Chemokine receptors mediate the migration of lymphocytes through the binding of soluble ligands, and their expression is differentially regulated in lymphocyte subsets. The pattern of chemokine receptor expression in T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma has not been previously studied. Using a panel of mouse monoclonal antibodies, we studied the immunohistochemical expression of the Th1-associated chemokine receptor CXCR3 in 141 patients with T-cell lymphoma, and we studied the receptors CCR4 and CCR5 and some of their ligands in a subset of these tumors. Expression of CXCR3 was typical of the smaller T cells in angioimmunoblastic lymphoma (15 of 18 patients), angiocentric lymphoma (3 of 3 patients), histiocyte-rich tumors (4 of 5 patients), and unspecified T-cell lymphomas (17 of 39 patients). CXCR3 expression was seen in only 1 of 15 patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive anaplastic large-cell lymphoma. In contrast, all ALK-positive tumors showed diffuse reactivity for the Th2-associated receptor CCR4 (5 of 5 patients). CCR4 expression was also a consistent feature of the large-cell transformation of mycosis fungoides. CCR5 expression showed no consistent association with any T-cell tumor type. The chemokines Mig (CXCR3 ligand), TARC (CCR4 ligand), and MCP-2 (CCR5 ligand) were detected in intratumoral blood vessels and histiocytes. Mig was also coexpressed by a subset of CXCR3-positive tumor cells in 6 of 20 lymphomas. MCP-2 was highly expressed in stromal cells in 3 patients with nodal involvement by cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. As with normal T-cell subsets, we demonstrated that there is frequent differential expression of chemokine receptors in T-cell tumors, which may explain, in part, the distinctive patterns of spread in different tumor subtypes.
