Week 8: Infectious Changes
Stem cell theory
Interleukins
Neutrophilia
Monocytosis
Neutropenia
Leukoerythroblastic rxn
Shift to the left
MGP and CGP
Toxic changes
LAP
Lymphocytosis
Reactive lymphocyte
Turk cell
Plasma cell
Immunoblast
IM (EBV)
Protein ELP
Eosinophilia
Basophilia
Leukocyte Development
Stem cell theory
Proliferation
Differentiation
Maturation
Leukocyte precursors
Bacterial infection
Neutrophilia with shift to the left
Toxic changes
Leukoerythroblastic reaction
Monocytosis with chronic infection (eg,
TB)
Neutropenia with overwhelming infection
High LAP score
Leukocytosis
Shift to the Left
Neutrophilia
Mobilization of cells in the marginal
granulocyte pool (MGP) to circulating
granulocyte pool (CGP)
Bone marrow activity leads to leukemoid
reaction
Toxic Changes
Toxic granulations: 1o granules persisting to
the older stages
Dohle bodies: RNA
Vacuoles, not related to storage in EDTA
Toxic Changes in Neutrophils
Viral Infection
Lymphocytosis
Beware of pediatric reference ranges
Distinguish from CLL
Reactive lymphocytes (ATL, virocytes)
Downey classes and Turk cell
Immunoblast
EBV associated with IM: do serology
Broad g increase in protein ELP
Lymphocytosis and
Reactive Lymphocytes
Serum Protein
Electrophoresis
Parasitic Infection and Allergy
Eosinophilia in parasitic infection
Eosinophilia and basophilia in allergy
Note basophilia in CML
