Three Hodgkin's disease-derived cell lines were analysed for the organization of immunoglobulin and T cell receptor genes, for the expression of the interleukin 2 (IL-2) receptor gene, and for the cellular oncogene c-myc. All three cell lines have characteristic genotypic markers of lymphoid cells a

Abstract
We have examined the Hodgkin's disease derived cell line Co in terms of its capacity to differentiate in vitro. Co cells show the characteristics of immature T cells and express CD3 molecules in the cytoplasm. On activation with 12‐O‐tetradecanoylphorbol‐13‐acetate (TPA) these cells express the CD3 antigen and the T cell receptor αβ (TCRαβ) on the cell surface. Surface expression of the activation marker CD25 (IL2 receptor) was also greatly increased, whereas CD4 and CD8 levels were not altered. Supernatants of TPA‐stimulated Co cells contained the cytokines IL2, IL3, IL4 and IL8, whereas these cytokines were not detected in the supernatants of untreated cells. Different subclones of the Co cell line differed in their response to TPA with respect to the induced CD3 and TCR expression. Our data demonstrate that a Hodgkin's disease derived cell line can be induced to differentiate in vitro from a pre‐T cell phenotype towards a more mature T cell. It is possible that similar processes may occur in Hodgkin's disease in vivo.

## Abstract The production of cytokines was analysed in Hodgkin's disease (HD) derived cell lines by enzyme linked immunosorbent tests (ELISA) and Northern blot experiments. Our results demonstrate that HD derived cell lines produce a variety of cytokines, such as ILlα, IL4, IL5, IL6, IL8, TNFα, TN
## Abstract Antisera to the cell line L428, derived from Hodgkin's disease, were raised in rabbits by injecting L428 cells intravenously and subcutaneously. The anti‐L428 cell serum that did not react with HLA‐DR was absorbed with tonsil cells plus acute myeloid leukemia cells or tonsil cells plus
The Src homology 2 domain protein 1A (SH2D1A) is a small, 128-amino acid protein consisting of a single SH2 domain; it is probably involved in signal regulation. It is expressed in activated T and natural killer (NK) cells, but not in B lymphocytes. It was discovered in studies on the rare hereditar
## Background. A novel Hodgkin disease (HD)-derived cell line, designated HKB-1, was established from pulmonary HD of nodular sclerosing subtype of a 14-year-old girl. Procedure and Results. Immunophenotypically, HKB-1 cells are of B cell in phenotype, being also positive for markers CD15, CD25 an
