Abstract:
Objective To explore the feasibility and significance of detecting Cyclin D1 and bcl-2 with flow cytometry in the diagnosis of B-cell lymphoma.Methods 45 patients patients with confirmed hematologic diseases in final diagnosis were collected and recorded 45 cases in detail included in the study.25 healthy persons showing normal results in routine physical examinations and laboratory tests were also selected and matched according to the age and gender.In addition,according to the age and gender matching principle,selected routine physical examination and all tests were within the normal range in 25 healthy persons as a healthy control group.Select the pathologically confirmed Cyclin D1 or bcl-2 positive cases were selected as the positive control group,select and the negative cases as the negative control group.Four-color monoclonal antibodies directly immunofluorescence monoclonal antibody labelinged with immunofluorescence were used to analyze the surface and cytoplasmic antigens,and multi-parameter flow cytometry was used to investigate the peripheral blood Cyclin D1 and bcl-2 subsets in lymphoma patients.Results The normal values of Cyclin D1 MFI and bcl-2 were obtained from the 25 normal volunteers by analyzing the (x)±s values and 95 % confidence interval,thus establishing the diagnostic criteria.Compared to the healthy control (0.356±0.159,1.938±0.324),all B-cell lymphoma patients had increased expression in Cyclin D1 (1.824±0.312)and bcl-2 MFI (4.259±0.541) in their peripheral blood,results showing statistical significance (P < 0.01).Patients with different subtypes of lymphoma expressed differing Cyclin D1 MFI.In patients with Hodgkin' s lymphoma,Cyclin D1 MFI (0.386±0.112) was significantly lower than that in the non-Hodgkin' s lymphoma patients (1.623±1.987) (P < 0.01).Further,in non-Hodgkin' s lymphoma patients,mantle cell lymphoma was 100 % positive for Cyclin D1,while the remaining subtypes were negative.Patients with different subtypes of lymphoma also showed differences in bcl-2 expression.In the Hodgkin' s lymphoma,bcl-2 (2.045±0.877) was significantly lower than the non-Hodgkin' s lymphoma (4.045±0.499) (P < 0.01).In non-Hodgkin' s lymphoma,T cell lymphoma expressed the lowest,while MCL and FL showed 100 % positivity.In patients with positive Cyclin D1 or bcl-2,the mean fluorescence intensity level of Cyclin D1 (before treatment 3.099±0.349; after treatment 1.008±0.279) or bcl-2 (before treatment 7.814± 1.030,after treatment 3.131±0.522) was significantly lowered after treatment (P < 0.01).Conclusion Using the method of flow cytometry for detecting Cyclin D1 and bcl-2 in lymphoma cells is feasible,and it can be applied clinically to evaluate the treatment.
