Characterization of ineffective erythropoiesis in erythroleukaemia. 1975

W Queisser, and U Pepperl, and U Kempgens, and U Müller

In 6 cases initially showing a symptomatology of erythroleukemia, the proliferation of erythroblasts was studied by combined Feulgen cytophotometry and autoradiography after labelling with 3H-TdR in vivo. A proliferation disturbance was observed consisting of an accumulation of diploid and unlabelled cells and a decreased proportion of cells in S. This defect occurred within the basophilic cell compartment in one case and within the early polychromatic cell compartment in all 6 cases. The results indicate the existence of out-of-cycle cells, which may be responsible for the inefficacy for erythropoiesis in this disease. The defect was present in all 4 cases with acute erythroleukaemia. In one of the two cases showing no deterioration of the physical and haematological condition over a period of years, an additional defect was observed, consisting of a striking accumulation of tetraploid unlabelled cells. Therefore, the technique used may be suitable as a diagnostic tool for evaluation of new types of ineffective erythropoiesis.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004900 Erythroblasts Immature, nucleated ERYTHROCYTES occupying the stage of ERYTHROPOIESIS that follows formation of ERYTHROID PRECURSOR CELLS and precedes formation of RETICULOCYTES. The normal series is called normoblasts. Cells called MEGALOBLASTS are a pathologic series of erythroblasts.

D004920 Erythropoiesis The production of red blood cells (ERYTHROCYTES). In humans, erythrocytes are produced by the YOLK SAC in the first trimester; by the liver in the second trimester; by the BONE MARROW in the third trimester and after birth. In normal individuals, the erythrocyte count in the peripheral blood remains relatively constant implying a balance between the rate of erythrocyte production and rate of destruction. Erythropoieses
