1 28972490 Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is a lymphoproliferative disease characterised by accumulation of monoclonal CD19+CD5+CD23+ lymphocytes in the peripheral blood and bone marrow.
2 28972490 Phagocytic function was assessed through the ability of freshly isolated monocytes to attach and to engulf intact or opsonized Staphylococcus aureus particles in vitro with or without Granulocyte/Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) and Interferon g (IFNg).
3 28972490 Simultaneously, immunophenotyping for FcγRI (CD64), FcγRII (CD32), FcγRIII (CD16) and CD180 has been carried out.
4 28972490 Our results demonstrated that phagocytosis of the intact and opsonised or intact S. aureus by monocytes of CLL patients was significantly decreased in comparison with normal controls, with no recovery upon the treatment with GM-CSF and IFNg.
5 28972490 A significant decrease in the expression of CD64 and CD180 has been detected on monocytes of CLL patients, with the drop in CD64 expression correlating with the disease progression and advanced Rai stages.
6 28972490 No appreciable changes were detected in the expression of CD32 and CD16 throughout the experiments.
7 28972490 The diminished expression of CD64 and CD180 provides possible explanation for the impaired phagocytic function of monocytes in CLL, as FcγRI receptor interaction with opsonising IgG1, and CD180 with the ligands on S. aureus might affect the ability of monocytes to attach and to engulf S. aureus particles and effectively eliminate the pathogen.
