The Leukocyte Count

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1968
The leukocyte count is a valuable part of the laboratory evaluation of the patient. Disposable pipets which are now available provide automatic measuring and easy mixing, and results are comparable to those obtained with glass pipets. 1 Errors in determining the total leukocyte count vary from 7% to 20%.

Of Lungs and Leukocytes

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1980
The publication more than three centuries ago of Harvey's De Motu Cardis laid the theoretical foundation for blood transfusion. Early attempts followed soon thereafter and often met with disastrous outcome; even the reports of early "successes" contain vivid description of acute intravascular hemolysis, complete with back pain, fever, confusion, and ...

The Leukocytes and the Leukopathies

Annual Review of Medicine, 1955
Early investigations of the leukocytes and the leukopathies centered largely around numerical and morphological variations in the peripheral blood. Later, the widespread use of marrow aspiration and lymph node bi­ opsy called attention to the value of these procedures in understanding and diagnosing the leukopathies.

Leukocytes and Thrombosis [PDF]

open access: possibleThrombosis and Haemostasis, 1965
SummaryWhite blood cells can no longer be considered simple trapped inclusions within thrombi. Their numbers in thrombi relative to blood counts increase with time. They appear to come from the blood flowing past the thrombus. They appear to migrate by amoeboid movement into the thrombic mass.

The polymorphonuclear leukocyte

Agents and Actions, 1978
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) are one of the main sources of enzymes responsible for tissue damage in inflammatory processes. These enzymes are stored in two types of cytoplasmic granules. Azurophil granules contain lysosomal hydrolases, neutral serine proteinases, and bactericidal elements (myeloperoxidase and lysozyme).

Apoptosis in leukocytes

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 1995
Abstract All cells of the hematopoietic system have finite life spans, shorter by far than that of the host. They end their lives by committing a form of cellular suicide or programmed cell death. The morphology of this process is considerably different from that of necrosis and is called apoptosis.

Leukocyte integrins

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1995
Lymphocytes, monocytes and granulocytes, which are collectively known as 'leukocytes', circulate primarily within the vascular system and lymphoid tissue but are found in essentially all tissues of the body. This mobile lifestyle necessitates the constant making and breaking of adhesive contacts with targets in their immediate environment. The adhesion

Colostral leukocytes

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1970
AbstractLeukocytes of human colostrum were studied for their phagocytic activity and ability to migrate in vitro. Samples were collected from healthy females in the first 2 weeks after delivery. Leukocytes were found with great regularity in concentrations of 2200–4100/mm3. These colostral leukocytes displayed glass adhesiveness, amoeboid movement, and

The Leukocyte Count in Labor

Obstetric Anesthesia Digest, 1985
The leukocyte count was evaluated in 479 laboring gravida women. Increasing leukocyte counts appeared to be linearly related to the duration of elapsed labor (y = 0.2174x + 10.31; p less than 0.001; 95% confidence interval of the slope = 0.1414 to 0.2934).

Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiencies

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2013
During inflammation, leukocytes play a key role in maintaining tissue homeostasis through elimination of pathogens and removal of damaged tissue. Leukocytes migrate to the site of inflammation by crawling over and through the blood vessel wall, into the tissue. Leukocyte adhesion deficiencies (ie, LAD-I, -II, and LAD-I/variant, the latter also known as
