heal.abstract | We have investigated the immunohistochemical expression of beta2-microglobulin and HLA-DR proteins in Hodgkin's disease (HD) in relation to the expression of the EBV-encoded EBER1-2 mRNAs and the LMP-1 protein. beta2-microglobulin is expressed in association with MHC-I molecules on most nucleated cells and HLA-DR belongs to the MHC-II molecules which are expressed mostly on antigen-presenting cells. Formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissue from 39 cases of lymphonodal HD were stained by immunohistochemistry for beta2-microglobulin, HLA-DR and LMP-1 proteins and by RNA in situ hybridization for EBER1-2 mRNAs. beta2-microglobulin positive staining was found in Reed-Sternberg and Hodgkin cells (HRS cells) in 18/39 cases of HD. HLA-DR positive staining was found in HRS cells in all cases of HD. EBER1-2 transcripts and LMP-1 protein were detected in HRS cells in 16/39 cases of HD. No correlation as found between the presence of EBER 1-2 transcripts or the LMP-1 protein and the detection of beta2-microglobulin and HLA-DR proteins in HD. Thus, EBV does not seem to use downregulation of MHC-I to avoid the T-cell cytotoxic immune response in HD. In addition, EBV does not seem to be the only factor responsible for the HLA-DR expression in HRS cells of HD, although it could participate in the induction of the expression of HLA-DR molecule in the EBV positive cases of HD. | en |
