We have developed an in vivo model of human chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). A peripheral blood (PB) sample of Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome-positive CML cells in lymphoid blast crisis was transplanted intravenously (IV) into sublethally irradiated severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice, and this resulted in engraftment with systemic proliferation. Growth of leukemia was monitored by PB cell morphology and by flow cytometric analysis of murine PB cells labelled with an anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) monoclonal antibody. Human cells were first detected in the PB at 4 weeks and comprised a mean of 57% of the total nucleated cells in the PB of these mice by 15 weeks. The Ph chromosome was retained and the population has been successfully passaged. BCR/ABL fusion gene expression was detected in a subsequent passage. Experiments are underway to use this in vivo model to assess the antileukemic activity of BCR/ABL antisense oligonucleotides.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.

D005453 Fluorescence The property of emitting radiation while being irradiated. The radiation emitted is usually of longer wavelength than that incident or absorbed, e.g., a substance can be irradiated with invisible radiation and emit visible light. X-ray fluorescence is used in diagnosis.
