Leukemoid reaction associated with diabetic ketoacidosis--with measurement of plasma levels of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor.

چکیده
A 40-year-old man with diabetic ketoacidosis showed marked leukocytosis reaching 60,970/mm3 which subsided within 5 days to a level of 4,140/mm3. He had no evidence of infection. During the entire clinical course, no elevation of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) was observed. No case of leukemoid reaction associated with diabetic ketoacidosis has been reported with the determination of plasma G-CSF levels.

CONTEXT The presentation of pancreatic cancer with a leukemoid reaction is rare with no prior reports in the English language literature. CASE REPORT We report a case of advanced pancreatic cancer presenting with leukemoid reaction. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor levels were normal while interleukin-6 was elevated. The patient had no...
متن کاملLeukemoid reaction and autocrine growth of bladder cancer induced by paraneoplastic production of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor – a potential neoplastic marker: a case report and review of the literature
INTRODUCTION Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor produced by nonhematopoietic malignant cells is able to induce a leukemoid reaction by excessive stimulation of leukocyte production. Expression of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and its functional receptors have been confirmed in bladder cancer cells. In vitro studies have demonstrated that granulocyte colony-stimulating factor/receptor...

Two dogs with generalized seizures were evaluated. The dogs were diagnosed with traumatic intracranial hemorrhages based on the history, neurological examinations, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain. Treatment was started with oxygen, prednisolone and anticonvulsant agents. No further seizure activity was observed after treatment in both dogs, however cushing reflex was detected ...

Introduction Genetic background has known to be associated with the outcome of human T cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) type I infection. In The present study we investigate the association between GM-CSF gene polymorphisms with the outcome of HTLV-I infection. Materials and Methods We analyzed 3 single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the promter region of granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating...

Background: Recent studies have shown that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have a putative ability to promote neurogenesis and produce behavioral and functional improvement. Our previous study demonstrated that co-treatment of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and BMSCs have beneficial effects on Parkinson's models. The main purpose of this research was to investigate the...
