White Blood Cell Differentials Enrich Whole Blood Expression Data in the Context of Acute Cardiac Allograft Rejection

open access: yesBioinformatics and Biology Insights, 2012
Acute cardiac allograft rejection is a serious complication of heart transplantation. Investigating molecular processes in whole blood via microarrays is a promising avenue of research in transplantation, particularly due to the non-invasive nature of ...

White blood cell classification

open access: yesCoRR, 2020
This paper proposes a novel automatic classification framework for the recognition of five types of white blood cells. Segmenting complete white blood cells from blood smears images and extracting advantageous features from them remain challenging tasks in the classification of white blood cells. Therefore, we present an adaptive threshold segmentation

White Blood Cells and Blood Pressure [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2020
Background: High blood pressure (BP) is a risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. While BP is regulated by the function of kidney, vasculature, and sympathetic nervous system, recent experimental data suggest that immune cells may play a role in hypertension. Methods:

Multiple Loci Are Associated with White Blood Cell Phenotypes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
White blood cell (WBC) count is a common clinical measure from complete blood count assays, and it varies widely among healthy individuals. Total WBC count and its constituent subtypes have been shown to be moderately heritable, with the heritability ...

Human red blood cells at work: identification and visualization of erythrocytic eNOS activity in health and disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A nitric oxide synthase (NOS)-like activity has been demonstrated in human red blood cells (RBCs), but doubts about its functional significance, isoform identity and disease relevance remain.

A Neural-Network-Based Approach to White Blood Cell Classification

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
This paper presents a new white blood cell classification system for the recognition of five types of white blood cells. We propose a new segmentation algorithm for the segmentation of white blood cells from smear images.
