We describe the presence of a high frequency of spontaneous chromosome aberrations in lymphocytes from six untreated patients with Hodgkin's disease. The characteristics of the chromosome abnormalities observed suggest the existence of a certain degree of chromosome instability in these cases, that
The expression of c-myc, c-myb, and eras protooncogenes, determined using RNA hybridization techniques (slot-blot), was significantly increased in peripheral blood T lymphocytes, but not in B cells, from 17 patients with systemic sclerosis with diffuse scleroderma, compared with the expression in no
## Abstract Fortyβone patients with progressive systemic sclerosis were studied for the presence of immune complexes by the fluidβ and solidβphase C1q binding, C1 activation, and the fluidβphase conglutinin assays. Complement activation and autoantibodies were also studied. Immune complexes were de
