Platelet function studies were performed on two patients with the Chediak-Higashi syndrome, one of whom had a history of easy bruising unrelated to thrombocytopenia. Both patients had prolonged bleeding times, abnormal platelet aggregation, and a defect of platelet storage granules, manifested by reduced platelet ADP, an increased ATP/ADP ratio, increased adenine nucleotide specific radioactivi...
متن کاملDefective granulocyte chemotaxis in the Chediak-Higashi syndrome.
In vivo and in vitro studies of granulocyte chemotaxis were performed in three patients with the Chediak-Higashi syndrome. Rebuck skin windows showed a decreased accumulation of leukocytes at an inflammatory site. Studies in Boyden chambers documented a cellular defect in granulocyte chemotaxis. The chemotactic response of Chediak-Higashi cells by this technique averaged approximately 40% of no...
