Phenotypic and cytotoxic characteristics of peripheral T-cell and NK-cell lymphomas in relation to Epstein-Barr virus association.

Abstract:

AIMS:We investigated the phenotypic and cytotoxic characteristics of different types of peripheral T-cell and NK-cell lymphomas and correlated the findings of cytotoxic phenotype with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) association. METHODS AND RESULTS:Eighty cases of peripheral T-cell and NK-cell lymphomas, classified according to the REAL classification, were investigated for cytotoxic phenotype (by studying T-cell intracellular antigen-1 (TIA-1) expression immunohistochemically) and EBV association (by in situ hybridization for EBV-encoded small non-polyadenylated RNAs), and the results were correlated with the specific clinicopathological types and the immunophenotype with special emphasis on CD56 expression and CD4/CD8 status. Overall, 39/80 cases (49%) expressed TIA-1. Angiocentric lymphoma (23/24 cases; 96%), aggressive NK-cell leukaemia ('large granular lymphocyte (LGL) leukaemia') (3/3 cases; 100%), intestinal T-cell lymphoma (5/6 cases; 83%) and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (4/6 cases; 67%) were the major subtypes showing a cytotoxic phenotype. Only four of the 27 cases (15%) of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, unspecified, were TIA-1+, while all the seven cases of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, six cases of mycosis fungoides and one case of adult T-cell lymphoma/leukaemia were TIA-1-. CONCLUSIONS:Within the group of peripheral T-cell and NK-cell lymphomas, angiocentric lymphoma, aggressive NK-cell leukaemia ('LGL leukaemia'), intestinal T-cell lymphoma and anaplastic large cell lymphoma are the major subtypes displaying a cytotoxic phenotype. The relationships between the cytotoxic phenotype and EBV association, CD56 expression or CD4/CD8 status are secondary to the relationship between cytotoxic phenotype and specific lymphoma subtype.
