Cytoplasmatic Expression of CD34 in Acute Leukemia

  • Conference paper
Acute Leukemias VII

Abstract

CD34 is preferentially expressed on immature haematopoietic cells and also in transformed haematopoietic cells. Here we tested the surface (s) and cytoplasmatic (c) CD34 expression on bone marrow blasts in twelve cases of Acute Leukemia (AL). Intracellular CD34 showed a heterogeneous distribution in leukemia and there is a trend to correlate with the maturation status of leukemic cells.
