We performed a clonality analysis using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) gene rearrangement, specifically with regard to its utility as a method to diagnose bovine B-cell lymphoma. PCR for IgH gene rearrangement indicated monoclonal proliferation of B-cells in 24 of 35 cattle with B-cell lymphoma. In contrast, PCR for IgH gene rearrangement in lymph nodes and tumor tissues from 65 cattle diagnosed with tumors other than B-cell lymphoma and non-tumors revealed polyclonal population of B-cells. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for PCR for IgH gene rearrangement for bovine B-cell lymphoma were 68.6%, 100%, 100%, and 85.5%, respectively. Clonality analysis using PCR for IgH gene rearrangement may be useful for adjunctive diagnosis of bovine B-cell lymphoma.
