Record 2 2012-02-08

English

Subject field(s)
  • Blood
DEF

Method of determining what percentages of neutrophils in a population have each number of nuclear lobes or segments between one and five; normally over 75 per cent should have two or three lobes. An increase in the percentages with fewer lobes, called a shift to the left, is seen in bacterial infections, whereas an increased number with hypersegmentation of the nuclei, called a shift to the right, is seen in cobalamin and folate deficiency.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sang
DEF

Formule qui permet de mesurer le degré de segmentation nucléaire (nombre de lobes) des granulocytes; elle se traduit graphiquement par la courbe d'Arneth.

  • Blood
DEF

A mature granular leukocyte that is polymorphonuclear (its nucleus having three to five lobes connected by slender threads of chromatin, and cytoplasm containing fine granules).

Key term(s)
  • neutrophile

Globule blanc dont le noyau est formé de trois à cinq lobes distincts, reliés entre eux par de fins filaments de chromatine.

Record 4 2004-12-13

English

Subject field(s)
  • Cytology
  • Blood
DEF

Any cell of granulocytic (leukocytic) series in which the nucleus is elongated in the form of a curved or coiled band, but not segmented into distinct lobes as the mature polymorphonuclear neutrophil.

CONT

Band neutrophils are intermediate in maturation between metamyelocytes and mature neutrophils.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Cytologie
  • Sang
CONT

Une augmentation du nombre de granulocytes neutrophiles à noyau en bâtonnet circulants (c.-à-d. stabs ou neutrophiles immatures dont le noyau non segmenté est allongé) suggère une infection bactérienne. Les valeurs normales moyennes des stabs sont de 12,4 % (intervalle de 9,5-15,3 %). Dans une infection bactérienne aiguë typique, le rapport des stabs/neutrophiles segmentés peut atteindre des valeurs de 16-17 %.

OBS

stabs: Expression tirée d'un mot allemand signifiant "bâton".

DEF

Cytokinine appartenant à la famille de l'IL-8 (interleukine 8) intervenant comme agent chimiotactique.

OBS

On distingue NAP1 et NAP2 qui ont des origines et des fonctions voisines sinon similaires (chimiotactisme des neutrophiles, des cellules T, des basophiles). Elles sont sécrétées par diverses cellules (monocytes, macrophages, fibroblastes, neutrophiles, cellules endothéliales, hépatocytes, chondrocytes, kératynocytes) [...].

DEF

A poorly characterized chemotactic factor, molecular weight approximately 750,000 that attracts neutrophils but not eosinophils or monocytes and is released by basophils or mast cells in immediate hypersensitivity reactions.

CONT

... cascades of evoked mediators may well include molecules such as leukotriene B4(LTB4) (or even C5 fragments), i.e. neutrophil chemoattractants more usually associated with type II or type III allergic reactions or non-specific tissue injury.
