Cytoenzymatical Differentiation of Normal and Neoplastic Plasma Cells.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A histochemical method is described of differentiating between normal and neoplastic cells in plasma using the activity of various enzymes characteristic of plasma cells. It was found that in both types of cell increased or diminished activity of cytoenzymes is a useful means of distinguishing between normal and abnormal cells.

The interleukin-6 receptor alpha-chain (CD126) is expressed by neoplastic but not normal plasma cells.
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is reported to be central to the pathogenesis of myeloma, inducing proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis in neoplastic plasma cells. Therefore, abrogating IL-6 signaling is of therapeutic interest, particularly with the development of humanized anti-IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) antibodies. The use of such antibodies clinically requires an understanding of IL-6R expression on neop...
متن کاملLack of effect of plasma of myocardial preconditioned, ischemic and ischemic-reperfused rats of myocardium on differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into cardiomyocytes
Introduction: Numerous studies have shown that enriched plasma protects myocardial cells against ischemia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of rat enriched plasma by preconditioning, ischemia, and reperfusion on the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSC) into cardiomyocytes. Methods: In this experimental and laboratory study, BMMSCs were extracted from th...
متن کاملB cell Therapy to Treat an Axonal Neuropathy in Mixed Connective Tissue Disease
The B cell is a vital contributor to humoral immunity. The B cell-specific antigen CD20 is expressed during B cell development, starting at the pre-B cell level and persists through B cell differentiation, but is lost during terminal differentiation to plasma cells. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody that destroys both normal and malignant B cells that have CD20 on their surfaces and is ther...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma on Proliferation and Differentiation of Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells with or without Ga-Al-As Laser
Background Recently, the clinical use of low power lasers has increased, and it is said that wound healing is accelerated by their irradiation. The aim of this study was evaluation of the effect of platelet-rich plasma on proliferation and differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells with or without Ga-Al-As laser. Methods: In this experimental study, human lower third molar dental pulp c...
متن کاملCleaved variant of plasmacytoma with myelomonocytic differentiation--immunohistochemical and ultrastructural studies.
Although plasma cells are terminally differentiated B cells, neoplastic plasma cells frequently express not only pre-B cell antigen, but also megakaryocytic, myelomonocytic, or erythroid markers. Since morphologic diagnosis of plasmacytoma is based on the recognition of neoplastic cells closely resembling normal plasma cells, unusual morphologic variants of neoplastic cells associated with thes...
