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
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, TNFβ and GM‐CSF but not ILlβ IL2, IL3 and G‐CSF. In cell lines with a high expression of CD25 (the light chain of the IL2 receptor), we found soluble IL2 receptors in the supernatants. In addition, receptors for IL6 could be detected in most of the HD derived cell lines. However the growth of HD derived cell lines, which produce IL6 and IL6 receptors could not be inhibited by anti‐IL6 antibodies. From our data we conclude, that IL6 and additional cytokines may be involved in the biology of HD.

Five cell lines were established from four undifferentiated carcinomas and one squamous cell carcinoma of the thyroid. The levels of several kinds of cytokines were measured in the conditioned media of these cell lines by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Interleukin-6 (IL-6) was produced b
## Abstract This work was performed with L 428, a cell line established in 1978 from a patient with Hodgkin's disease. These __in vitro__ cells represent counterparts of __in vivo__ Hodgkin and Sternberg‐Reed cells. L 428 and its derived sublines produce a significant amount of colony‐stimulatling

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
