Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria [PDF]
AbstractParoxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare bone marrow failure disorder that manifests with hemolytic anemia, thrombosis, and peripheral blood cytopenias. The absence of two glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins, CD55 and CD59, leads to uncontrolled complement activation that accounts for hemolysis and other PNH ...

The kidneys in paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria [PDF]
Long-term study of 21 PNH patients revealed an unexpectedly high incidence of functional and anatomic renal abnormalities. Most patients demonstrated varying degrees of hematuria and proteinuria distinct from hemoglobinuria. Evaluation of renal function revealed hyposthenuria, abnormal tubular function, and declining creatinine clearance ...

Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria [PDF]
Abstract 1. Paroxysmal noctural hemoglobinuria is believed to be an acquired disease of the hematopoietic system in which abnormal red cells, white cells, and platelets are produced. The lesion of the cells probably involves the stromal proteins in such a fashion that they are susceptible to the proteolytic effect of a sytem of normal ...

Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria in Myelofibrosis [PDF]
Abstract Ten consecutive patients with myelofibrosis were examined for the following signs of PNH: Ham’s test, the sucrose hemolysis test, low red cell acetylcholinesterase (ACHE) activity and intravascular hemolysis. Two of the patients displayed all these signs and also had clinical symptoms of PNH.
