Mast Cell-Lineage Versus Basophil Lineage Involvement in Myeloproliferative and Myelodysplastic Syndromes: Diagnostic Role of Cell-Immunopheno typing
1 Jan 1996
Abstract excerpt
Mast cells and blood basophils are distinct hemopoietic cells. They can be distinguished from each other and from all other lymphohemopoietic cells using antibodies against surface receptors or stored cytoplasmic molecules. In patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or myeloproliferative syndromes (MPS), an elevation of metachromatically granulated cells (MCS) is frequently seen. These cells can be...
