Term
Major lineages involved in PV
Definition
erythroid
Term
Major lineages involved in ET
Definition
Megakaryocytic
Term
Major lineages involved in CIMF
Definition
Fibroblast
Term
Abnormal complete blood count that suggests an MPD
Definition
erythrocytosis, granulocytosis, and/or thrombocytosis, dominance of transformed clone
Term
Diagnostic chromosome abnormality associated with CML
Definition
Philadelphia chromosome, 9:22 translocation
Term
Significance of chromosome abnormality associated with CML in ALL
Definition
Philadelphia chromosome seen in 2-5% of childhood ALL, and 25% of adult ALL, identical to CML in blast crisis, the breakpoint on chromosome 22 differs and creates p190k protein
Term
Peak incidence of CML according to age
Definition
median age 60-80 years, rarely seen in childhood
Term
Peak incidence of CML according to sex distribution
Definition
Equal distribution
Term
Important peripheral blood findings in CML
Definition
increased leukocytes, increased immature granulocytes, decreased LAP
Term
Important peripheral blood finding in CIMF
Definition
increased leukocytes, increased immature granuolcytes, decreased hemotocit
Term
Important clinical findings in CIMF
Definition
increase in spleen size, and increase in bone marrow fibrosis
Term
Important peripheral blood finding in PV
Definition
increase in hemocrit and increased platelets
Term
Important peripheral blood finding in ET
Definition
increased platelets
Term
Laboratory findings typically associated with CIMF
Definition
peripheral blood has a leukoerythroblastic blood picture shows immature leukocytes and nRBCs also striking aniso and poik with dacryocytes, normochromic normocytic anemia with a WBC count <30,000/mL, leukocytosis or leukocytopenia, basophilia, eosinophilia, and pseudo-Pelger Huët, thrombocytosis or thrombocytopenia, micromegakaryocytes, megakaryocytes fragments
Term
Peripheral blood findings in CML patients
Definition
nRBCs, increased platelets, leukocytosis with left shift, predominant cells are segs and myelocytes, pros and blasts < 20%, increase in eosinophils and basophils, monocytes moderately increased, myeloid dysplasia leads to pseudo Pelger-huet and decreased LAP, occasionally MK fragments and micromegakaryocytes
Term
Bone marrow in CIMF
Definition
BM aspiration yield dry tap, variable fibrosis, focal aggregates of megakaryocytes, fibrosis
Term
Criteria that indicate a transformation of an MPD into a blast crisis
Definition
moderate to marked diffuse BM fibrosis, > 20% blasts in BM or BM, nRBCs in peripheral blood, extramedullary blast proliferation, presence of large clusters of blasts in the bone marrow biopsy specimen
Term
Lab findings in primary PV
Definition
absolute increase in circulating RBC mass, thrombocytosis, and leukocytosis
Term
Lab findings in secondary PV
Definition
appropriate and inappropriate increase in EPO
Term
Characteristic peripheral blood picture in ET
Definition
extreme and consistent thrombocytosis, absence of increased RBC mass, normocytic normochromic, nRBCs, leukocytosis (22-40 x 10^3/ uL)
Term
MPD peripheral blood
Definition
erythrocytosis, granulocytosis and/or thrombocytosis
Term
MPD bone marrow
Definition
panhypercellularity, panmyelosis, fibrotic
Term
MPD other diagnostic laboratory test
Definition
cytogenetic abnormalities
Term
Laboratory findings associated with MPD
Definition
erythrocytosis, granulocytosis, and/or thrombocytosis
Term
Laboratory findings associated with AL
Definition
clonal expansion of a single tranformed cell and a decrease in normal cells
Term
Philadelphia Chromosome
Definition
HSC is the cell or origin, balanced reciprocal translocation, juxtaposition of ABL proto-oncogene with portion of BCR gene
Term
How Philadelphia chromosome leads to MPD and blast crisis
Definition
leads to production of BCR/ABL protein
Term
BCR/ABL1 rearrangement
Definition
novel BCR/ABL fusion gene produces novel 210-kD (p210) BCR/ABL fusion protein
Term
How BCR/ABL1 rearrangement leads to MPD and blast crisis
Definition
abnormal tyrosine kinase activity, activates signal transduction pathways, increase in proliferation and decrease in apoptosis
Term
JAK2 (V617F) mutations
Definition
seen in PV
Term
How JAK2 (V617F) mutation leads to MPD and blast crisis
Definition
binds cytoplasmic domain of EPO-R
Term
Expression of growth factor receptors
Definition
due to JAK2 mutation
Term
How expression of growth factor receptors leads to MPD and blast crisis
Definition
receptor activation independent of EPO binding and signaling, increase in Bcl-X leads to decrease in apoptosis of progenitor cells
Term
CML laboratory tests
Definition
decreased LAP scores
Term
Benign leukemoid reaction
Definition
increase LAP scores
Term
Role of growth factors in fibrosis from CIMF
Definition
mutation of MPL- (W515L) which is a TPO membrane receptor, due to fibrinogen GFs, stimulate growth of and proliferation of fibroblasts and accumulation of BM stromal elements
Term
Laboratory results peripheral blood in CIMF
Definition
immature leukocytes and nRBCs, striking aniso and poik, normochromic and normocytic anemia, WBCs < 30,000/mL, leukocytosis and leukocytopenia, basophilia, eosinophilia, and pseudo- Pelger Huët, thrombocytosis or thrombocytopenia, micromegakaryocytes and megakaryocyte fragments
Term
Laboratory results bone marrow in CIMF
Definition
dry tap, variable fibrosis, focal aggregates of megakaryocytes
Term
Relative PV laboratory findings
Definition
decrease in plasma volume due to dehydration
Term
Absolute PV laboratory findings
Definition
increase in RBC in peripheral blood, other progeny of HSC may be increased and erythrocytosis leads to increased hemoglobin, hematocrit and RCM
