Cyclic oscillations of leucocyte counts in chronic myeloid leukaemia.
A patient with chronic myeloid leukaemia, having two unusual features, is described. He had absence of splenomegaly and marked periodic fluctuations of leucocyte counts, occurring spontaneously, in the initial phase of the disease. The latter finding suggests that, at least in some patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia, negative feed back control mechanism(s), possibly exerted by colony stimu...
متن کاملLeucocyte proliferation in the bovine corpus luteum.
Leucocytes vary in type and number during the lifespan of a corpus luteum. The aim of this study was to determine whether there is an increase in the number of lymphocytes and macrophages as a result of local proliferation. Bovine corpora lutea were classified into stages of development, secretion and regression. A new double immunolabelling method was established for nuclear Ki-67 antigen (a m...
متن کاملLeucocyte classification for leukaemia detection using image processing techniques
INTRODUCTION The counting and classification of blood cells allow for the evaluation and diagnosis of a vast number of diseases. The analysis of white blood cells (WBCs) allows for the detection of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), a blood cancer that can be fatal if left untreated. Currently, the morphological analysis of blood cells is performed manually by skilled operators. However, this...
متن کاملRoles of Rho GTPases in leucocyte and leukaemia cell transendothelial migration.
Leucocytes migrate into and out of blood vessels at multiple points during their development and maturation, and during immune surveillance. In response to tissue damage and infection, they are rapidly recruited through the endothelium lining blood vessels into the tissues. Leukaemia cells also move in and out of the bloodstream during leukaemia progression. Rho GTPases are intracellular signal...
متن کاملDifferential leucocyte alkaline phosphatase activity (LAPA) in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) and myeloid leukemoid reaction (MLR).
Leucocyte Alkaline Phosphatase Activity (LAPA) in normal healthy individuals was lound to be in the range 17-110. It was markedly increased in patients with myeloid leukemoid reaction (MLR) in the range 100-220. However it was decreased in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) in the range 0-16. Increased LAPA in MLR is indicative of enhanced digestive capability of neutrophils while de...
