Cell markers in the recognition of acute myeloblastic leukaemia subtypes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The diagnosis of acute myeloblastic leukaemia (AML) is based on cell morphology, cytogenetic and molecular changes, cell markers and clinical data. Our aim was to establish whether morphology and cell markers are comparable in the evaluation of AML. Bone marrow smears were analysed, and flow cytometry and monoclonal antibodies were used to determine cell type and maturity. Morphology and cell markers correlated differently in different AML subtypes.

Biphenotypic leukaemia: a case of mixed T lymphoblastic and myeloblastic leukaemia.
A case of mixed acute leukaemia with T lymphoblastic, myeloblastic, and monocytic components is described. The use of immunological markers, ultrastructural morphology, cytochemistry, immunochemistry, and combined techniques, simultaneously detecting two markers in individual cells, made it possible to define the different blast cell populations.

The study included 1742 patients with acute myeloblastic leukaemias (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukaemias (ALL), Kyiv city residents and patients from 20 regions of Ukraine. Bone marrow and blood smears were sent at diagnosis to Reference Center. The analysis was based on May-Grünvald-Giemza (MGG) stain and cytochemical reactions (MPO, acNSE, CAE, AP, PAS). Immunocytochemical techniques (APA...
متن کاملAntineoplastic Effect of Fenugreek (Trigonella Foenum Graecum) Seed Extract against Acute Myeloblastic Leukemia Cell Line (KG-1)
Background: Treatment of cancer patients using conventional chemotherapy causes serious side effects and, at best, merely extends the patient’s lifespan by a few years. The potential of alternative therapies may therefore be of great benefit in cancer control. The effect of Trigonella Foenum Graecum seed extract has been previously reported on some neoplastic cells. Here, its effect is evaluate...
متن کاملExpression Profiling of Microarray Gene Signatures in Acute and Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia in Human Bone Marrow
Background Classification of cancer subtypes by means of microarray signatures is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore as a potential to transform pathological diagnosis nonetheless, measurement of Indicator genes in routine practice appears to be arduous. In a preceding published study, we utilized real-time PCR measurement of Indicator genes in acute lymphoid leukaemia (ALL) and acute m...
متن کاملPrognosis of Down's syndrome with acute leukaemia.
The outcome in children with acute leukaemia with (n = 90) and without Down's syndrome (n = 4377) was compared. Sixty three (70%) of those with Down's syndrome had acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and in comparison with 3664 (84%) controls had similar prognostic features except for a significant excess of the 'common' immunological subtype of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. The outcome of the child...
