Iron granules in plasma cells.

چکیده
The curious and unusual finding of coarse iron granules in marrow plasma cells is reported in 13 patients, in whom the finding was incidental. In 10 of these patients there was known alcohol abuse and serious medical complications of that abuse. Previous reports of the finding are reviewed. Haematological data of the 13 patients are presented. A hypothesis is outlined which may account for the finding.

Background: Due to the known disadvantages of autologous bone grafting, tissue engineering approaches have become an attractive method for ridge augmentation in dentistry. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study conducted to evaluate the potential therapeutic capacity of PRP-assisted hADSCs seeded on HA/TCP granules on regenerative healing response of canine alveolar surgical bone...
متن کاملChanges in mineral contents of hens’ egg yolk fractions due to biological and technological influences Veränderungen des Mineralstoffgehaltes von Hühnereigelbfraktionen durch biologische und technologische Einflüsse
Calcium, magnesium, copper, iron and zinc are stored in hens’ egg yolk and, except for copper, the majority of these minerals are located in egg yolk granules (Table 1). Presumably, up to 90% calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc are firmly bound in the phosvitin-lipovitellin complex of granules (GREENGARD et al., 1964; TABORSKY, 1980; TUPPER et al., 1954). As was discussed by Richards, copper ions...

متن کاملLactoferrin: a review
This review discusses the biological properties of the glycoprotein lactoferrin. Lactoferrin has been identified in secretions from exocrine glands and in specific granules of neutrophils. After degranulation, neutrophils become the main source of lactoferrin in blood plasma. Lactoferrin possesses various biological functions, including roles in iron metabolism, cell proliferation and different...
