Aberrant positivity for CD79a in erythroid lineage cells--a finding observed in a subset of re-staging bone marrow trephine biopsies after treatment cell pain.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aberrant expression of CD79a has been reported in neoplastic cells in peripheral T cell lymphoma, T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and acute myeloid leukemia (especially those with t(8;21)). In this report, we document the first report of CD79a positivity in erythroid precursor cells in bone marrow. In all, we document this finding in five of 18 re-staging bone marrow trephine samples in patients of lymphoma treated with chemotherapy (one index case and 17 additional validation cases). It is important to appreciate this finding especially in rituximab treated patients where one tends to rely on CD79a to identify minimal marrow disease.

Differentiation of Mouse Yolk Sac Cells to Erythroid Cells in The Presence of Erythropoietin
Purpose: Yolk sac hematopoietic stem cells (YS-HSC) have two dominant characteristices: a larger reproductive capacity and the absence of the expression of MHC associated antigens. Therefore, these cells are promising candidates for transplantation, cell therapy and gene manipulation. There are controversial reports on the effects of erythropoietin (EPO) on the differentiation of yolk sac cells...
متن کاملImmunophenotyping of acute lymphoblastic leukemia using immunohistochemistry in bone marrow biopsy specimens.
Flow cytometry is the preferred method of diagnosing and immunophenotyping acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). However, there are situations in which immunohistochemical staining (IH) of bone marrow trephine biopsy specimens can be used to provide immunophenotypic information. To evaluate the use of IH and to confirm its value in diagnosing and typing of ALL, we studied 50 cases of denovo ALL t...

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 The National Cancer Institute has recommended a bone marrow biopsy length of >/=20 mm for the staging and surveillance of patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. However, there are few published data to support this recommendation, particularly the role of examining multiple levels. PATIENTS AND METHODS Bone marrow biopsies from 172 patients with newly diagnosed diffuse large cell ly...
