Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are often diagnosed after demonstration of T-lineage-related antigen expression on neoplastic lymphocytes by paraffin immunoperoxidase (PIP). However, complete T-cell subset analysis for helper, suppressor/cytotoxic, alphabeta, and gammadelta phenotypes has not been examined by PIP. Therefore, PIP was performed for CD4, CD8, T-cell intracellular antigen (TIA)-1, and betaF1 expression in 31 PTCLs previously studied for CD4 and CD8 by flow cytometry. The CD4 and CD8 results from both methods were compared. All betaF1- PTCLs were studied for T-cell receptor (TCR)gammadelta by PIP. PIP showed 71% correlation with the 21 PTCLs that had distinct CD4+ CD8- or CD4- CD8+ phenotypes by flow cytometry, with 64% and 90% sensitivity for CD4 and CD8 expression, respectively. Tumor cells in four of six PTCLs that had no clear CD4 or CD8 predominance or coexpression of these antigens by flow cytometry were shown to be CD4+ CD8- or CD4- CD8+ by PIP. Twelve (39%) PTCLs demonstrated a cytotoxic (TIA-1+) phenotype by PIP, including eight CD4- CD8+, one CD4+ CD8- and three CD4- CD8- cases. Of 30 immunoreactive PTCLs, 26 (87%) were alphabeta (betaF1+) by PIP. Both large cell cases among four betaF1- PTCLs were TCRgammadelta+ by PIP, including one gammadelta+ case confirmed by flow cytometry. We conclude that CD4 and CD8 T-cell subsets can be assigned for most PTCLs by PIP, with CD4 showing moderate and CD8 showing strong correlation with flow cytometric results. PIP can also define CD4 or CD8 expression on tumor cells in the PTCLs in which flow cytometry produces inconclusive results. Cytotoxic PTCLs can be identified easily with TIA-1, which can also distinguish cytotoxic from "suppressor" CD8+ PTCLs. Most PTCLs are derived from alphabeta T-cells, however some large cell gammadelta PTCLs may be identified by PIP.
