hematopoietic system
• there is a 14-fold decrease in mature megakaryocytes and a 2.3 fold reduction in immature megakaryocytes after treatment
|
• myeloid progenitors increase 3- to 9-fold over littermate controls after polyinosinic-polycytidylic injection (pIpC)
• there is a predominant population of abnormal myeloid progenitors
• abnormal progenitors have myeloid-erythroid progentior immunophenotype
• in culture, 1.5- to 2.5 fold increase is observed in erythroid and myeloid colonies generated from bone marrow
• number of smaller colonies compared to control is significantly greater
• proliferative capacity of abnormal myeloid precursors is reduced
|
• platelet counts are reduced 50% at 2 weeks after injection with pIpC
|
• numbers of hematopoietic stem cells increases 2-to 3-fold over littermate controls
|
• infiltration of leukemic cells in spleen
|
• mice with acute myeloid leukemia have splenomegaly
|
liver/biliary system
• infiltration of leukemic cells in liver
|
