Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate monoclonal antibodies that may be useful for immunophenotyping myeloid cells in bone marrow of dogs. SAMPLE POPULATION: Bone marrow specimens obtained from 5 dogs. DESIGN: Specimens were labeled with monoclonal antibodies that detected CD18, major histocompatability antigen class-II (MHC class-II), CD14, and Thy-1. Cells labeled with each of the antibodies were isolated by use of a fluorescence-activated cell sorter. Differential cell counts of sorted cells were used to determine cells that were labeled by each of the various antibodies. RESULTS: Myeloid cells labeled with anti-CD18 antibody included granulocytes, lymphocytes, and monocytes-macrophages. Immature and mature granulocytes were labeled. Lymphocytes, monocytes-macrophages, and eosinophils were labeled with anti-Thy-1 antibody. Cells labeled with anti-MHC-class II antibody included approximately 9% of bone marrow cells, which consisted almost exclusively of lymphocytes and monocytes-macrophages. Approximately 4% of bone marrow cells were labeled with anti-CD14 antibody, with > 90% of sorted cells being monocytes-macrophages. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Four monoclonal antibodies for use in detecting subpopulations of canine bone marrow cells were evaluated. These antibodies should be useful in differentiating the origin of leukemic cells in dogs.
