[Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity of peripheral blood neutrophils in vitro in acute leukemia]. 1985

S A Guseva

A study was made of in vitro antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity of neutrophils of peripheral blood in 14 cases of acute myeloblastic leukemia and in 20 healthy patients (control group). A decrease in the number of neutrophils, carrying receptors to Fc-IgG and to C3b-component of complement was registered compared to the results obtained for healthy people. Besides, the number of cells restoring Nitro-blue tetrazolium and myeloperoxidase activity decreased. The decrease in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity of neutrophils in the cases of acute myeloblastic leukaemia is explained by the deficiency of the cell receptor apparatus and by the decrease in the intracellular metabolism in them.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008297	Male		Males
D008875	Middle Aged	An adult aged 45 - 64 years.	Middle Age
D009195	Peroxidase	A hemeprotein from leukocytes. Deficiency of this enzyme leads to a hereditary disorder coupled with disseminated moniliasis. It catalyzes the conversion of a donor and peroxide to an oxidized donor and water. EC 1.11.1.7.	Myeloperoxidase,Hemi-Myeloperoxidase,Hemi Myeloperoxidase
D009504	Neutrophils	Granular leukocytes having a nucleus with three to five lobes connected by slender threads of chromatin, and cytoplasm containing fine inconspicuous granules and stainable by neutral dyes.

D011961	Receptors, Fc	Molecules found on the surface of some, but not all, B-lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes, and macrophages, which recognize and combine with the Fc (crystallizable) portion of immunoglobulin molecules.	Fc Receptors,Fc Receptor,Receptor, Fc
D003179	Complement C3b	The larger fragment generated from the cleavage of COMPLEMENT C3 by C3 CONVERTASE. It is a constituent of the ALTERNATIVE PATHWAY C3 CONVERTASE (C3bBb), and COMPLEMENT C5 CONVERTASES in both the classical (C4b2a3b) and the alternative (C3bBb3b) pathway. C3b participates in IMMUNE ADHERENCE REACTION and enhances PHAGOCYTOSIS. It can be inactivated (iC3b) or cleaved by various proteases to yield fragments such as COMPLEMENT C3C; COMPLEMENT C3D; C3e; C3f; and C3g.

D000328	Adult	A person having attained full growth or maturity. Adults are of 19 through 44 years of age. For a person between 19 and 24 years of age, YOUNG ADULT is available.	Adults
D000920	Antibody-Dependent Cell Cytotoxicity	The phenomenon of antibody-mediated target cell destruction by non-sensitized effector cells. The identity of the target cell varies, but it must possess surface IMMUNOGLOBULIN G whose Fc portion is intact. The effector cell is a "killer" cell possessing Fc receptors. It may be a lymphocyte lacking conventional B- or T-cell markers, or a monocyte, macrophage, or polynuclear leukocyte, depending on the identity of the target cell. The reaction is complement-independent.
