A total of 32 patients suffering from acute myeloid leukaemia were initially treated with daunorubicin and cytosine arabinoside, and eight who achieved full remission were given a brief cytoreduction course of cyclophosphamide and thioguanine. Of these eight patients seven were then actively immunized with 10 irradiated allogeneic acute myeloid leukaemia cells and B.C.G. at weekly intervals. Six of these patients have survived in apparent good health for more than one year. Bone marrow changes suggestive of relapse were used as an indication for further short courses of chemotherapy, and except on single occasions in two different patients clinical relapse has been prevented. The average duration of first (bone marrow) remission appears to be comparable with the best achieved in trials using regular chemotherapy for maintenance, though criteria for determining relapse may be different. The rate of reinduction of remissions (bone marrow) in this series was high, with a subsequent increase in overall survival time. Possible explanations for the high rate of reinduction include, firstly, the effects of active immunization with specific leukaemia antigen; secondly, non-specific adjuvant effect; thirdly, avoidance of drug resistance; and, fourthly, early diagnosis of relapse by frequent bone marrow examinations.  相似文献

Summary The 24-h culture of bone marrow from patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) and acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) gave more analyzable metaphase cells and improved chromosome morphology compared with direct preparations. Culture increased the proportion of cytogenetically abnormal cells, and in six bone marrows where the direct preparation failed, a result was obtained from the cultured preparation. The culture of bone marrow from patients with APL led to the detection of clones carrying the t(15;17) that were not found in direct preparations. Such sequestered clones were not found in AML and acute myelomonocytic leukemia (AMMoL). Cultured preparations were no better than direct preparations from AMMoL.  相似文献

Pair-feeding of rats with nutritionally adequate liquid diets containing 36% of total energy either as ethanol or as additional carbohydrate (in the controls) resulted in blood ethanol concentrations similar to those observed in alcoholics. Alcohol feeding for six weeks increased the frequency of micronuclei in bone marrow erythrocytes, an index of chromosomal damage in precursor cells. This was associated with bone marrow hypoplasia and erythrocyte macrocytosis, alterations commonly found in alcoholics. By contrast, acute ethanol administration produced no changes in the bone marrow. Cytogenetic damage of stem cells could lead to alterations persisting after alcohol withdrawal beyond the life span of effector cells.  相似文献

The haematopoietic microenvironment or stroma plays a decisive role for the proliferation and differentiation of haemopoietic cells. We studied if bone marrow cells from patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute nonlymphocytic leukaemias (ANLL) are altered in their ability to form adherent stromal layer with active haemopoiesis in the Dexter liquid culture. Bone marrow cells were obtained from 24 normal volunteers, 28 patients with ANLL in different stages of the disease and 9 patients with MDS. There are no differences between the stromal layers of patients with ANLL in complete remission and those of normal volunteers after two weeks of cultivation. However, bone marrow cells from patients with ANLL before treatment and from patients in relapse formed a poor adherent stromal layer in most cases. In 6 of 9 cases we found the normal stromal grade of bone marrow cells from patients with MDS. There were qualitative differences in the nonadherent cell population between normal and ANLL patients in complete remission. In most cases we found morphologically recognizable erythroid cells after two-weeks Dexter liquid culture of bone marrow cells from patients with ANLL in complete remission, which were not seen with normal volunteers. This could be an indication of harmful effects on the balance of haematopoiesis caused by previous infiltration with leukaemic cells or/and high-dose chemotherapy.  相似文献

Ineffective erythropoiesis in acute human P. falciparum malaria   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

An analysis of erythroblast cell kinetics utilizing quantitative 14C-autoradiography has been performed in five cases of acute Plasmodium falciparum malaria prior to and, in four patients, 3 or 6 days after the onset of antimalarial therapy. Associated with no or only moderate anemia were changes of erythroblast morphology, a considerable shift in the frequency of red and white blood cell precursors in the bone marrow, and a reduced rate of erythroblast proliferation. There was a marked loss of polychromatic erythroblasts, which was smaller but still detectable during the therapeutic phase. The results provide some quantitative data on the extent of "parenchymal damage" of bone marrow and stress the impact of ineffective erythropoiesis and reduced rate of erythropoietic proliferation on the emergence of anemia in Plasmodium falciparum malaria.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the cytological changes in skin, lymph nodes, liver and bone marrow in patients with lepromatous leprosy. METHODS: Skin lesion, lymph node, liver and bone marrow aspirates were analysed. May-Grunwald-Giemsa (MGG) and Ziehl-Neelsen (Z-N) stains were employed. Comparative cytomorphology was studied. RESULTS: Twenty patients with lepromatous leprosy were studied. Lepra cells (LC) predominated in the skin aspirates of 12 patients with lepromatous leprosy (LL), lymphocytes accompanied LC in eight patients with borderline-lepromatous (BL) leprosy. Three patients of LL leprosy and two of BL leprosy in type 2 reaction additionally had numerous neutrophils. Two patterns of lymph node aspirates were seen: partial replacement with few LC in a reactive lymphoid background (10), complete replacement with either only LC or LC in a background of degenerating neutrophils (10), the latter a feature of type 2 reaction. Liver aspiration was performed in seven patients and of bone marrow in eight patients. Occasional LC were present in five liver-aspirated patients, steatosis and Kupffer cell hyperplasia in four patients, and myelopoiesis in two patients. Bone marrow smears invariably had occasional LC and a relative increase in mature plasma cells; sea-blue histiocytes were seen in six patients. CONCLUSION: Lepra cells predominated in skin and lymph node aspirates with complete replacement. In comparison, liver, bone marrow and lymph node aspirates with partial replacement were dominated by a preponderance of cells native to these organs with only few or occasional LC.  相似文献

Levels of mature lymphocytes, granulocytes, macrophages, platelets, their progenitor cells, and cytokines were monitored in the blood, marrow, and spleen during fatal or nonfatal murine malarial infections. In all four malaria models, before anemia developed, there was a lymphopenia, a rapid lymphocyte depletion in the marrow with a compensating rise in spleen lymphocytes, thrombocytopenia with increased megakaryocytic progenitor cell numbers, and monocyte increases in the bone marrow and later the spleen. The development of anemia was associated with a monocytosis and neutropenia, an increase in granulomonocytic progenitor cells in the spleen, and a reduction of spleen lymphocytes. Spleen granulocytes, monocytes, and their progenitor cells increased two- to threefold more in nonfatal than in fatal malaria and the spleen lymphocyte pool became severely depleted in fatal malaria. The data suggest that a defective effector cell response was of importance for the fatal outcome of the disease. Other than an early rise in serum macrophage colony stimulating factor levels in fatal infections, changes in levels of the regulators of these effector cells did not correlate well with the outcome of the infection.  相似文献

The kinetic changes of hemopoietic stem cells in bone marrow and spleen were compared between lethal Plasmodium berghei- and non-lethal P. yoelii 17x-infected mice. P. yoelii 17x-infected mice showed more severe splenomegaly than those infected with P. berghei. P. yoelii 17x-infected mice also showed a greater degree of sustained increase in number of multipotent hemopoietic stem cells (colony-forming units in spleen: CFU-S) and committed stem cells for granulocytes and macrophages (CFU-GM) and for erythrocytes (CFU-E) than P. berghei-infected mice. Such an increase was predominantly seen in the spleen of P. yoelii 17x-infected mice. In P. berghei-infected mice, the number of CFU-S, CFU-GM and also CFU-E only transiently increased and then decreased to a subnormal level at the late stage of infection. The proportion of cycling CFU-S was higher in P. berghei-infected mice than in P. yoelii 17x-infected mice. The IL-3 producing activity per spleen was much higher in P. yoelii 17x-infected than in P. berghei-infected mice at any point in time during the infection. Thus, hemopoietic changes seen after malaria infection seem to be closely related to the pathogenicity of the malaria parasite.  相似文献

The hand mirror (HM) cell phenomenon, which usually affects pathologic cells of lymphoid tissue in bone marrow, especially in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), was seen in B-cell lymphoma cells in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It was subsequently detected not only in the bone marrow, but also in extramedullary sites of the lymphoma. Subsequent phase-contrast microscopic study of 45 consecutive specimens of CSF revealed lymphoid cells with HM features in a case of ALL (in which HM cells were subsequently found in the bone marrow) and in a case of acute viral meningoencephalitis. These observations demonstrate that the HM cell phenomenon, which is considered to be a cellular alteration resulting from incorporation in the cell of antigen-antibody complexes, is not unique to bone marrow. It can be present in extramedullary sites and can be seen in exfoliated cells in CSF, where its detection is facilitated by the use of phase-contrast microscopy.  相似文献

The t(8;21)(q22;q22) translocation, which fuses the ETO gene on human chromosome 8 with the AML1 gene on chromosome 21 (AML1-ETO), is one of the most frequent cytogenetic abnormalities associated with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). It is seen in approximately 12 to 15% of AML cases and is present in about 40% of AML cases with a French-American-British classified M2 phenotype. We have generated a murine model of the t(8;21) translocation by retroviral expression of AML1-ETO in purified hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). Animals reconstituted with AML1-ETO-expressing cells recapitulate the hematopoietic developmental abnormalities seen in the bone marrow of human patients with the t(8;21) translocation. Primitive myeloblasts were increased to approximately 10% of bone marrow by 10 months posttransplant. Consistent with this observation was a 50-fold increase in myeloid colony-forming cells in vitro. Accumulation of late-stage metamyelocytes was also observed in bone marrow along with an increase in immature eosinophilic myelocytes that showed abnormal basophilic granulation. HSC numbers in the bone marrow of 10-month-posttransplant animals were 29-fold greater than in transplant-matched control mice, suggesting that AML1-ETO expression overrides the normal genetic control of HSC pool size. In summary, AMLI-ETO-expressing animals recapitulate many (and perhaps all) of the developmental abnormalities seen in human patients with the t(8;21) translocation, although the animals do not develop leukemia or disseminated disease in peripheral tissues like the liver or spleen. This suggests that the principal contribution of AML1-ETO to acute myeloid leukemia is the inhibition of multiple developmental pathways.  相似文献

Skin biopsies from eight patients with drug-induced dermatitis have been compared with skin biopsies from 16 patients developing skin lesions (acute graft versus host-reaction and/or drug-induced reaction) after bone marrow transplantation. Biopsies were investigated using immunohistochemistry and several monoclonal antibodies. Morphological and immunohistochemical patterns in skin biopsies of both groups were very similar. The only difference seen was a reduced number of epidermal Langerhans cells with poorly developed dendrites in skin biopsies taken from patients who underwent bone marrow transplantation. If the latter finding is due to the cytotoxic drug regimen administered before bone marrow transplantation, as previously stated, we doubt the usefulness of skin biopsies in the differential diagnosis of acute graft-versus-host reaction and drug-induced skin lesions.  相似文献

A cytogenetic study of bone marrow aspirate from 32 patients with different types of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) has been carried out. The patients were from eight regions of Ukraine. Chromosome deletions prevailed in the spectrum of karyotype changes. The largest number of chromosome abnormalities was revealed in patients with a refractory anemia with an excess of blasts (66.6% of cases). Chromosomal changes that involved three or more chromosomes occurred among 27% of all karyotype changes examined by us. Transformation of myelodysplastic syndrome to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) was found in 5 patients (45.4% of the cases) among 11 patients with abnormal karyotypes. We propose that cytogenetic confirmation of increased apoptosis in the bone marrow from the myelodysplastic syndrome patients is a phenomenon of chromosome fragmentation. The risk of transformation of myelodysplastic syndrome to acute myeloid leukemia was measured with the use of a new international score system, IPSS.  相似文献

Chemotherapy-induced bone marrow damage is accompanied by acute nerve injury in the bone marrow (BM), resulting in sensory and autonomic neuropathy. Cisplatin, a popular chemotherapy drugs, induces the impairment of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and bone marrow regeneration, leading to chronic bone marrow abnormalities. Previously, we reported the protective roles of neuropeptide Y (NPY) against cisplatin-induced bone marrow impairment. In this study, we identified novel peptides, generated from full-length NPY that rescued cisplatin-induced sensory neuropathy and HSC suppression by regulating cell survival in the BM microenvironment. One of these peptides, especially, showed a better protective property against these impairments compared to that seen in full-length NPY. Therefore, we suggest the NPY sequences most effective against the chemotherapy-induced bone marrow dysfunction that could be potentially useful as therapeutic agents for patients receiving chemotherapy.  相似文献

The nature of null-cell acute lymphatic leukemia (ALL) was investigated with the aid of a thymic humoral factor (THF), bone marrow cells, and a local xenogeneic graft-versus-host reaction (GVHR). Lymphocytes obtained from the blood and bone marrow of six children with T-cell ALL, five with null-cell ALL, one with perinatal B-cell ALL, one with acute myelocytic leukemia, and one with erythroleukemia were tested for membrane surface markers (E, EAC, and SM Ig); functional activity of T cells was tested by a local GVHR. All of the specimens obtained at the initial presentation showed a lack of functional activity of the lymphocytes. Incubation of null cell and acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) bone marrow with THF led to the acquisition of the characteristics of functional, immunocompetent T cells. No such effect was seen when the bone marrow of T-cell ALL and peripheral blood lymphocytes of B-cell perinatal ALL were incubated with THF. This study demonstrates that the null cell in ALL bone marrow can be differentiated into a T cell whereas the stem cell in AML bone marrow constitutes a pluripotential undifferentiated cell which also can mature into a T cell.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo describe 3 cases of atypical diabetes mellitus following bone marrow transplantation.MethodsWe describe the clinical presentation and relevant laboratory findings of 3 patients who presented with new-onset diabetes mellitus after bone marrow transplantation and discuss the possible mechanisms.ResultsA 52-year-old white man with chronic myelogenous leukemia, a 51-year-old white woman with acute myelogenous leukemia, and a 38-year-old Hispanic woman with acute myelogenous leukemia presented with acute onset of diabetes mellitus after bone marrow transplantation. Although blood glucose levels were initially very high, the patients required only small insulin dosages for glycemic control. Both the acute onset and requirement of relatively small insulin dosages were characteristic of type 1 diabetes mellitus. Onset of diabetes appeared to be unrelated to immunosuppressive drug therapy because it happened several months after starting these drugs. C-peptide was detectable, and glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies were absent. Diabetes mellitus remitted spontaneously after a few months while the immunosuppressive drugs were continued.ConclusionAlthough the underlying mechanisms are unknown, cytokine changes after bone marrow transplantation may have led to temporary b-cell dysfunction in these patients.

选择16例血清HBsAg阳性患者为实验组,19例血清HBsAg阴性患者为对照组,每一患者同时采取血清和骨髓涂片,用免疫细胞化学方法(PAP)检测骨髓涂片细胞中的HBsAg。结果,实验组3例骨髓细胞HBsAg阳性者,其血清中HBsAg滴度都很高,而且HBeAg均呈阳性。而在抗HBe阳性或HBeAg/HBeAb阴性者中均无骨髓细胞HBsAg阳性者。在5例血清HBV-DNA多聚酶阳性者中,骨髓细胞中HBsAg阳性者2例;6例多聚酶阴性者中,骨髓细胞中HBsAg阳性者仅1例。 本研究结果证明,HBV可在肝外组织细胞中测出,骨髓细胞HBsAg阳性的出现有集中于HBV高水平复制感染者中的倾向,同时更常见于HBV感染的较早时期。  相似文献

Cytogenetic studies were done on bone marrow cells and peripheral lymphocytes of four patients (three with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia, one with aplastic anemia) at various intervals up to 861 days after total-body X irradiation (TBI) at doses between 4.5 and 10 Gy (450-1000 rad) followed by syngeneic or allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. Whereas no radiation-induced aberrations could be found in the bone marrow, apart from a transient finding in the patient with the lowest radiation dose, aberrant metaphases were seen in the peripheral lymphocytes of three patients in the range from 2.5 to 46% even at 861 days after the exposure. There were no demonstrable aberrations related to TBI in the only patient developing graft-versus-host disease. The dicentric yield as determined in the aberrant metaphases with 46 centromeres ranged between 3.4 +/- 1.3 and 4.9 +/- 0.4. In one patient it was demonstrated by BUdR-labeling that after 10 Gy (1000 rad) TBI the surviving and heavily damaged lymphocytes can go into cell cycle and reach at least the third mitosis. The percentage of aberrant cells diminished by about 25% at each mitotic division.  相似文献

The present work is concerned with early cellular changes occurring during a malaria infection. Blast transformation by lymphoid cells and phagocytosis by adherent cells from the bone marrow was performed, using immune and nonimmune Balb/c mice. Nonadherent bone marrow cells from immune mice show an increased specific lymphoblast transformation. This increase was not observed during a lethal infection (PI). Adherent bone marrow cells were assayed for phagocytosis of parasitized (PE) or normal erythrocytes (NE). Cells from immune mice show an increase in phagocytosis of PE and NE. Cells from PI mice showed a decreased phagocytosis throughout the infection, beginning at Day 1 after challenge.  相似文献

In 27 patients initially diagnosed as refractory anaemia (RA) or RA with sideroblasts (RA-S) according to the FAB-classification a number of clinical, morphological and cytogenetic parameters were correlated for prognostic significance. From these correlations it emerged that severe cytopenia is centrally positioned with regard to clinical course in RA and RA-S. Positive correlations were found to initial diagnosis, clonal cytogenetic abnormalities, progression to RA with an excess of blasts (RAEB) or acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), the percentage of bone marrow blast cells and prolonged half life for radioactively labeled iron. The degree of peripheral blood granulocytopenia, alone, was correlated to bone marrow hypoplasia. Moreover, the frequency of abnormal karyotypes was inversely correlated to bone marrow cellularity and proportional to the frequency of bone marrow blast cells. From these relationships it may be proposed that chromosome abnormalities are associated with prolonged blast cell generation times and inhibition of blast cell maturation resulting in reduced marrow cellularity and blast cell accumulation, and, in the peripheral blood, falling percentages of neutrophil granulocytes. With the blast cell accumulation the bone marrow cellularity again becomes hyperplastic and the preleukaemic condition is transformed into RAEB or AML.  相似文献
