infectious mononucleosis/phosphatase

A distinct alkaline phosphatase (phosphatase N) was demonstrated in the serum of patients with acute lymphatic leukemia, chronic lymphatic leukemia, and infectious mononucleosis. This enzyme closely resembles that extracted from the thymus of mice with lymphoma or lymphatic leukemia, both in its

On the basis of their origin and morphologic and cytochemical characteristics, atypical mononuclear cells (AMNC) in the peripheral blood of patients with the syndrome of infectious mononucleosis caused by the Epstein-Barr (EB) virus can be classified into three groups, from I to III. The AMNC groups

A characteristic alkaline phosphatase (orthophosphoric monoester hydrolase, alkaline pH optimum, EC 3.1.3.1) was detected in the sera of most patients with infectious mononucleosis, acute and chronic lymphatic leukaemia, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Burkitt's lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The

In 30 patients with mononucleosis-like syndrome (MLS) caused by cytomegalovirus (CMV), diagnosed on the basis of clinical symptoms, haematological & serological changes (after excluding Epstein-Barr virus, HAV, HBV and HCV infections), the following measurements were done weekly during consecutive

The quantitative analysis of the cells infected with Epstein-Barr virus was performed on the peripheral blood mononuclear cells from the patients with infectious mononucleosis, by using in situ hybridization with Epstein-Barr virus encoded small nuclear RNA1 (EBER1). An alkaline-phosphatase

We evaluated serial enzyme and bilirubin determinations as aids to diagnosis of Epstein-Barr virus-induced infectious mononucleosis (121 cases) and the heterophil-negative mononucleosis-like illness due to cytomegalovirus (33 cases). Laboratory evidence for either type of mononucleosis includes mild
