COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF SEROLOGICAL MARKERS OF HERPES VIRUSES AND QUANTITATIVE IMMUNOGLOBULINOPATHIES IN PRIMARY PATIENTS WITH ANGIOIMMUNOBLASTIC T-CELL LYMPHOMA

Abstract

Introduction. Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is associated with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in most cases. It is believed polyclonal hypergammaglobulinaemia observed in 53-80% of AITL patients has anti-herpes viral antibodies as its substrate. Aim. The aim of the study was to compare serological markers of herpes viruses and quantitative immunoglobulinopathies of classes M and G in primary patients with AITL. Materials and methods. 26 primary patients with newly diagnosed AITL treated at the National Research Center for Hematology from 2002 to 2017 were enrolled in the study. The male/female ratio was 16/10; median age was 62 (29-81) years. The levels of total immunoglobulins of classes M and G, serological markers of EBV, cytomegalovirus (CMV) and herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 (HSV 1, 2) were assessed in all patients. Results. Significant relationship was found between the presence of virus-specific IgM (IgM HSV 1, 2, IgM CMV, IgM VCA EBV) and an elevated level of total immunoglobulins of class M (p <0.0001). Studies of each virus separately showed that the greatest correlation was observed for IgM HSV 1, 2 (p <0,0001), whereas the association of IgM CMV and IgM VCA EBV with quantitative immunoglobulinopathies of class M was not confirmed (p = 0,15 and p = 0,36 respectively). There was no considerable relationship between polyclonal IgG hypergammaglobulinaemia and an increased level of antiviral IgG (IgG HSV 1, 2, IgG CMV, IgG EBNA-1 EBV, IgG EA EBV) (p> 0,37). Conclusion. We have shown that the presence of the anti-herpes viral IgM strictly correlates with polyclonal IgM hypergammaglobulinaemia, while an increased level of virus-specific IgG antibodies does not affect the formation of polyclonal IgG hypergammaglobulinaemia and can be observed in IgG hypogammaglobulinaemia.
