E-mail: [email protected] Background Multiparameter flow cytometric analysis of bone marrow and peripheral blood cells has proven to be of help in the diagnostic workup of myelodysplastic syndromes. However, the usefulness of flow cytometry for the detection of megakaryocytic and platelet dysplasia has not yet been investigated. The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate by flow cytometry the diagnostic and prognostic value of platelet dysplasia in myelodysplastic syndromes.

Range Determination of Antigen Expression in Myeloid, Erythroid and Lymphoid Cell Lineages among Patients with Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Background: Myelodysplastic syndrome is a mixed clonal disorder of bone marrow progenitor cells. Understanding the pattern of the different lineage-specific, immature, and mature markers in myelodysplastic syndrome will help in setting-up the frame of reference to diagnose. Patients and Methods: We compared 60 bone marrow samples from 30 newly-diagnosed patients with myelodysplastic syndrome ...
متن کاملInfections in myelodysplastic syndromes.
Myelodysplastic syndromes are associated with a risk of severe infections. While neutropenia is likely to be the main predisposing factor, several other immune defects have been reported, including impaired neutrophil function, B-, T- and NK-cell defects and the possible consequences of iron overload due to red blood cell transfusions. The advanced age of most patients, their frequent comorbidi...
متن کاملIDH1 mutations in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes are associated with an unfavorable prognosis.
BACKGROUND Myelodysplastic syndromes are a heterogeneous group of hematopoietic stem cell disorders with a high propensity to transform into acute myeloid leukemia. Heterozygous missense mutations in IDH1 at position R132 and in IDH2 at positions R140 and R172 have recently been reported in acute myeloid leukemia. However, little is known about the incidence and prognostic impact of IDH1 and ID...
متن کاملActivation of cytotoxic T-cell receptor gd T lymphocytes in response to specific stimulation in myelodysplastic syndromes
Results Vγ9Vδ2 T cells, the major circulating γδ T-cell subset, were reduced in myelodysplastic syndromes, but mainly in myelodysplastic syndromes’ patients with associated autoimmune diseases, suggesting that this anomaly was largely due to the autoimmune component. On the other hand, bromohalohydrin pyrophosphate-induced expansion of the Vγ9Vδ2 T-cell population in all 15 control samples, but...
متن کاملMutational analysis of therapy-related myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myelogenous leukemia.
Therapy-related myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myelogenous leukemia comprise a poor-risk subset of myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myelogenous leukemia. Large-scale mutation profiling efforts in de novo myelodysplastic syndromes have identified mutations that correlate with clinical features, but such mutations have not been investigated in therapy-related myelodysplastic syndromes and...
متن کاملCD34+ cells from acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, and normal bone marrow display different apoptosis and drug resistance-associated phenotypes.
Myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are heterogeneous disorders in which conflicting results in apoptosis and multidrug resistance (MDR) have been reported. We have evaluated by multiparameter flow cytometry the expression of apoptosis- (APO2.7, bcl-2, and bax) and MDR-related proteins [P-glycoprotein (P-gp), multidrug resistance protein (MRP), and lung resistance protein...
