Discordances of cytoplasmic immunoglobulin G staining with the immunoperoxidase technic in plasma cells from bone marrow, tonsils, and appendix. 1985

M S Stul, and G N Logghe, and G B Bergmans, and J K Vanvuchelen, and A C Louwagie

Plasma cell cytoplasmic immunoglobulin was stained using the peroxidase-antiperoxidase technic in Bouin-fixed, paraffin-embedded human tissues from different origins. Bone marrow (BM), tonsils, and appendices were examined. IgA-, IgD-, and IgM-secreting plasmocytes were easily studied using highly diluted rabbit antihuman antisera in all tissues, including BM. IgG plasmocytes showed good stainability in tonsils and appendices, but variable results were obtained in BM. Bone marrow IgG plasmocytes from persons without infection required a tenfold higher concentration of rabbit antihuman IgG than plasmocytes derived from patients with infection. Stainability of BM plasmocytes from patients with infection was equal to BM plasmocytes from myeloma patients. Because the same rabbit antihuman IgG concentration could be applied for staining plasmocytes derived from tonsils and appendices, it is most probable that the difference in staining ability is due to a difference in activity of the plasmocytes, i.e., a different IgG concentration in the plasmocytes.

D007938 Leukemia A progressive, malignant disease of the blood-forming organs, characterized by distorted proliferation and development of leukocytes and their precursors in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemias were originally termed acute or chronic based on life expectancy but now are classified according to cellular maturity. Acute leukemias consist of predominately immature cells; chronic leukemias are composed of more mature cells.

D010950 Plasma Cells Specialized forms of antibody-producing B-LYMPHOCYTES. They synthesize and secrete immunoglobulin. They are found only in lymphoid organs and at sites of immune responses and normally do not circulate in the blood or lymph.

D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.
