Histamine can be recovered from the blood of ragweed-sensitized dogs after aerosol antigen challenge, although its source is unknown. Neutrophils and eosinophils have been recovered from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) obtained under identical conditions. We investigated the time course of changes in histamine levels in plasma and BALF taken from ragweed-sensitized dogs after aerosol challenge. Changes in the numbers of circulating neutrophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, and platelets were also studied. After 3 min, total pulmonary resistance (RL) was maximally increased and systolic blood pressure was maximally decreased. Histamine levels in plasma and BALF were increased and circulating eosinophils and neutrophils were decreased. After 15 min, platelet numbers were reduced. By 90 min, changes in RL, blood pressure, plasma and BALF histamine concentrations, and circulating neutrophils and eosinophils had returned to base-line values, but platelet numbers remained significantly decreased. Sham challenge caused no significant changes in any of these variables. Intravenous administration of histamine in doses large enough to attain plasma levels comparable with those achieved after aerosol antigen challenge resulted in no concomitant rise in BALF histamine levels. We conclude that antigen challenge in sensitized dogs causes increases in BALF and plasma histamine levels and is associated with a reduction in circulating neutrophils, eosinophils, and platelets. It is likely that antigen causes airway mast cells to release mediators that move down a concentration gradient from the airways to the pulmonary circulation. 相似文献

Our study was aimed to characterize the phenotype and functional endpoints of local microwave hyperthermia (LHT, 42 degrees C) on tumor infiltrating and spleen leukocytes. The effectiveness of LHT applied into the tumor of B16F10 melanoma-bearing C57/BL6 mice was compared with anesthetized and non-treated animals. Subpopulations of leukocytes were analyzed using the flow cytometry, and the cytotoxic activity of splenocytes against syngeneic B16F10 melanoma and NK-sensitive YAC-1 tumor cell lines was evaluated in (51)Cr-release assay. Similarly, the in vitro modification of the heat treatment was performed using healthy and melanoma-bearing splenocytes. We found a 40 % increase of activated monocytes (CD11b+CD69+) infiltration into the tumor microenvironment. In the spleen of experimental animals, the numbers of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs-CD3+CD8+) and NK cell (CD49b+NK1.1+) raised by 22 % and 14 %, respectively, while the NK1.1+ monocytes decreases by 37 %. This was accompanied by an enhancement of cytotoxic effector function against B16F10 and YAC-1 targets in both in vivo and in vitro conditions. These results demonstrate that LHT induces better killing of syngeneic melanoma targets. Furthermore, LHT evokes the homing of activated monocytes into the tumor microenvironment and increases the counts of NK cells and CTL in the spleen. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DCs) regulate both innate and adaptive immune responses. In this article, we exploit the unique avascularity of the cornea to examine a role for local or very early infiltrating DCs in regulating the migration of blood-derived innate immune cells toward HSV-1 lesions. A single systemic diphtheria toxin treatment 2 d before HSV-1 corneal infection transiently depleted CD11c(+) DCs from both the cornea and lymphoid organs of CD11c-DTR bone marrow chimeric mice for up to 24 h postinfection. Transient DC depletion significantly delayed HSV-1 clearance from the cornea through 6 d postinfection. No further compromise of viral clearance was observed when DCs were continuously depleted throughout the first week of infection. DC depletion did not influence extravasation of NK cells, inflammatory monocytes, or neutrophils into the peripheral cornea, but it did significantly reduce migration of NK cells and inflammatory monocytes, but not neutrophils, toward the HSV-1 lesion in the central cornea. Depletion of NK cells resulted in similar loss of viral control to transient DC ablation. Our findings demonstrate that resident corneal DCs and/or those that infiltrate the cornea during the first 24 h after HSV-1 infection contribute to the migration of NK cells and inflammatory monocytes into the central cornea, and are consistent with a role for NK cells and possibly inflammatory monocytes, but not polymorphonuclear neutrophils, in clearing HSV-1 from the infected cornea. 相似文献

Accumulation of M2 macrophages in the liver, within the context of a strong Th2 response, is a hallmark of infection with the parasitic helminth, Schistosoma mansoni, but the origin of these cells is unclear. To explore this, we examined the relatedness of macrophages to monocytes in this setting. Our data show that both monocyte-derived and resident macrophages are engaged in the response to infection. Infection caused CCR2-dependent increases in numbers of Ly6Chi monocytes in blood and liver and of CX3CR1+ macrophages in diseased liver. Ly6Chi monocytes recovered from liver had the potential to differentiate into macrophages when cultured with M-CSF. Using pulse chase BrdU labeling, we found that most hepatic macrophages in infected mice arose from monocytes. Consistent with this, deletion of monocytes led to the loss of a subpopulation of hepatic CD11chi macrophages that was present in infected but not naïve mice. This was accompanied by a reduction in the size of egg-associated granulomas and significantly exacerbated disease. In addition to the involvement of monocytes and monocyte-derived macrophages in hepatic inflammation due to infection, we observed increased incorporation of BrdU and expression of Ki67 and MHC II in resident macrophages, indicating that these cells are participating in the response. Expression of both M2 and M1 marker genes was increased in liver from infected vs. naive mice. The M2 fingerprint in the liver was not accounted for by a single cell type, but rather reflected expression of M2 genes by various cells including macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils and monocytes. Our data point to monocyte recruitment as the dominant process for increasing macrophage cell numbers in the liver during schistosomiasis. 相似文献

Osteoclasts are essential cells for bone erosion in inflammatory arthritis and are derived from cells in the myeloid lineage. Recently, we reported that tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) increases the blood osteoclast precursor (OCP) numbers in arthritic patients and animals, which are reduced by anti-TNF therapy, implying that circulating OCPs may have an important role in the pathogenesis of erosive arthritis. The aim of this study is to investigate the mechanism by which TNFalpha induces this increase in OCP frequency. We found that TNFalpha stimulated cell division and conversion of CD11b+/Gr-1-/lo/c-Fms- to CD11b+/Gr-1-/lo/c-Fms+ cells, which was not blocked by neutralizing macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) antibody. Ex vivo analysis of monocytes demonstrated the following: (i) blood CD11b+/Gr-1-/lo but not CD11b-/Gr-1- cells give rise to osteoclasts when they were cultured with receptor activator NF-kappaB ligand and M-CSF; and (ii) TNF-transgenic mice have a significant increase in blood CD11b+/Gr-1-/lo cells and bone marrow proliferating CD11b+/Gr-1-/lo cells. Administration of TNFalpha to wild type mice induced bone marrow CD11b+/Gr-1-/lo cell proliferation, which was associated with an increase in CD11b+/Gr-1-/lo OCPs in the circulation. Thus, TNFalpha directly stimulates bone marrow OCP genesis by enhancing c-Fms expression. This results in progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation in response to M-CSF, leading to an enlargement of the marrow OCP pool. Increased marrow OCPs subsequently egress to the circulation, forming a basis for elevated OCP frequency. Therefore, the first step of TNF-induced osteoclastogenesis is at the level of OCP genesis in the bone marrow, which represents another layer of regulation to control erosive disease. 相似文献

Immune responses are pathologically sustained in several common diseases, including asthma. To determine endogenous proresolving mechanisms for adaptive immune responses, we used a murine model of self-limited allergic airway inflammation. After cessation of allergen exposure, eosinophils and T cells were cleared concomitant with the appearance of increased numbers of NK cells in the lung and mediastinal lymph nodes. The mediastinal lymph node NK cells were activated, expressing CD27, CD11b, CD69, CD107a, and IFN-γ. NK cell depletion disrupted the endogenous resolution program, leading to delayed clearance of airway eosinophils and Ag-specific CD4(+) T cells. NK cell trafficking to inflamed tissues for resolution was dependent upon CXCR3 and CD62L. During resolution, eosinophils and Ag-specific CD4(+) T cells expressed NKG2D ligands, and a blocking Ab for the NKG2D receptor delayed clearance of these leukocytes. Of interest, NK cells expressed CMKLR1, a receptor for the proresolving mediator resolvin E1, and depletion of NK cells decreased resolvin E1-mediated resolution of allergic inflammation. Resolvin E1 regulated NK cell migration in vivo and NK cell cytotoxicity in vitro. Together, these findings indicate new functions in catabasis for NK cells that can also serve as targets for proresolving mediators in the resolution of adaptive immunity. 相似文献

Developing thymocytes undergo a rigorous selection process to ensure that the mature T cell population expresses a T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire that can functionally interact with major histocompatibility complexes (MHC). Over 90% of thymocytes fail this selection process and die. A small number of macrophages within the thymus are responsible for clearing the large number of dying thymocytes that must be continuously cleared. We studied the capacity of thymic macrophages to clear apoptotic cells under acute circumstances. This was done by synchronously inducing cell death in the thymus and then monitoring the clearance of apoptotic thymocytes. Interestingly, acute cell death was shown to recruit large numbers of CD11b+ cells into the thymus. In the absence of a minor CSF-1 dependent population of macrophages, the recruitment of these CD11b+ cells into the thymus was greatly reduced and the clearance of apoptotic cells was disrupted. To assess a possible role for the CD11b+ cells in the clearance of apoptotic cells, we analyzed mice deficient for eosinophils and mice with defective trafficking of neutrophils. Failure to attract either eosinophils or neutrophils to the thymus resulted in the impaired clearance of apoptotic cells. These results suggested that there is crosstalk between cells of the innate immune system that is necessary for maximizing the efficiency of apoptotic cell removal. 相似文献

CD11c+ eosinophils in the murine thymus: developmental regulation and recruitment upon MHC class I-restricted thymocyte deletion 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Eosinophils are bone marrow-derived cells released into the circulation during hypersensitivity reactions and parasitic infections. Under normal conditions most eosinophils are tissue bound, where their physiologic role is unclear. During in situ analysis of the thymic microenvironment for CD11c+ dendritic cell subpopulations (APC critical in the process of thymic negative selection) a discrete population of CD11b/CD11c double-positive cells concentrated in the cortico-medullary region of young mice was detected. Thymic CD11c+ cells were isolated, and the CD11b+ subpopulation (CD44high, class IIlow, CD11cint) was identified as mature eosinophils based on: scatter characteristics, major basic protein mRNA expression, and eosinophilic granules. They are hypodense, release high levels of superoxide anion, and express CD25, CD69, and mRNA for IL-4 and IL-13, but not GM-CSF or IL-5, suggesting a distinct state of activation. Thymic eosinophils are preferentially recruited during the neonatal period; absolute numbers increased 10-fold between 7-14 days to reach parity with dendritic cells before diminishing. In a model of acute negative selection, eosinophil numbers were increased 2-fold 6 h after cognate peptide injection into MHC class I-restricted female H-Y TCR transgenic mice. In both peptide-treated female and negatively selecting male H-Y TCR mice, clusters of apoptotic bodies were associated with eosinophils throughout the thymus. Our data demonstrate a temporal and spatial association between eosinophil recruitment and class I-restricted selection in the thymus, suggesting an immunomodulatory role for eosinophils under nonpathological conditions. 相似文献

CD11b and CD11c antigens are rapidly increased on human natural killer cells upon activation. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A brief incubation with PMA or other secretagogues has been reported to enhance the expression of C3 receptors on myeloid cells. We now observed increases up to threefold in the expression of the CD11b/CD18 Ag (CR3) and the CD11c/CD18 (CR4, p150,95) Ag after 30-min incubation with PMA on a subpopulation of PBL. The majority of these cells was CD56+ and CD16+. Isolated NK cells retained their ability to respond to PMA with increased CD11b and CD11c membrane Ag expression. Preincubation of the cells with cycloheximide did not abrogate the effects of PMA. Other membrane molecules on lymphocytes (CD11a, CD35, CD45, CD45R0, CD56) were not modulated by PMA. Purified C5a, FMLP, or LPS increased CR3 on myeloid cells but not on lymphocytes. In contrast, cell activation by K562 cells led to an augmentation of the CD11b Ag expression on CD56+ lymphocytes but not on other lymphocytes or monocytes. This increase was inhibitable by CD11a mAb. Rapid increases of CD11b and CD11c Ag on the membrane of NK cells may be of biologic significance because many functions have been attributed to these molecules. 相似文献

17beta-estradiol alters the activity of conventional and IFN-producing killer dendritic cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Estrogens increase aspects of innate immunity and contribute to sex differences in the prevalence of autoimmune diseases and in response to infection. The goal of the present study was to assess whether exposure to 17beta-estradiol (E2) affects the development and function of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells and to determine whether similar changes are observed in CD11c(+) splenocytes exposed to E2 in vivo. E2 facilitated the differentiation of BM precursor cells into functional CD11c(+)CD11b(+)MHC class II(+) dendritic cells (DCs) with increased expression of the costimulatory molecules CD40 and CD86. Exposure of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells to E2 also enhanced production of IL-12 in response to the TLR ligands, CpG and LPS. In contrast, CD11c(+) cells isolated from the spleens of female C57BL/6 mice that were intact, ovariectomized, or ovariectomized with E2 replacement exhibited no differences in the number or activity of CD11c(+)CD11b(+)MHC class II(+) DCs. The presence of E2 in vivo, however, increased the number of CD11c(+)CD49b(+)NK1.1(low) cells and reduced numbers of CD11c(+)CD49b(+)NK1.1(high) cells, a surface phenotype for IFN-producing killer DCs (IKDCs). Ultrastructural analysis demonstrated that CD11c(+)NK1.1(+) populations were comprised of cells that had the appearance of both DCs and IKDCs. CD11c(+) splenocytes isolated from animals with supplemental E2 produced more IFN-gamma in response to IL-12 and IL-18. These data illustrate that E2 has differential effects on the development and function of DCs and IKDCs and provide evidence that E2 may strengthen innate immunity by enhancing IFN-gamma production by CD11c(+) cells. 相似文献

Little information is available regarding the role of circulating leukocytes in the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis (AP). Our aim was to explore the time-course of the potential role of inflammatory peripheral blood (PB) cells during AP induced in rats by pancreatic duct obstruction (PDO). Flow cytometry immunophenotyping was used to analyse the distribution of the major circulating leukocyte subsets, the activation state of circulating monocytes as reflected by both CD11b expression and TNF-α production and the relative contribution of T-cell derived pro- (TNF-α) and anti- (IL-10) inflammatory mediators at different stages of PDO-induced AP. A progressive increase in PB neutrophils and monocytes was observed up to 6 h after PDO whereas lymphocytes, as well as CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell subsets, rose as early as 1.5 h after PDO and decreased thereafter. Monocytes were activated in PB from 6 h after inducing AP as reflected by increases in both CD11b expression and spontaneous TNF-α production; nevertheless, they showed the capability of producing TNF-α at earlier AP stages by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. In contrast, T-cells were unable to produce TNF-α during AP neither spontaneously nor after stimulation with PMA/Ionomycin. Therefore, only PB monocytes contribute to increase TNF-α levels in plasma as observed from 12 h onwards after inducing AP. Interleukin-10 was produced by T-cells 6 h after PDO only after PMA/Ionomycin stimulation. We conclude that systemic inflammatory events are triggered off at early stages of PDO-induced AP, with the activation of circulating monocytes, though not T-cells, playing a central role. 相似文献

Active episodes of the inflammatory bowel diseases are associated with the infiltration of large numbers of myeloid cells including neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages. The objective of this study was to systematically characterize and define the different populations of myeloid cells generated in a mouse model of chronic gut inflammation. Using the T cell transfer model of chronic colitis, we found that induction of disease was associated with enhanced production of myelopoietic cytokines (IL-17 and G-CSF), increased production of neutrophils and monocytes, and infiltration of large numbers of myeloid cells into the mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) and colon. Detailed characterization of these myeloid cells revealed three major populations including Mac-1(+)Ly6C(high)Gr-1(low/neg) cells (monocytes), Mac-1(+)Ly6C(int)Gr-1(+) cells (neutrophils), and Mac-1(+)Ly6C(low/neg)Gr-1(low/neg) leukocytes (macrophages, dendritic cells, and eosinophils). In addition, we observed enhanced surface expression of MHC class II and CD86 on neutrophils isolated from the inflamed colon when compared with neutrophils obtained from the blood, the MLNs, and the spleen of colitic mice. Furthermore, we found that colonic neutrophils had acquired APC function that enabled these granulocytes to induce proliferation of OVA-specific CD4(+) T cells in an Ag- and MHC class II-dependent manner. Finally, we observed a synergistic increase in proinflammatory cytokine and chemokine production following coculture of T cells with neutrophils in vitro. Taken together, our data suggest that extravasated neutrophils acquire APC function within the inflamed bowel where they may perpetuate chronic gut inflammation by inducing T cell activation and proliferation as well as by enhancing production of proinflammatory mediators. 相似文献

We previously reported the requirement of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) expression by cells other than T and natural killer (NK) cells in the brain, in addition to T cells, for prevention of toxoplasmic encephalitis following infection with Toxoplasma gondii. In the present study, we analysed the identity of the IFN-gamma-producing non-T, non-NK cells in the brain using infected athymic nude and SCID mice that lack T cells but express IFN-gamma in their brains. Intracellular staining for IFN-gamma followed by flow cytometry revealed that approximately 45-60% of the cells expressing IFN-gamma in their brains were positive for CD11b or F4/80 on their surfaces. Smaller portions of the cells were positive for pan-NK marker. Further smaller portions were positive for CD11c, and these cells were less than 5% of the IFN-gamma-expressing cells in brains of infected SCID mice. In addition to IFN-gamma proteins, large amounts of mRNA for IFN-gamma were detected in CD11b+ cells purified from brains of infected mice, but it was not the case in the cells obtained from uninfected animals. In infected SCID mice depleted of NK cells by treatment with anti-asialo-GM1 antibody, cells expressing IFN-gamma in their brains were all positive for CD11b, and the IFN-gamma-producing cells were detected in both CD45low and CD45high populations. These results suggest that CD11b+ CD45low microglia and CD11b+ CD45high blood-derived macrophages are the major non-T, non-NK cells which express IFN-gamma in the brain of mice infected with T. gondii. 相似文献

It has been speculated that a soluble form of G-CSFR might be physiologically present in humans, since G-CSFR mRNA that lacks a transmembrane domain has been identified from a human myelomonocytic cell line. Here, we demonstrate human soluble G-CSFR (sG-CSFR) of two different molecular sizes (80 and 85 kDa) on an immunoblot analysis using Abs generated against the amino-terminal, extracellular domain of the full-length G-CSFR. Both isoforms of sG-CSFR were able to bind recombinant human G-CSF (rhG-CSF). RT-PCR analysis with primers targeted outside of the transmenbrane region revealed that membrane-anchored G-CSFR is expressed at all maturation stages of purified myeloid cells, including CD34+CD13+ cells (blasts), CD11b-CD15+ cells (promyelocytes or myelocytes), CD11b+CD15+ cells (metamyelocytes and mature neutrophils), and CD14+ cells (monocytes). On the other hand, sG-CSFR mRNA was detectable in CD11b-CD15+, CD11b+CD15+, and CD14+ cells, but not in the CD34+CD13+ blast population. The serum concentration of both isoforms of sG-CSFR appeared to be correlated with the numbers of neutrophils/monocytes before and after rhG-CSF treatment in normal individuals. Thus, two isoforms of sG-CSFR are physiologically secreted from relatively mature myeloid cells and might play an important role in myelopoiesis through their binding to serum G-CSF. 相似文献

To assess the combined role of G-CSF, GM-CSF, and M-CSF in myeloid cell production, mice deficient in all three myeloid CSFs were generated (G-/-GM-/-M-/- mice). G-/-GM-/-M-/- mice share characteristics found in mice lacking individual cytokines: they are toothless and osteopetrotic and furthermore acquire alveolar proteinosis that is more severe than that found in either GM-/- or G-/-GM-/- mice. G-/-GM-/-M-/- mice have a significantly reduced lifespan, which is prolonged by antibiotic administration, suggesting compromised ability to control bacterial infection. G-/-GM-/-M-/- mice have circulating neutrophils and monocytes, albeit at significantly reduced numbers compared with wild-type mice, but surprisingly, have more circulating monocytes than M-/- mice and more circulating neutrophils than G-/-GM-/- mice. Due to severe osteopetrosis, G-/-GM-/-M-/- mice show diminished numbers of myeloid cells, myeloid progenitors, and B lymphocytes in the bone marrow, but have significantly enhanced compensatory splenic hemopoiesis. Although G-/-GM-/-M-/- mice have a profound deficiency of myeloid cells in the resting peritoneal cavity, the animals mount a moderate cellular response in a model of sterile peritonitis. These data establish that in the absence of G-CSF, GM-CSF, and M-CSF, additional growth factor(s) can stimulate myelopoiesis and acute inflammatory responses. 相似文献

Francisella tularensis is a gram-negative intracellular bacterium that has been classified as a Category A biothreat because of its ability to induce deadly pneumonic tularemia when inhaled. In the present study, an experimental model of F. tularensis LVS intranasal infection was used to study the immune cells involved in cytokine secretion in the lungs after infection. Dramatic increases in the numbers of cells secreting IFN-gamma were observed 72 h after intranasal infection of BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice with sublethal (1000 CFU) or lethal (10,000 CFU) doses of F. tularensis LVS and the cells primarily responsible for this IFN-gamma expression were identified as CD11b+ DX5+ NK cells. The findings were further confirmed in C57BL/6 mice showing that cells responsible for IFN-gamma secretion in the lungs were CD11b+ DX5+ NK1.1+. NK cell depletion studies showed a decrease in the percentage of IFN-gamma secreting cells, due not only to a diminished proportion of IFN-gamma secreting NK cells, but also to a reduced percentage of T cells secreting IFN-gamma. The results indicate that IFN-gamma is secreted in response to respiratory infection with F. tularensis LVS, and that NK cells are the early responders responsible for IFN-gamma secretion. 相似文献

ObjectivesSignal regulatory protein‐alpha (SIRPα) is a transmembrane glycoprotein specifically expressed on myeloid cells. Blockade of SIRPα/CD47 interaction is effective in combinational therapy of some cancers. This study aimed to explore into the role and underlying molecular mechanisms of SIRPα in lung cancer growth.Materials and MethodsA mouse model with lung cancer in wild‐type (WT) and SIRPα‐knockout mouse (KO) mice was established by subcutaneous injection of Lewis murine lung cancer cells (LLC). Circulating monocytes and neutrophils were depleted in mice by intraperitoneal administration of clodronate liposomes and anti‐Ly6G antibody, respectively. Phenotypes and phagocytosis of macrophages and neutrophils were analysed by flow cytometry. Transwell assay was used to analyse LLC cells migration and invasion.ResultsLack of SIRPα inhibited LLC cells growth in KO mice, associated with reduced infiltrating PD‐1+CD8+ T cells and production of IL‐6 from infiltrating macrophages and neutrophils in tumour tissues. Depletion of circulating monocytes and neutrophils reduced LLC cells growth in WT mice, which was abolished in KO mice. Studies in vitro showed that lack of SIRPα increased M1/M2 ratio, and reduced LLC cell migration and invasion via attenuated IL‐6 secretion. Lack of SIRPα expression in neutrophils effectively increased the cytotoxic activity to LLC cells in vitro.ConclusionsLack of SIRPα suppressed lung cancer cell growth in mice, dependent on circulating macrophages and neutrophils, in association with improved phagocytosis and reduced IL‐6 expression.Targeting SIRPα alone was qualified to inhibit LLC growth. SIRPα inhibits macrophages and neutrophils phagocytosis. Tumour‐derived mediators induce M2 cell polarisation, IL‐6 expression in macrophages and neutrophils through SIRPα/SHP‐1/p38 MAPK/STAT3 signalling. IL‐6 induces epithelial–mesenchymal transition of LLC cells and PD‐1 expression in CD8+ T cells. 相似文献

Electronic white blood cell (WBC) differential by standard cytology (hematology analyzer and visual inspection of blood smears) is limited to five types and identification of abnormal cells is only qualitative, often problematic, poorly reproducible, and labour costing. We present our results on WBC differential by flow cytometry (FCM) with a 6 markers, 5 colors CD36-FITC/CD2-PE+CRTH2-PE/CD19-ECD/CD16-Cy5/CD45-Cy7 combination, on 379 subjects, with detection of 12 different circulating cell types, among them 11 were quantified. Detection of quantitative abnormalities of whole leucocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, monocytes, or lymphocytes was comparable by FCM and by standard cytology in terms of sensitivity and specificity. FCM was better than standard cytology in detection and quantification of circulating blast cells or immature granulocytes, with a first lineage orientation in the former case. All cases of lymphocytosis, with lineage assignment, were detected by FCM. FCM identified a group of patients with excess of CD16pos monocytes as those having an inflammatory syndrome. WBC differential by FCM is at least as reliable as by standard cytology. FCM superiority consists in identification and systematic quantification of parameters that cannot be assessed by standard cytology such as lineage orientation of blast cells or lymphocytes, and expression of markers of interest such as CD16 on inflammatory monocytes. 相似文献
