Abstract:
:Erythroid regeneration is an important and separate element in the engraftment process in allogeneic and autologous bone marrow transplantation (alloBMT, autoBMT). Qualitative visual reticulocyte counting has proved inadequate in the evaluation of erythropoiesis after BMT but automated flow cytometry now allows the reliable quantitation of reticulocytes even to very low levels. Reticulocyte counts and highly fluorescent reticulocyte (HFR) counts (very early reticulocytes) were estimated daily in recipients of 22 autoBMT and 14 alloBMT using a Sysmex R-1000 automated reticulocyte counter. Marrow ablation caused an immediate and rapid fall in both the reticulocyte count and the HFR. Measurable numbers of reticulocytes persisted throughout the hypoplastic period, but HFR fell to zero in the majority of both the autoBMT and alloBMT. HFR rose significantly after a median time of 14 d post-autoBMT, and 12 d post-alloBMT. Attainment of 15 x 10(9)/l reticulocytes and 0.5 x 10(9)/l HFR at day 21 post-transplant was associated with ultimate engraftment in 100% cases. Inadequate engraftment was seen in the majority of patients whose responses fell below these levels. Graft-versus-host disease was associated with a transient slight reduction in reticulocyte count. Neither episodes of infection nor blood transfusions had any significant impact on trends of reticulocytes or HFR. Automated flow cytometric reticulocyte counting has been shown to provide an accessible measure of erythroid activity which may be of predictive value in the management of patients following bone marrow transplantation.
