Acquired amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenic purpura with humoral inhibitory factor for megakaryocyte colony formation.
A 67-year-old man with thrombocytopenia, and amegakaryocytic but otherwise normal bone marrow, was evaluated. Antibody against thrombocytes was negative and the half-life of thrombocytes was normal. In vitro clonal culture of the patient's bone marrow cells yielded no megakaryocyte colony with normal granulocyte-macrophage and erythroid colony formation. Megakaryocyte colony formation of the co...
متن کاملAcquired amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenic purpura - An underdiagnosed entity
Acquired Amegakaryocytic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (AATP) is a rare cause of thrombocytopenia presenting over a wide age group with symptoms of bleeding and bone marrow showing isolated absence of megakaryocytes in an otherwise normal marrow. Here, we report a case of AATP in a three year old female child who was then treated with anti thymocyte globulin successfully. We report this case because...
متن کاملAcquired amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenic purpura: a syndrome of diverse etiologies.
The possible pathogenetic mechanisms responsible for the production of acquired amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenic purpura (AATP) were investigated in a group of patients with this disorder. Absence of megakaryocytes and small platelet glycoprotein-bearing mononuclear cells, as determined by immunochemical staining of patient marrows with an antisera to platelet glycoproteins, suggested that the ...
متن کاملCell-mediated suppression of megakaryocytopoiesis in acquired amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenic purpura.
Acquired amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenic purpura (AATP) is a disorder of hematopoiesis characterized by severe thrombocytopenia due to a selective reduction or total absence of megakaryocytes in an otherwise normal-appearing bone marrow. Although the development of autoantibodies directed against cells in the megakaryocyte progenitor cell pool has been implicated in the pathogenesis of this di...
متن کاملCongenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenic purpura (CAMT).
Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (CAMT) is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder induced by mutations of the gene coding for thrombopoietin (TPO) receptor (c-MPL) despite high levels of serum TPO. Patients initially present with isolated thrombocytopenia that subsequently progresses into pancytopenia. Although the mechanisms leading to aplasia are unknown, the age of onset has been re...
