-like domain of the protein and one in the cytoplasmic
region. This finding is likely to be important both for the
pathophysiology and for the clinical treatment of patients with CTCL.
