Q

if Myeloperoxidase (MPO) or Sudan Black B (SBB) stain is used, which type of leukemia would show positive ad negative stain?

A

Positive:
AML

Negative:
M6, Mixed

21
Q

Show positive stain if Chloroacetate Esterase (CAE) is used

A

Myelocytic:
M1, M2, M3, M4

22
Q

Show positive stain if Non-specific Esterase is used (NSE)

A

Monocytic:
M4, M5

23
Q

Show positive stain in Periodic Acid Schiff is used (PAS)

A

ALL, M6, M7

24
Q

To distinguish acute myelogenous and monocytic leukemia from lymphocytic leukemia.

A

Sudan Black B (SBB)

25
Q

Principle of Sudan Black B (SBB)

A
  • Sudan black B dye is fat soluble,then it stains fat particles which present in the primary and secondary granules of myelocytic and monocytic cells.
26
Q

interpretations for SBB

A
  • Positive stain in patients with AML
  • not black staining cytoplasmic granules in myeloblasts
  • Myelogenous cells show coarse staining (faint staining pattern for myeloblast and increases staining with maturation)
  • Auer rods = positively stained
  • Monocytic cells show finely scattered granules
  • negative lymphocytic stain
  • L3 Burkitt type shows positive staining vacuoles
27
Q

Differentiate myelocytic and monocytic leukemia

A

Non-specific Esterases (w/ fluoride inhibition)

28
Q

principle of this test is WBCS contain esterases, a group of lysosomal enzymes
*show positive black red stain in megakaryocytes, platelets, histiosyte macrophage monocyte & lymphoblast of ALL
*negative for granulocytes

A

Non-specific Exterase

29
Q

with the addition of this reagent to incubation solution, it inhibits the staining reaction in monocytes but not in granulocytes

A

Sodium fluoride

30
Q

principle of this test is when naphthol AS-D chloroacetate is used as a substrate, the reaction is positive in the granulocytic cells and negative to weak in the monocytic cells

A

Specific Esterase or Chloroacetate

31
Q

interpretations for Specific esterase Choloroacetate

Myeloid cells:
Monocyte and Basophils:
Other cells (lymph-plasma-megakaryocyte-nrbc):
Auer rods:

A
  • positive
  • negative to weakly positive
  • negative
  • positive
32
Q

Cytochemical stains for differentiation of Acute leukemia for AML and ALL

Myeloperoxidase:
Sudan Black:
Napthol-AS-D Chloroactetate esterase (specific esterase):
Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS):

A

AML
- Pos
- Pos
- Pos
- Neg or diffusely pos

ALL
- Neg
- Neg
- Neg
- Pos (coarsely granular or block like)

33
Q

*Diagnosis of some acute lymphocytic leukemia
*subtypes of AML

A

Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) Reaction

34
Q

principle for Periodic Acid Schiff

A

the stain indicates the presence of mucoproteins, glycoproteins and high molecular weight carbohydrates in blood cells.

35
Q

Interpretations for PAS
Neutrophils:
Myeloblasts:
Eosinophils:
Monocytes:
Lymphocytes:
NRBC:
Megakaryocytes:

A
  • positive at most stages of development (strongly in mature stage)
  • weakly positive or negative
  • positive in stages of development
  • weakly positive (fine granules)
  • may contain few positive granules
  • negative (positive in abnormal erythroid precursors of erythroleukemia
  • positive
36
Q

which malignant cell has presence of increased number of PAS-positive granules in a focal or block-like positivity?

A

malignant lymphocytes in lymphoblastic leukemia

37
Q

Distinguishing the cells of leukemoid reactions with increase activity from these of (CML)with decreased activity.

A

Leukocyte Alkaline phosphatase (LAP)

38
Q

principle for Leukocyte Alkaline Phophatase

A

Alkaline phosphatase -
Activity is present in varying degrees in the neutrophil and band form of the granulocytes/sometimes in B lymphocytes

39
Q

how to perform LAP score?

A

Count 100 neutrophils and score them (0/+4), then multiply the score by the number of cells with that score , then calculate the final score by adding the total scores.

40
Q

Normal range for LAP score

A

30-185

41
