B lymphocyte subpopulations in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
We have defined two subpopulations of B lymphocytes in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The major variant (termed typical) was characterized by the presence of a relatively homogeneous population of small-to-medium-sized lymphocytes with low-density SmIgM and no evidence of intracellular Ig synthesis. A minor group (termed atypical) was identified by the presence of a pleomorphic cell popula...
متن کاملThe effects of splenic irradiation on lymphocyte subpopulations in chronic B-lymphocytic leukemia.
We describe the effect of splenic irradiation (SI) (0.5-1 Gy weekly) on lymphocyte subpopulations for 7 patients with progressive B chronic B-lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL). Using specific cellular characteristics we could distinguish normal from abnormal cells. The irradiation resulted in a decrease of lymph node size, reduction in spleen volume and decrease in peripheral blood lymphocytes. The ...
متن کاملALTERATION OF T-LYMPHOCYTE SUBPOPULATIONS IN SUBACUTE AND CHRONIC BRUCELLOSIS
Human brucellosis is a major health problem in developing countries. A number of patients with human brucellosis do not recover from the acute stage of the disease and pass into the chronic form. Since the pathophysiology of this change is not well understood, we studied the T-cell subsets during the acute, subacute and chronic forms of human brucellosis. In this study we found alterations...
متن کاملLymphocyte Subpopulations in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Patients Using a Clonogenic Agar Technique and Monoclonal Antibodies
Peripheral blood lymphocytes from normal donors and patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. B-cell type. were purified into T. helper T. and suppressor T lymphocytes by fluorescence-activated cell sorting using OKT3. 0KT4. and 0KT8 monoclonal antibodies. The maximum response of the purified subpopulations to stimulation by phytohemagglutinin (PHA) was determined by measuring the production ...
متن کاملB-cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Purpose: To review the recent major advances in the molecular and cell biology of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL). Methods: Weanalyzed thenatureofmalignantB-CLLB cells and their interactions with the microenvironment. Results: B-CLL is a malignancy of a mantle zonebased subpopulation of anergic, self-reactive, activated CD51 B cells devoted to the production of polyreactive natural ...
