Examples are presented in which normal as well as abnormal chromosome distributions could be obtained from the same individual by means of bivariate flow karyotyping. Selective stimulation of T-lymphocytes obtained by E-rosetting from the blood of a patient with acute myelocytic leukemia resulted in a normal flow karyogram. The specific stimulation of myelocytic leukemia cells with granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin 3 (IL-3) yielded flow karyograms displaying the leukemia-associated chromosome abnormalities. The resulting flow karyograms could be used to discriminate between homolog differences, which appear normally in virtually every individual, and leukemia-associated chromosomal aberrations. In the case of a female chronic myelocytic leukemia patient who received bone marrow form an HLA-identical male donor, specific stimulation of various subsets of cells enabled to discriminate between leukemic host cells and non-leukemic donor cells. Both the leukemia-specific translocations and sex chromosomes were used as markers to analyse the flow karyograms obtained from the same sample.
