Item Excellent outcomes of allogeneic transplantation from peripheral blood of HLA-matched related donors for adult sickle cell disease with ATLG and posttransplant cyclophosphamide-containing regimen: an update work(2020) Ozdogu, Hakan; Boga, Can; Yeral, Mahmut; Kozaoglu, Ilknur; Gereklioglu, Cigdem; Aytan, Pelin; Kasar, Mutlu; Asma, Suheyl; Buyukkurt, Nurhilal; Korur, Asli; Sariturk, Cagla; 0000-0002-0895-4787; 0000-0001-5335-7976; 0000-0002-5086-5593; 0000-0003-3856-7005; 0000-0002-8902-1283; 0000-0002-5268-1210; 0000-0002-9580-628X; 0000-0002-9680-1958; 31992850; AAL-6544-2020; AAE-1457-2021; AAS-7129-2021; ABC-4148-2020; AAI-7831-2021; AAD-5616-2021; AAL-3906-2021; AAD-5542-2021; AAE-1241-2021; AAD-6222-2021Item Significance of Lymphocyte Count, Monocyte Count, and Lymphocyte-To-Monocyte Ratio in Predicting Molecular Response in Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: a Single-Centre Experience(2020) Pepedil-Tanrikulu, Funda; Buyukkurt, Nurhilal; Korur, Asli; Sariturk, Cagla; Aytan, Pelin; Boga, Can; Ozdogu, Hakan; Kozanoglu, Ilknur; 0000-0002-5268-1210; 0000-0002-0895-4787; 0000-0002-8902-1283; 0000-0002-5086-5593; 0000-0002-9680-1958; 32162884; AAE-1241-2021; AAD-6222-2021; AAE-1457-2021; AAD-5542-2021; AAD-5616-2021Background: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a disease resulting from BCR-ABL gene fusion. It is possible to monitor treatment by molecular testing for BCR-ABL. The lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) is a commonly used marker associated with prognosis in various neoplasms. This study was performed to evaluate the relevance of absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), absolute monocyte count (AMC), and LMR in predicting molecular response status in patients with chronic phase CML. Methods: Samples submitted to our hematology laboratory for BCR-ABL testing between April 2012 and October 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Concurrent hemogram testing together with the results of quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction were noted. Data were grouped according to molecular response status and the ALC, AMC, and LMR were compared among patient groups. Results: A total of 224 samples from 95 patients were included in the study. Analysis revealed differences between groups when newly diagnosed patients were compared with patients undergoing treatment, regardless of response status. However, analyzing the groups according to molecular response status failed to reveal differences in ALC, AMC, or LMR. Conclusions: ALC, AMC, and LMR are not potential biomarkers for predicting molecular response status in patients with chronic phase CML.Item A Novel Simplified Combination of Monoclonal Antibodies for Flow Cytometric Analysis of Bronchoalveolar Lavage Samples(2019) Pepedil-Tanrikulu, Funda; Sen, Nazan; Buyukkurt, Nurhilal; Sariturk, Cagla; Kozanoglu, Ilknur; 31532092Background: The profile of leukocytes in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid provides important information for diagnosing various lung diseases. A differential cell count of BAL is conventionally performed by evaluating centrifuged samples under a light microscope and enumerating the stained cells. Another rarely used method to identify BAL leukocytes is flow cytometry (FCM). However, there are no guidelines for standardizing this method and related literature is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of FCM for identifying BAL leukocytes. Methods: The BAL samples accepted to the hematology laboratory between 2014 - 2018 were retrospectively evaluated via light microscopy (LM) by a hematologist; while flow cytometric analyses with a monoclonal antibody panel composed of CD45/CD14/CD16 were noted by another doctor. The percentages of macrophages, lymphocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils determined by both methods were recorded for analysis. Correlations between the results from LM and FCM were investigated. In addition, compatibility between LM and FCM for denoting pathological values for each cell type was checked. Results: Among 140 reviewed BAL samples, 76 were included for further analysis. Comparisons revealed strong correlations between FCM and LM for identifying macrophages, lymphocytes, neutrophils, and eosinophils. In addition, regarding the normal cutoff values for each leukocyte type, FCM and LM were similar in the identification of pathological changes of all cell types except eosinophils. Conclusions: Flow cytometry was found to be feasible for use instead of LM and might become a more widely used technique to analyze BAL fluid in the future.
