Abstract excerpt
B-lymphocyte clones bearing an idiotypic Ig structure, which could also be found on the serum M-component, have been isolated from peripheral blood of a patient with monoclonal gammopathy (MG) using an immune-rosetting technique and limiting dilution. The majority of the cells had the surface phenotype id+/CD19+/CD20+/CD21+ or id+/CD19+/CD20+/CD21-. Some of the clones originated from spontaneous outgrowth of...
