Detection of clonal T-cell receptor gamma-chain gene rearrangements in Reed-Sternberg cells of classic Hodgkin disease
15 May 2000
Abstract excerpt
Recent molecular single-cell studies have shown that in approximately 95% of cases, Reed-Sternberg cells of classic Hodgkin disease (HD) are derived from B cells of germinal center origin. Attempts to determine the cellular nature of the remaining cases have so far failed. To clarify whether they are derived from T cells, this study examined 791 single CD30(+) Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells from 13 T-cell...
