The clinical, morphological, immunologic, and cytogenetic features of seven cases of chronic granulated T cell lymphocytosis with neutropenia were studied. The disorder was characterized by moderate blood and bone marrow lymphocytosis, neutropenia, polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia, splenomegaly, absence of lymphadenopathy, and a chronic, relatively stable clinical course. The proliferative lymphocytes manifested a cytotoxic/suppressor T lymphocyte phenotype. In two of four cases studied, blood lymphocytes showed clonal chromosome abnormalities. One patient treated with pulse steroid therapy had reversal of lymphocytosis and severe neutropenia with subsequent resolution of an intractable infection. The lymphocytosis and neutropenia recurred when steroids were withdrawn. Six of the seven patients were living three months to 17 years from diagnosis; one died at 4.3 years of an unrelated cause. Five of the patients, including the two with lymphocyte chromosome abnormalities, had persistent lymphocytosis and neutropenia from three months to 13 years from diagnosis. In two patients, the disease appears to have undergone spontaneous regression. No differences in clinical presentation or the morphological or immunologic characteristics of the proliferative lymphocytes were apparent between those patients with lymphocyte chromosome abnormalities and persistent disease and those who had a spontaneous regression. The finding of clonal chromosome abnormalities in the blood lymphocytes of two of the patients in this study suggests a neoplastic origin for chronic granulated T cell lymphocytosis with neutropenia. However, apparent spontaneous regression in two patients, one after 11 years, lends support to a chronic reactive or immunoregulatory disorder as the etiology. It is probable that cases of granulated T cell lymphocytosis with neutropenia, although morphologically and immunologically similar, are biologically heterogeneous.

Abstract We present a six-year follow-up of a boy with a novel type of hypolipoproteinemia, with clinical and biochemical features distinct from classical hypoalphalipoproteinemias. There were abnormally low concentrations of total and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, apolipoprotein (apo) B, apo A-I, and apo A-II, and the phospholipids were decreased. The most striking abnormality was an extra fraction containing mainly phospholipids and apo A-I in the HDL3 subfraction. This fraction is reminiscent of concentric 20- to 50-nm-diameter lamellar phospholipid liposomes. Plasma lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase activity was strongly decreased. We noted a persisting polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia, hematological abnormalities (hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia), and a progressive splenomegaly. After the five-year follow-up, the patient had recurrent severe infections; moderate hematuria and proteinuria developed gradually. Treatment with corticosteroids and immunoglobulins improved thrombocytopenia and hypolipoproteinemia. These clinical and biochemical findings differ from those in the known primary and secondary hypo-alpha-lipoproteinemia syndromes. Although investigation of the relatives suggests a familial predisposition for hypo-alpha-lipoproteinemia, the subject's condition can be regarded as acquired.

Abstract The lymphocytes of a patient with a T-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with peripheral blood involvement and polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia were characterized in terms of surface markers and immunologic functions. Using the fluorescence-activated cell sorter and employing various monoclonal antibodies against T-cell surface antigens, it was shown that almost all of the patient's peripheral blood lymphocytes were positive for OKT4 and 9.3, antibodies that recognize helper T-cell subset. The circulating lymphoma cells had typical characteristics for T cells; they formed spontaneous rosettes with sheep erythrocytes and stained with the pan-T-cell antibodies 9.6 and 10.2, but did not react with other anti-T-cell monoclonal reagents such as OKT3, UCHT-1, and 3A1. The cells appeared to be mature by the fact that they did not stain with OKT6, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase was undetectable. Functionally, they were able to provide “help” for antibody production, and they could be stimulated to produce moderate amounts of interleukin-2, while unable to proliferate in response to mitogens. Morphologically, some of the lymphocytes showed a deeply cleaved nucleus.
