Immunophenotype of Normal and Myelomatous Plasma-Cell Subsets
Plasma cells (PCs) are essentially characterized by the co-expression of CD138 and CD38, which allows their identification in flow cytometry in bone marrow (BM), peripheral blood, or cell suspensions from tissues. These terminally differentiated B-cells may lose the expression of surface CD19 and that of CD20 while retaining CD27. When malignant, they can gain a number of other markers such as ...
متن کاملPlasma Cell Neoplasms, Clinicopathological Characteristics and Immunophenotype of 21 Patients
Introduction: Plasma cell neoplasms are monoclonal proliferations characterized by the secretion of an immunoglobulin product known as component “M” or monoclonal. The World Health Organization (WHO 2008) defines as plasma cell neoplasms the following: plasma cell myeloma, plasmacytoma and those syndromes defined by immunoglobulin deposits and primary amyloidosis, The objective of the present w...
متن کاملMeningeal infiltration by non-myelomatous IgD-secreting plasma cell dyscrasias.
Two cases of meningeal invasion by non-myelomatous plasma cell dyscrasias--a plasma cell leukaemia and an extramedullary plasmacytoma--are described. Both were secretors of IgD paraprotein and both were diagnosed in life, characteristics which we have not found in any other published case of plasma cell leptomeningitis. Analysis of our patients and of another 25 cases suggests as predisposing f...
متن کاملEffect of Plasma Viremia on Apoptosis and Immunophenotype of Dendritic Cells Subsets in Acute SIVmac239 Infection of Chinese Rhesus Macaques
Non-human primates such as Chinese rhesus macaques (Ch Rhs) provide good animal models for research on human infectious diseases. Similar to humans, there are two principal subsets of dendritic cells (DCs) in the peripheral blood of Ch Rhs: myeloid DCs (mDCs) and plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs). In this study, two-color fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analyses were used to identify the main ...
متن کاملNormal lymphocyte immunophenotype in an elderly population
OBJECTIVE The aim of this work was to evaluate the lymphocyte immunophenotype in an elderly population. METHODS This study enrolled 35 over 60-year-old volunteers and a control group composed of 35 young adults. The study included elderly without diseases that might affect the functioning of the immune system. These individuals were consulted by doctors and after a physical examination, labor...
