Sea-blue histiocytes in canine ceroid-lipofuscinosis (CCL). 1985

D Armstrong, and N Gadoth, and J Harvey

Cells corresponding to sea-blue histiocytes are described in bone marrow aspirates from dogs suffering hereditary ceroid-lipofuscinosis. Sea-blue histiocytes also occur in humans with so-called neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis and both exhibit strong autofluorescence. By quantitative fluorometric techniques, each species have similar spectral characteristics and, thus, the English setter with CCL can serve as a useful animal model.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008856	Microscopy, Fluorescence	Microscopy of specimens stained with fluorescent dye (usually fluorescein isothiocyanate) or of naturally fluorescent materials, which emit light when exposed to ultraviolet or blue light. Immunofluorescence microscopy utilizes antibodies that are labeled with fluorescent dye.

D009472	Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinoses	A group of severe neurodegenerative diseases characterized by intracellular accumulation of autofluorescent wax-like lipid materials (CEROID; LIPOFUSCIN) in neurons. There are several subtypes based on mutations of the various genes, time of disease onset, and severity of the neurological defects such as progressive DEMENTIA; SEIZURES; and visual failure.

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.
