Rapid flow cytometric test using eosin-5-maleimide for diagnosis of red blood cell membrane disorders.
Conventional diagnosis of hereditary red blood cell (RBC) membrane disorders, in particular hereditary spherocytosis (HS), is labor intensive, time consuming and requires at least 2 ml of blood, which might be impractical in neonatal period. We evaluated the use of eosin-5-maleimide (EMA), a dye that reacts covalently with lysine-430 on the first extracellular loop of band 3 protein, for rapid ...
متن کاملRapid enumeration of T lymphocytes by a flow-cytometric immunofluorescence method.
Combined with current advances in microprocessor-controlled flow cytometers, monoclonal antibodies provide a rapid means of phenotyping individual cell surface markers for a large number of clinical samples accurately and reproducibly, which may provide useful information in diagnosing disease and monitoring patients. We have developed a one-step flow-cytometric immunofluorescence procedure for...
متن کاملFlow cytometric enumeration of drug-resistant tumor cells.
In an attempt to elucidate the role of somatic mutation in the development of resistance to cancer chemotherapy, an assay was sought to measure the frequency of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) mutants in human tumors. Based on the same principle as [3H]thymidine/autoradiography, a method was developed to identify cell proliferation using the thymidine analog 5-bromo-2'-deo...
متن کاملNucleated red blood cells in the fetus and newborn.
Although nucleated red blood cells (nRBCs) are rarely found circulating in older children, they are commonly seen in the blood of newborns. They are primarily produced in the fetal bone marrow in response to erythropoietin and are stored in the marrow as precursors to reticulocytes and mature erythrocytes. Many acute and chronic stimuli cause increases in the number of circulating nRBCs from ei...
متن کاملInvestigation of Changes in Nucleated Red Blood Cells in Neonatal Infection
Background: Early diagnosis is paramount to the treatment of neonatal infections. Nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) are immature erythrocytes that increase in number due to stress and hypoxia. This study was conducted to determine NRBC count in the peripheral blood and examine its significance as a marker of neonatal infection. Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 154 infants (78 ...
