Methods Quantifies of whole B lymphocytes and CD5^+ B lymphocytes as well as the expressions of Fas and Bcl-2 in B lymphocytes in 35 patients with untreated IRP, 15 IRP patients in complete remission (CR), and 10 normal controls were assayed by flow cytometry. The percentages of B lymphocyte and CD5^+ B lymphocyte were significantly higher in untreated IRP patients than in CR IRP patients and normal controls ( P 〈 0. 05 ), and there was no significant difference between the latter two groups ( P 〉 0. 05 ). There was no significant difference of Fas expression in B lymphocyte among three groups ( P 〉 0. 05). The expression of Bcl-2 in B lymphocyte was significantly higher in untreated patients than in CR patients or normal controls ( P 〈 0. 01 ), and significantly higher in CR patients than in normal controls ( P 〈 0. 01 ). The apoptosis. related index was significantly lower in untreated patients than in CR patients or normal controls ( P 〈 0. 05 ), and signif. icantly lower in CR patients than in normal controls ( P 〈 0. 05 ). The percentage of B lymphocyte was positively correlated with post-treated response time ( r = 0. 53, P 〈 0. 01 ). Conclusion The production of auto-antibodies in IRP patients probably has some relationship with the abnormal quantifies of B lymphocyte and its subpopulations as well as with the inhibition of B lymphocyte apoptosis.展开更多

The results showed significant changes in some parameters in comparison with control animals started as early as 15 minutes and intensified by the continuous exposure time, leading to significant increase (p 〈 0.05) in the number of both WBC (white blood cells), PLT (blood platelets) and decrease in numbers of RBC (red blood corpuscles) while hemoglobin percentages (Hb%) showed an insignificant (p 〉 0.05) fluctuating rhythm. The percentages of both Neutrophil and Lymphocyt recorded a significant increase (p 〈 0.05) 1 hour post-exposure to the DEE while other WBCs showed less changes. It is concluded that blood components are so sensitive to DEE and do respond quicker to inhaled pollutants via changes in some components of WBC% but decrease in RBC% and the likelihood of blood clotting due to increase in blood platelets. These results indicate the acute toxic risks of the exposure to DEE of mechanics and technicians who work in vicinity of DEE sources or/and spend most daily hours in semi closed areas.展开更多
