Syndecan-1 is considered an important transmembrane proteoglycan in cell-microenvironment interactions, but its exact function in normal or in transformed B cells is still unknown. In this study, RNA was isolated from peripheral cells of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (B-CLL) and 'normal', non-leukaemic patients, as controls. Reverse PCR showed no or very low syndecan-1 mRNA expression in controls, while in 11/13 B-CLL the circulating leukaemic cells expressed syndecan-1. Similar results were obtained for interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Furthermore, syndecan-1 protein was detected in the majority of circulating B-CLL cells by flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry using anti-syndecan-1 MAb. Control cells were practically negative. Further study is required to understand the biological significance of syndecan-1 on B-CLL cells.
