Popis: | The apparent clonality of T cells present in enteropathy associated T cell lymphomas (EATCLs) has been previously reported by showing T cell receptor (TCR) gene rearrangement in fresh tumor tissue. The EATCL presented here exhibits the novel phenotype CD3+, HML-1+, CD4+, CD8+, and TCR Vbeta 8+. The oligoclonality of the tumor cells is shown using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on cDNA from RNA extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue. The T cells present in the lymphoma were predominantly TCR Vbeta 8+. |
