Abnormal lipoproteins in multiple myelomatosis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In a study of the lipoprotein pattern in multiple myelomatosis electrophoresis on agarose gel showed abnormal lipoproteins, named paralipoproteins (p-Lp), in 24 out of 30 normolipidaemic patients. These paralipoproteins were grouped according to their mobility into one or another of the following types: (1) p-Lp1 with a mobility identical with that of gamma-globulin, (2) p-Lp2 with a mobility between that of beta- and gamma-globulin, (3) p-Lp3 with a mobility identical with that of beta-globulin. On ultracentrifugation the abnormal lipoproteins were found to have a density above 1-063 g/ml.

Factors influencing the prognosis in myelomatosis.
One hundred and eighty-eight patients with myelomatosis, 166 of whom had multiple myelomatosis, were studied to assess the prognostic significance of age, sex, mode of clinical presentation, presence of anaemia, azotaemia and abnormal cells in the peripheral blood at the time of diagnosis. The generalized disease was rapidly fatal in many of these unselected patients. Women survived longer than...

During the next decade electrophoretic analyses o...

The mean level of B-lipoprotein in untreated patients with multiple myelomatosis and macroglobulinaemia was significantly lower than that of the controls. Patients who respond...

A case is described of a 59-year-old woman presenting with multiple renal tubular defects. The aminoaciduria was of a generalized type. When investigated initially the only feature of myelomatosis was urinary Bence-Jones protein. Two years later radiologically classical multiple myelomatosis developed and rapidly progressed to the patient's death nine months later.
متن کاملThe differentiation of myelomatosis from other causes of bone marrow plasmacytosis.
The proportion of plasma cells in aspirates of bone marrow is occasionally increased in conditions other than myelomatosis (Bing, 1940; Bayrd, 1948; Fadem and McBirnie, 1950; Fadem, 1952; Bessis, 1956). In cases of this sort (the so-called " plasmacytic response "), one may see immature cells, sometimes in clumps, cytoplasmic vacuolation, multinucleated cells, and degenerative changes of differ...
