why do you see gum infiltration in acute monocytic leukemia
moncytic origin means they still retain the ability to reside in tissue (like a monocyte would enter tissue to become a macrophage)
what defines acute vs chronic leukemia
acute leukemia indicates >20% blasts - see cells halted at blast stage

chronic has <10% blasts and you see varying WBCs at different stages
FAB grouping of AML
M0 - AML minimal differentiation
M1 - AML with differentiation (sheets of blasts)
M2 - AML with maturation (blasts+maturing myelocyte)
M3 - APL - promyelocytic
M4 - AMMoL - meyelomonocytic
M5 - AMoL - monocytiv
M6 - AEleuk - erythroleukemia - myeloblasts+erythroid precursor
M7 - AMkL - acute megakaryocytic leukemia
t(8,21)(q22;q22)
M2 associated translocation

often has panBcell marker CD19
inv(16)(p13;q22)
M4 with eosinophilia
t(15;17)(q22;q12)
M3 - acute promyelocytic leukemia

translocation involves retinoic receptor

can treat this cancer with vitamin A
prognosis of radiation induced AML
BAD
sudan black B stain
myeloblast lineage only
choloroacetate esterase stain
myeloblast lineage only
TdT stain
lymphoBLASTs only
auer rods
ONLY AML, but never ins M0 or M7
myeloperoxidase stain
stains myeloid lineage only
M7 - acute megakaryocytic leukemia
blasts are MPO/SBB negative

CD41a (gpIIb/IIIa) or CD61(gpIIIa) positive

look for blebbing
HLA-DR-, CD34-
M3
Which AML types do you NEED flow cytometry for
M0, M7
Uses of Flow Cytometry in AML
define lineage

M0,M7

disease associated phenotype: M3, t(8,21)

following treatment effectiveness
acute lymphoid leukemia FAB classification
L1 - looks like normal lymphocyte except bigger

L2 - looks like myeloidblast

L3 - burkitt's, large cells with large round nuclei, several nucleolus, basophilic cytoplasm with vacuoles stains with oil red O.
B cell acute lymphocytic leukemia is also known as
Burkitt's lymphoma

TdT-
Hypodiploid in ALL is good or bad prognosis
