ABSTRACT
In this study levels of copper-zinc suproxide dismutase (SOD-1) in HL-60 cells and mononucleocytes (MNC) of patients with leukemia were determined by radioimmunoassay and were correlated to DNA content and percentage of S phase of leukemic cells. The results showed that the levels of SOD-1 in HL-60 cells and MNC of AML, CML and B-ALL were higher than those in normal MNC (P
ABSTRACT
Bone marrow cells from 2 patients with panmyelosis leukemia were observed with transmission electron microscopy (TEM),scanning electron microscopy (SEM),myeloperoxidase (MPO) and platelet peroxidase (PPO).A lot of immature cells were found in the granulocytic, monocytic,erythrocytic and megakaryocytic series.Their major morphologic characteristics were as follows. In the erythrocytic series, petaloid-like and ball-like structure appeared and their perinuclear cisters were wider. In the myelomonocytic series, nuclear-cytoplasmic organelle asynchrony could be seen makedly and the nucleus appeared fully mature, but the cytoplasm contained only a few organelles, and in some cells the organells were often locally distributed. In the megakaryocytic series, many micromegakaryocytes were seen. In this paper, the ultrastructura] changes of four kinds of cells and their relationship with erythro-leukemia are also discussed.
ABSTRACT
The present paper reports the clinical observations on 45 cases of multiple myeloma. In 35 patients, the tumors were immunologically typed as type IgG in 16, IgA type in 9, 2 each of ?, ? type light chain disease (LCD) and double light chain disease (D-LCD). 2 of IgD type, 1 each of non-secreting type (n-SMM) and ? heavy chain disease (?HCD). Further immunological subtyping dis-closed that most of the cases belonged to IgG. ? and IgA1 ? types.
