Detection of mixed chimerism and leukemic relapse after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in subpopulations of leucocytes by fluorescent in situ hybridization in combination with the simultaneous immunophenotypic analysis of interphase cells.

Abstract excerpt

Serial blood and marrow specimens from eight adult recipients of sex-mismatched transplants (BMT) for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML, n = 3), Ewing sarcoma (n = 1), acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in second remission (n = 1), acute lymphatic leukemia (ALL, n = 1) and multiple myeloma (n = 2) were analyzed by the simultaneous immunophenotypic CD3, CD4, CD8, CD20, CD34, CD10 and genotypic analysis (for X and Y...
