FREQUENT CD99 AND FLI-1 EXPRESSIONS IN DIFFUSE LARGE B-CELL LYMPHOMA AND THEIR ASSOCIATION WITH PROLIFERATIVE AND APOPTOTIC RATES

ABSTRACT
Objective: CD99 and FLI-1 are best known for their diagnostic utility in Ewing sarcoma/peripheral neuroectodermal tumor (ES/PNET). Recently, CD99 immunoreactivity has been documented in a variety of tumors, including lymphoid malignancies. However, few studies have investigated the FLI-1 immunoreactivity in lymphomas. This study was conducted to determine the frequency of immunohistochemical expressions of CD99 and FLI-1 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) samples which may lead to a misdiagnosis. We also sought to determine whether the observed expressions of these markers correlate with tumor cell kinetic parameters such as proliferative index and apoptosis.

Material and Method: Using conventional paraffin embedding, immunoperoxidase staining, we retrospectively investigated Ki67 index, CD99 and FLI-1 expressions in 42 DLBCL cases. For in situ detection of apoptosis, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) -mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) technique was performed. Prechemoterapy primary tumors were used for in all cases study.

Results: Immunohistochemical expression of the proteins CD99 and FLI-1 was observed in 14/42 (33.3%) and 7/42 (16.7%) cases, respectively. Concomittant expressions of CD99 and FLI-1 proteins were found in 5/42 (11.9%) cases. The statistical analyses showed a significant positive correlation between Ki67 index and the immunohistochemical expressions of CD99 and FLI-1 (p=0.012 and p=0.046, respectively).

Conclusion: This study demonstrates that CD99 and FLI-1 are frequently expressed in DLBCL and in the differential diagnosis of CD99+ and FLI-1+ neoplasms, DLBCL should be considered. The relatively frequent expressions of CD99 and FLI-1 in DLBCL is unexpected, and their biologic and clinical significances have yet to be clarified.
