| Vγ1–8 | Vγ9 | Vγ10 | Vγ11 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monoclonal (monoallelic) | 13/36 (36.1) | 1/34 (2.9) | 3/33 (9.1) | 6/34 (17.6) |
| Monoclonal (biallelic) | 1/36 (2.8) | 0/34 (0) | 0/33 (0) | 2/34 (5.9) |
| MP or BP | 4/36 (11.1) | 2/34 (5.9) | 5/33 (15.2) | 10/34 (29.4) |
| M1‐P2 | 0/36 (0) | 0/34 (0) | 1/33 (3) | 0/34 (0) |
| MP1‐P2 | 1/36 (2.8) | 0/34 (0) | 0/33 (0) | 0/34 (0) |
| Oligoclonal | 0/36 (0) | 3/34 (8.8) | 1/33 (3) | 2/34 (5.9) |
| Polyclonal | 17/36 (47.2) | 28/34 (82.4) | 23/33 (69.7) | 14/34 (41.2) |
Values in parentheses are percentages.
BP (mixed clonal), two distinct peaks in a polyclonal cell background; MP (mixed clonal), one distinct peak in a polyclonal cell background; M1‐P2, the first PCR showed a pure monoclonal (monoallelic) and the second a polyclonal pattern; MP1‐P2, the first PCR showed a mixed clonal (monoallelic) and the second a polyclonal pattern.
