A 79-year-old Japanese woman diagnosed with pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) associated with thymoma and hypogammaglobulinemia (Good's syndrome) was successfully treated with cyclosporine-A after a thymectomy. We further studied the etiology of this case. A burst-forming unit erythroid (BFU-E) assay with SCF restored erythropoiesis in vitro. SCF production was reduced in bone marrow stromal cells; however, it was restored in vitro and in vivo after cyclosporine-A treatment.
一名79岁的日本女性被诊断为与胸腺瘤和低丙种球蛋白血症(古德综合征)相关的纯红细胞再生障碍性贫血(PRCA),胸腺切除术后用环孢素A成功治疗。我们进一步研究了该病例的病因。用干细胞因子(SCF)进行的红系爆式集落形成单位(BFU-E)测定在体外恢复了红细胞生成。骨髓基质细胞中SCF的产生减少;然而,环孢素A治疗后在体外和体内均恢复。
