چکیده
Cerebral malaria (CM) is the major life-threatening complication of Plasmodium falciparum infecti0n.A prominent clinical feature of human CM is increased lactate in both brain and cerebrospinal fluid, with sustained lactic acidosis being an important prognostic indicator. To investigate whether DCA, an activator of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, ameliorates lactic acidosis in the murine model of CM,Plasmodium bergheiANKA infection in CBA mice was studied in animals injected with DCA (60mg/kg)on days 5 and 6 post-inoculation (pi). On day 7 p.i. some

Range Determination of Antigen Expression in Myeloid, Erythroid and Lymphoid Cell Lineages among Patients with Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Background: Myelodysplastic syndrome is a mixed clonal disorder of bone marrow progenitor cells. Understanding the pattern of the different lineage-specific, immature, and mature markers in myelodysplastic syndrome will help in setting-up the frame of reference to diagnose. Patients and Methods: We compared 60 bone marrow samples from 30 newly-diagnosed patients with myelodysplastic syndrome ...

Background: Pancytopenia is a manifestation of a wide range of disorders. The main prognostic factor for predicting outcome and response to treatment is based on the underlying cause. To detect the root cause of this problem, depending on other accompanied signs or symptoms, the need for bone marrow examination and other advanced work ups is different at least at the practical level. This study...

Although aplastic anemia (AA) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) are separate entities with different management, distinction between the two can be difficult on morphological basis due to hypocellularity of bone marrow. MDS is one of the serious complications of AA. Karyotyping is definitive in the diagnosis of MDS. Better and robust investigations like 18F-Fluoro-deoxy-Glucose Posi...
متن کاملOptimization of culture conditions for bone marrow stromal cells in RPMI-1640 medium.
UNLABELLED Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are important for both research and clinical purpose. A number of culture methods for these cells are available on the market, many of them consisting of specialized growing media in combination with growth factors. Our goal was to optimize a less expensive culture method for bone marrow mesenchymal cells. MATERIAL AND METHODS Eight samples of bon...
متن کاملHEMOPHAGOCYTIC SYNDROME IN TYPHOID FEVER AND BRUCELLOSIS
Hemophagocytic syndrome is a non-malignant process that is characterized clinically by fever, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, pancytopenia in peripheral blood, and reactive histiocytes in the bone marrow. Bacterial infectious diseases like typhoid fever and brucellosis and viral infections including CMV, herpes viruses, and Epstein-Barr virus are diagnosed as the cause of this syndrome. In thi...
متن کاملGene Expression and Methylation Pattern in HRK Apoptotic Gene in Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs) are a clonal bone marrow (BM) disease characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, dysplastic maturation and progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Methylation silencing of HRK has been found in several human malignancies. In this study, we explored the association of HRK methylation status with its expression, clinical parameters and MDS subtypes in MDS pa...
