Monoclonal immunophenotyping of leukemia cells of the bone marrow was carried out by the method of rapid immune alkaline phosphatase (RIAP) in 30 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) aged 6 months-14 years. The authors used a panel of monoclonal antibodies (MCA) produced by Leu (Belgium) and DAKO (Denmark) directed to antigens of differentiation clusters: Tdt, HLA-DR, CD: 10, 19, 20, 22, 7, 8, 2, 5, 13, 33, 14. The results indicate diversity of compositions of differentiating antigens on leukemia cells of the dominant population and a different degree of leukemic cell pool heterogenicity. RIAP advantages over flow cytometry in immunotyping of ALL cells are shown. Arguments are provided in favor of introduction of broader MCA panel. |
