RESUMO
The activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), glutathione reductase (GSSG-R), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and MDA levels have been assayed in red blood cells (RBC), obtained from 57 people suffering from haemoblastoses. The activities of G6PD in the RBC in patients with polycythemia vera (PV) and chronic lymphoid leukemia (CML) are significantly higher than those in healthy patients. Changes in the activity of glutathione dependent enzymes GSSG-R and those of GSH-Px in the RBC go in opposite directions: the activity of GSSG-R is significantly enhanced in patients with PV and CML, but the activity of GSH-Px is decreased in all patients suffering from haemoblastoses. The high levels of MDA in the RBC of all patients with haemoblastoses indicate intensification of lipid peroxidation in their RBC.

The described basophilic variant of CML in blastic crisis was characterized by a distinct hyperhistaminemia, a moderate hypocoagulation and an insufficiently effective cytostatic therapy. Cell kinetic was characterized by a marked diminution of the whole marketing index (with H3-thymidine) of blasts and immature basophils with simultaneous prolongation of the generation time in comparison to myeloblasts at the chronic stage of the CML. Aneuploid cell clones prevailed in the bone-marrow.
