title: [The morphometric characteristics of the blood and sputum eosinophils in bronchial asthma patients].
abstract: The authors investigated principal morphometric parameters of peripheral blood and sputum eosinophils in 18 patients with moderate bronchial asthma receiving combined treatment, in healthy donors and BA patients treated for a long time with sodium cromoglycate (SC). In BA exacerbation there appeared eosinophils with large-size cells, cytoplasm and nucleus. The treatment resulted in a decrease in the cell and cytoplasm area, enlargement of the nucleus. SC cause morphometric alterations in eosinophils. The change in morphometric characteristics of the blood and sputum eosinophils, relationships between different cell characteristics in the course of treatment evidence for alterations of synthetic processes in the blood and sputum eosinophils, for replacement in cell the cell pool.
