Abstract
Lymphocytes, isolated from the peripheral blood of normal persons and patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, have been studied for cap formation and agglutinability by Concanavalin A (Con A). Twentyβeight to 32% of the lymphocytes from 12 normal persons formed a cap and there was a similar frequency in separated B cells. The lymphocytes from 12 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia showed 6β10% cells with a cap. Lymphocytes from the leukemic patients had a higher degree of ConβAβinduced agglutinability than the lymphocytes from normal persons, and both types of cell bound a similar number of Con A molecules. The results indicate that there are differences in the mobility of Con A receptors on the surface membrane of lymphocytes from normal persons and patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
