A comparative study of the shedding process mouse erythrocyte binding receptors on peripheral blood lymphocytes from healthy donors and patients suffering from chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
The shedding process of the mouse erythrocyte binding receptors of human peripheral lymphocytes of a healthy donor group was compared to that of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. The shedding process exhibited significant differences with respect to the groups tested, suggesting that the mouse erythrocyte binding receptors were altered during leukemic transformation or that the leukemic cells were fixed in a stage of maturation.
