Establishing reference ranges by multiparametric immunophenotyping of mature B cells in bone marrow and peripheral blood of healthy adults is of interest because the detection of bone marrow infiltration, persistance of light chain restriction as well as discrimination between reactice and malignant lymphocytes are important applications of B-cell immunophenotyping. To determine the pattern of antigens as expressed by malignant mature B lymphocytes, bone marrow aspirates and peripheral blood of healthy adults in the present study were investigated for the presence and percentage frequency of those antigens as defined for immunophenotyping of B-cells by the REAL-Classification. For this purpose analysis of CD19 positive B lymphocytes by Live Gate analysis was performed. The established two-color as well as three-color stainings will serve as a basis for future investigations designed to test multiparametric analysis of B lymphocytes in bone marrow aspirates and peripheral blood. In conclusion, all investigated antibodies stained in varying percentage frequency on B-cell subtypes and statistical significant differences could be considered only for the CD19/CD10 staining in bone marrow aspirates. On the basis of this analysis, all the reported lineage antigen combinations are present both in malignant B lymphocytes as well as normal B cells in considerable percentage frequency. These findings are of important interest for follow-up investigations of patients with non-Hodgkin s lymphomas by multiparametric immunophenotyping.
