Leukocytes in virus X infection.
Study of blood taken from patients with the recent "Virus X" "flu" syndrome showed slight leukopenia and the presence of abnormal lymphocytes, the most characteristic of which were those showing basophilic cytoplasm. These cells, often called Turk cells, and which the authors have termed "toxic" lymphocytes, are similar to those found in other virus infections.
