A

1-decrese production a-bone marrow hypoplasia (chemotherapy, plastic anemia)

b-replacment of bone marrow by tumor
c-suppretion in neutrophil only in certain drug and in neo plastic proliferation of cytotoxic T cell and NK

Effect on virus on B-cell lead to either 1-lytic of B- cell and spread of viral
2-stay and persist in latent form

–later on B-Cell will be activated and proliferate as a result of action protein lead to production on unusual AB like AB against sheep Red blood cell
