The early stages of human lymphopoiesis are poorly characterized. Here, we compared the lymphoid potential of a novel umbilical cord blood CD34(+)CD45RA(hi)CD7(+) hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) population with that of CD34(+)CD45RA(hi)Lin(-)CD10(+) HPCs, previously proposed as candidate common lymphoid progenitors. Limiting-dilution and clonal analysis, fetal thymic organ cultures, and cul...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC6, and CD10 in ovarian mucinous adenoma (MA), mucinous borderline tumor (MB), and mucinous adenocarcinoma (MC), and to analyze the relationship between prognosis and these expressions. The expression of MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC6, and CD10 was evaluated by immunohistochemical analysis in 29 cases of MA, 29 case...

BACKGROUND Recent reports have divided diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) into germinal centre B cell-like and activated B cell-like subgroups with implicated differences in prognosis. AIMS To delineate the germinal centre B cell derivation group from an Asian series of DLBCLs. METHODS Fifty four cases were analysed by polymerase chain reaction to detect the t(14;18) translocation and im...

Acute inflammatory stimuli rapidly mobilize neutrophils from the bone marrow by shortening postmitotic maturation time and releasing younger neutrophils; however, the kinetics of this change in maturation time remains unknown. We propose a kinetic model that examines the rate of change in neutrophil average age at exit from the bone marrow during active mobilization to quantify this response an...

Immunophenotyping disclosed CD10 negativity in 70 of 2408 cases of B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), although other criteria followed classification of pre-B ALL (eg, cytoplasmic immunoglobulin positivity). These blasts showed high myeloid antigen expression (60% CD65 positivity) and reacted with antibody 7.1 in 95% of the cases. MLL-AF4 fusion transcripts or an 11q23/MLL rearrangem...

We evaluated the usefulness of multiparameter flow cytometry with cluster analysis in the diagnosis of a series of 100 well-characterized small B-cell lymphomas (SBCLs). The histologic diagnoses in the 100 cases were follicular lymphoma (FL) in 58, marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) in 17, small lymphocytic lymphoma in 15, and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) in 10. Of the 58 FLs, 57 were CD10 positive (98...

Objective: To assess the Clustered Differentiation 10 (CD10) expression in Urothelial carcinoma and to ascertain how its relates grade stage. Method: Descriptive cross sectional research was carried out over a period of six months Pathology Department on eighty five cases bladder from transurethral resection (TURBT) specimens diagnosed Hematoxylin-eosin (H & E) stained sections irrespective...
