Abstract:
The aim was to study the morphological, histochemical and immunological characteristics of less-differentiated acute myeloid leukemic cells, and their diagnostic significance. Wright-Giemsa and histochemical staining were used to stain bone marrow smears from 2 case of AML-Mo. Immunological phenotypes were determined with flow cytometry. The results showed that myeloperoxidase stainings of both cases were negative, PAS was positive with fine particles, CD33/CD13 were positive, CD2/CD3/CD10/CD19/CD22 were negative. It is concluded that morphology, histochemistry and immunological phenotype on bone marrow smears are the main diagnostic basis for AML-Mo. The use of multiple monoclonal antibodies for staining may improve the accuracy.

Disorders of Leukocytes
Leukopenia may result from bone marrow disorders, autoimmune diseases, and infectious diseases. For example, conditions such as multiple myeloma and aplastic anemia can impair the bone marrow's ability to produce adequate leukocytes. Similarly, autoimmune diseases like lupus and viral infections such as HIV can prompt the immune system...
