Effects of Recombinant a and ‘y Interferons on the In Vitro Growth of Circulating Hematopoietic Progenitor Cells (CFU-GEMM, CFU-Mk, BFU-E, and CFU-GM) From Patients With Myelofibrosis With Myeloid Metaplasia
Myeloflbrosis with myeloid metaplasia (MMM) is a chronic myeloproliferative disorder due to clonal expansion of a pluripotent hematopoietic progenitor cell with secondary marrow fibrosis. No definitive treatment has as yet been devised for this condition, which shows a marked variability in clinical course. To evaluate whether excessive hematopoietic progenitor cell proliferation could be contr...
متن کاملLoss of hematopoietic progenitor cells CFU-GEMM, BFU-E, CFU-Mk, and CFU-GM in the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)?
Hematological abnormalities have been found in the majority of patients with AIDS, in addition to immunological derangements [1]. Furthermore, treatment of opportunistic infections with folic acid antagonists and of neoplasms with cytostatic drugs is frequently complicated by profound thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, and anemia, thus resulting in the withdrawal of the drugs. In the present study ...
متن کاملCirculating hematopoietic progenitor cells predict survival in patients with myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The levels of circulating hematopoietic progenitor cells are often increased in myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia (MMM). The prognostic relevance of this phenomenon is largely unknown. DESIGN AND METHODS We determined the number of circulating myeloid (CFU-GM), erythroid (BFU-E), and pluripotent (CFU-GEMM) progenitors, in 110 patients with MMM at diagnosis using ...
متن کاملRegulation of early human hematopoietic (BFU-E and CFU-GEMM) progenitor cells in vitro by interleukin 1-induced fibroblast-conditioned medium.
Stimulators of human erythroid burst-forming units (BFU-E) and multipotential colony-forming cells (CFU-GEMM) can be produced by a number of different cell types. A product of human peripheral blood monocytes, interleukin 1 (IL-1), was evaluated for its ability to stimulate fibroblast cultures to produce stimulators of human bone marrow BFU-E and CFU-GEMM colony formation. BFU-E and CFU-GEMM co...
متن کاملErythroid progenitors (BFU-e and CFU-e) in acute leukaemia.
Bone marrow erythroid progenitor cells were examined from 50 cases of acute leukaemia and from 20 normal subjects using an in vitro semisolid culture method. Numbers of both primitive erythroid progenitor cells (BFU-e) and later-stage erythroid progenitor cells (CFU-e) were remarkably depressed in patient with acute leukaemia in active phase. However, both BFU-e and CFU-e recovered to within no...
