Résumé
To study the lymphoid clonality on Tunisian B-cell lymphomas cases by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based techniques using DNA from paraffin-embedded tissues.
Here we conducted a retrospective PCR clonality study on 73 cases of B-cell lymphomas and 12 reactive lymphoid tissues. The quality of DNA extracted was tested by beta-globin PCR. Consensus primers directed at the FRIII-VH and FRII-VH regions of the immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) gene were used to detect clonality.
The results showed that 52 of 73 (71%) B-cell lymphomas exhibited good quality of amplifiable DNA. Clonality was found in 77% of cases using the set of primers FRIIIa/LJH/VLJH and in 65.5% using the set of primers FRIIa/LJH/VLJH. Lymphomas derived from pregerminal centre showed a high rate detection of clonal IgH gene rearrangement (100%) compared to other group of tumors derived from germinal centre or postgerminal centre (74.5%). None of the polyclonal controls gave a clonal pattern.
This is the first large series of PCR clonality study of IgH gene rearrangements on B-cell lymphoma from Tunisia. Our results were similar to other reports in terms of sensitivity and specificity of these techniques and confirm the interest of that PCR for detecting clonal IgH gene rearrangements in lymphoma.
