Cytoplasmic labelling of eosinophils with tritiated thymidine triphosphate. 1979

G L Wantzin, and P Philip, and S A Killmann

A new technique which detects the presence of DNA polymerase and primer-template DNA by measuring the incorporation of 3H-thymidine-5-triphosphate (3H-TTP) showed cytoplasmic labelling of eosinophilic granulocytes and eosinophilic myelocytes in normals, in acute leukaemia, in chronic myeloid leukaemia and in patients with eosinophilia of unknown origin.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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.
