| secondary leukaemia | A leukaemia arising from either previous chemotherapy or radiotherapy or as the development of a pre-existing condition, such as myelodysplasia. Origin: Gr. Haima = blood (13 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| human leukaemia-associated antigens | Antigen's on the surface of leukaemic cells which seem not to be present on the surfaces of the same type of normal cells; the myeloblast antigen of acute myelogenous leukaemia found in chronic myelogenous leukaemia is thought to be associated with a "blastic" transformation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| smoldering leukaemia | A condition in which the bone marrow does not function normally. It does not produce enough blood cells. This condition may progress and become acute leukaemia. Smoldering leukaemia also is called myelodysplastic syndrome or preleukaemia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| splenic leukaemia | A form of leukaemia in which there is an unusually great degree of enlargement of the spleen, as observed frequently in chronic granulocytic leukaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Naegeli type of monocytic leukaemia | A variant of granulocytic leukaemia with monocytosis in the peripheral blood. Synonym: Naegeli type of monocytic leukaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neutrophilic leukaemia | An unusual form of chronic granulocytic leukaemia in which the greatly increased number of leukocytes in the circulating blood are mature polymorphonuclear neutrophils, with virtually no young or immature granulocytes being observed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subleukaemic leukaemia | A form of leukaemia in which abnormal cells are present in the peripheral blood, but the total leukocyte count is not elevated. Synonym: hypoleukaemia, leukopenic myelosis, subleukaemic myelosis, subleukaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Swiss mouse leukaemia virus | A murine leukaemia virus producing leukaemia of the reticulum-cell type with massive infiltration of liver, spleen, and bone marrow. It infects dba/2 and swiss mice. (12 Dec 1998) |
| embryonal leukaemia | A form of leukaemia in which the abnormal cells are thought to be the precursors of lymphoblasts, myeloblasts, or monoblasts. Synonym: embryonal leukaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| eosinophilic leukaemia | Eosinophilocytic leukaemia, a form of granulocytic leukaemia in which there are conspicuous numbers of eosinophilic granulocytes in the tissues and circulating blood, or in which such cells are predominant; in chronic disease of this type, the total white blood cell count may be as high as 200,000 to 250,000 per cu mm, with as many as 80 or 90% being eosinophils, chiefly adult forms. (05 Mar 2000) |
| feline leukaemia | A leukaemic disorder of cats caused by feline leukaemia virus, a member of the family Retroviridae, and characterised by depression and mild fever, and by the presence of tumours in the mediastinal and mesenteric lymph nodes, followed by multiple tumour formation throughout the body; during the terminal stages of the disease lymphoblasts may appear in the peripheral blood. (05 Mar 2000) |
| feline leukaemia-sarcoma virus complex | Viruses from cats that induce transmissible leukaemia or transmissible fibrosarcoma in kittens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| feline leukaemia virus | A retrovirus of the Oncornovirinae subfamily causing many proliferative (neoplastic) and degenerative (blastopenic) diseases in domestic cats, including lymphosarcoma, thymic atrophy, immune complex glomerulonephritis, foetal abortions and resorptions, and several myeloproliferative and myelodegenerative conditions; it also causes immunosuppression in infected cats. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Friend leukaemia virus | A murine leukaemia virus producing leukaemia of the reticulum-cell type with massive infiltration of liver, spleen, and bone marrow. It infects dba/2 and swiss mice. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Friend murine leukaemia virus | <virology> Murine leukaemia virus isolated by Charlotte Friend in 1956 whilst attempting to transmit the Erlich ascites tumour by cell free extracts. Causes an unusual erythroblastosis like leukaemia, in which anaemia is accompanied by large numbers of nucleated red cells in blood. does not carry a host derived oncogene, but seems to induce tumours by proviral insertion into specific regions of host genome.
