Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) escape from immunosurveillance by immunosuppression. CD200 and CD56 expression represented an independent prognostic factor in many hematological malignancies but its importance in AML patients remains to be identified.
Methods: CD200 and CD56 expression were assessed in the bone marrow blasts for Fifty-two (52) newly diagnosed AML by flowcytometry before start of therapy.
Results: CD200+ expression was reported in 28.8% of patients while 17.3% of patients showed CD56+ expression. M4 FAB revealed high frequency of both CD200+ and CD56+ expression. The overall survival of CD200+ patients was 19.2% compared to 35.3% in CD200- (P= 0.049). On the other hand, CD56+ patients had the lowest complete remission rate (22.2% vs. 53.4%). In addition, CD56+ population had significant bad influence on overall survival than those of CD56- population (11.1 % vs. 35.5 %, P= 0.047).
Conclusions: CD200 and CD56 positive expression by myeloblasts at diagnosis denote poor prognostic indicator and correlated with poor cytogenetic findings. CD200 could be used as therapeutic target in AML.

Background: Plasma cell myeloma (PCM) is a common adult hematological neoplasm of terminally differentiated B-cells resulting in accumulation of monoclonal plasma cells. PCM is heterogeneous disease with survival time varies from months to years, determined by age, stage, cytogenetics abnormalities, and treatment response. There is conflicting evidence in role of immunophenotype as a prognostic indicator.

Problem: There is a higher incidence of irritable bowel syndrome with miscarriages, and recurrent miscarriages of otherwise normal embryos have been linked to subnormal expression of the immune checkpoint inhibitor CD200L. We sought to determine if alterations in the expression of the CD200 immune checkpoint inhibitor occur in colonic tissue in IBS-D patients.
Method Of Study: Quantitative immunohistochemical staining of biopsies from proximal and distal colon or rectum for the inhibitory CD200L and CD200S molecules was done.
Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) immunophenotyping (IPT) and measurable residual disease (MRD) monitoring by flow cytometry is a surrogate for progression-free survival and overall survival in clinical trials. However, plasma cell enumeration is challenging owing to morphological discrepancies and plasma cell (PC) loss during the sample processing.
Methods: In (n=87) newly diagnosed MM patients, we evaluated the immunophenotype of PCs at baseline, and for a subset of 35 patients MRD at post-induction was quantified and analyzed for association with outcomes and survival.

This study aimed to explore the effectiveness and safety of (MYXV) in MM cell lines and primary myeloma cells obtained from patients with multiple myeloma. Myeloma cells were isolated from MM patients and cultured. MYXV, lenalidomide, and bortezomib were used in MM cells.

Full spectrum flow cytometry brings a breakthrough for minimal residual disease (MRD) detection in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We aimed to explore the role of a new panel in MRD detection. We established a 24-color full-spectrum flow cytometry panel.
