Functions And Interrelationships Of Leukocytes In Inflammation As Elucidated By The Rebuck Skin Window Technique, Sheikh M. Saeed Sep 1979

Functions And Interrelationships Of Leukocytes In Inflammation As Elucidated By The Rebuck Skin Window Technique, Sheikh M. Saeed

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

This article provides an overview of the functions of human leukocytes in inflammation as elucidated by the Rebuck skin window technique. The migration sequence of various leukocytes into the field of inflammation is described, as well as cytologic, cytochemical, and transformational changes, and the interrelationships of responding leukocytes. Since it was introduced in 1955, the Rebuck skin window technique has provided an excellent means of studying in vivo inflammatory response to different phlogistic agents in normal individuals and in various disease states. This simple technique continues to prove fruitful to further study and to monitoring of many disease states.


Igg Lymphoplasmacytic Intestinal Lymphoma: A Case Report, Heidrun Z. Rotterdam, Sheldon C. Sommers Sep 1979

Igg Lymphoplasmacytic Intestinal Lymphoma: A Case Report, Heidrun Z. Rotterdam, Sheldon C. Sommers

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

We describe a rare case of a localized primary small intestinal lymphoma with features of both the Mediterranean and the Western type. This case demonstrates the need to regard intestinal lymphoma as a spectrum of diseases with the Mediterranean and the Western types at opposite ends and many variants in between. The role of the plasma cell infiltrate has been interpreted as reactive as well as neoplastic. In our case, both lymphocytic and plasmacytic proliferations spread widely in the intestinal submucosa, extended into muscularis propria and subserosal fat, and involved mesenteric lymph nodes. Direct immunofluorescence demonstrated IgG-kappa both in plasma …

Lymphocytes: 1979, Sudhir Gupta, Robert A. Good

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Rapid progress has been made in understanding the complexity of the immune system. The current status of lymphocyte subpopulations with regard to ontogenic development, their surface and intracellular markers, and functions in various Immunologic phenomena has been reviewed. Heterogeneity of T lymphocytes as defined by receptors for immunoglobulin isotypes is discussed in detail. Various cell types and their products involved in immunoregulatlon are also presented.


Acute Inflammatory Response In Experimental Skin Lesions Of Patients With Ankylosing Spondylitis, Gilbert H. Bluhm, Honora H. Mcelroy, Jeanne M. Riddle, John W. Sigler Sep 1979

Acute Inflammatory Response In Experimental Skin Lesions Of Patients With Ankylosing Spondylitis, Gilbert H. Bluhm, Honora H. Mcelroy, Jeanne M. Riddle, John W. Sigler

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Two different stimuli, tetanus toxoid (TT) and autologous fibrin (AF), were used to investigate the inflammatory response in ten patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS); in seven persons who had a family history of AS and were HLA-627 positive but had no clinical signs of AS; and in eight nonarthritic controls. The purpose was to determine whether the leukocytic response in an experimental Rebuck skin window lesion was the same or different from that seen in the synovial fluid of AS patients when in vivo-formed fibrin flakes were present. Four lesions were produced on each subject, with TT added to one …


Functional And Biochemical Alterations Of Platelets In Atherosclerosis And Thromboembolism, Orhan N. Ulutin Sep 1979

Functional And Biochemical Alterations Of Platelets In Atherosclerosis And Thromboembolism, Orhan N. Ulutin

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

In atherosclerosis, platelets appear to circulate in an activated state. Our findings are based on results obtained from 240 patients. These platelets demonstrated an increased degree of surface activation and an increased amount of aggregation. Platelet aggregation was also demonstrated by a heightened sensitivity to adrenalin and ADP. Greater than normal secretion of ADP, PF-4, platelet fibrinogen, and platelet antiplasmin was noted. Platelet antiplasmin was increased, whereas platelet antithrombin III was decreased. Membrane transport of glucose was found to be defective in atherosclerosis. There appears to be no alteration in the phospholipid distribution, although the amount of phospholipids increases. The …


The Role Of High Molecular Weight Kininogen (Fitzgerald Factor) In The Activation Of Various Plasma Proteolytic Enzyme Systems, R. Waldmann, A. G. Scicli, J. Guimaraes, G. Scicli, Oscar A. Carretero, H. Kato, Y. N. Han, S. Iwanaga Sep 1979

The Role Of High Molecular Weight Kininogen (Fitzgerald Factor) In The Activation Of Various Plasma Proteolytic Enzyme Systems, R. Waldmann, A. G. Scicli, J. Guimaraes, G. Scicli, Oscar A. Carretero, H. Kato, Y. N. Han, S. Iwanaga

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Bovine high molecular weight kininogen (bHMWK) partially corrects the aPTT of Fitzgerald-trait plasma, which is congenitally deficient in HMWK. The relationship between the structure and activity of HMWK was clarified by studying the effects of different fragments of bHMWK on the aPTT of Fitzgerald-trait plasma. The peptides studied, all in equimolar concentrations, were lys-bradykinin-free HMWK, bradyk In In-fragment 1-2-tree HMWK, heavy chain, fragment 1 -2-Hght chain, and light chain. Bradykinin- fragment 1-2-free HMWK, heavy chain, and light chain have little or no correcting activity upon Eitzgeraldtrait plasma aPTT. Fragment 1-2 light chain has the same correcting activity as intact bHMWK, …


A Method For Evaluating The Platelet Surface Response By Using Electron Microscopy, Jeanne M. Riddle Sep 1979

A Method For Evaluating The Platelet Surface Response By Using Electron Microscopy, Jeanne M. Riddle

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Our method for evaluating the surface response of any given platelet population, which has evolved over the past two decades, provides a measure of both the adhesive and cohesive qualities of platelets. General morphologic features of the adherent, whole platelets can be assessed by transmission electron microscopy, and the results are reproducible when serial samples are collected on normal subjects and patient groups. With this technique, different metabolites and drugs can be combined with platelet populations that are either normoresponsive or hyperactive to determine if these substances trigger or inhibit the platelet response. To date, the results from in vitro …

The Chediak-Higashi Syndrome: Spectrum Of Giant Organelles In Peripheral Blood Cells, James G. White, C. C. Clawson Sep 1979

The Chediak-Higashi Syndrome: Spectrum Of Giant Organelles In Peripheral Blood Cells, James G. White, C. C. Clawson

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The presence of giant organelles in the cytoplasm of peripheral blood elements is diagnostic for the Chediak-Higashi syndrome. These abnormal cytoplasmic inclusions are found within neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, and platelets. Their fine structural characteristics differ. Neutrophils demonstrate striking variability in the size, shape, and internal features of their giant organelles. Lymphocytes contain two different types of giant inclusions, one with a smoothly homogeneous substructure, the other with structures resembling microtubules. Emphasizing the ultrastructural similarities and differences of these anomalous granulations may provide valuable clues for understanding the basic defect of this inherited disorder.
