Multiparameter Flow Cytometry in the Evaluation of Myelodysplasia

This document summarizes recommendations from the International/European Leukemia Net Working Group for Flow Cytometry in Myelodysplastic Syndromes on the analytical issues in MFC for the diagnostic work-up of MDS. Recommendations for the analysis of several BM cell subsets such as myeloid precursors, maturing granulocytic and monocytic components and...

The FDA’s Proposed Ruling on Lab Tests Could Have Unintended Consequences

Yale experts are raising concerns about a rule proposed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to enforce the agency’s regulatory control over laboratory-developed tests, or LDTs. The tests play a critical role in filling gaps in commercial testing, such as diagnostic tests for rare diseases deemed unprofitable by manufacturers. LDTs also allowed laboratories at Yale and beyond to rapidly offer testing...

A Microfluidics Approach for Ovarian Cancer Immune Monitoring in an Outpatient Setting

Among cancer diagnoses in women, ovarian cancer has the fifth-highest mortality rate. Current treatments are unsatisfactory, and new therapies are highly needed. Immunotherapies show great promise but have not reached their full potential in ovarian cancer patients. Implementation of an immune readout could offer better guidance and development of immunotherapies. However, immune profiling is...

Cell-Free Chromatin Particles Released From Dying Cells Inflict Mitochondrial Damage and ROS Production in Living Cells

Mitochondrial damage and the resultant oxidative stress are associated with neurodegenerative diseases, ageing, and cancer. However, the triggers of mitochondrial damage remain unclear. We previously reported that cell-free chromatin particles (cfChPs) released from the billions of cells that die in the body every day can readily enter healthy cells and damage their DNA. Here, we show that cfChPs isolated...

Blood Based Detection of Aberrancies by Flow Cytometry in Patients With Suspected and Confirmed Myelodysplastic Neoplasms
www.nature.com

Flow cytometry (FCM) of bone marrow (BM) samples is part of the integrated diagnostic approach for myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) [1,2,3]. Several FCM-based scoring systems e.g. the Ogata-score and integrated FCM-score (iFS) have been implemented...

Impact of Hemodilution on Flow Cytometry Based Measurable Residual Disease Assessment in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
www.nature.com

Measurable residual disease (MRD) measured in the bone marrow (BM) of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients after induction chemotherapy is an established prognostic factor. Hemodilution, stemming from peripheral blood (PB) mixing within BM...
