Alpha-L-fucosidase isoenzyme pattern in hairy cell leukaemia.
alpha-L-Fucosidase isoenzymes pattern in hairy cell leukaemia (HCL) is characterized by the disappearance of the more acidic form when compared to normal lymphocytes. Our data seem to indicate that this profile could not be related to the T or B phenotype because in normal lymphocytes (mainly T), MO cells possessing T markers, as well as lymphocytes from chronic lymphoid leukaemia (CLL) known to exhibit normal-like B phenotypes two alpha-L-fucosidase forms are identified and especially the more acidic one.
