Enzootic Bovine Leukosis is a chronic disease caused by the bovine leukemia virus (BLV). Smudge cells, also known as Gumprecht shadows, are not simple artifacts of slide preparation, but ragged lymphoid cells found mainly in peripheral blood smears from human patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. In this study, we report the presence of Gumprecht shadows in peripheral blood from BLV-positive cattle.
牛白血病是由牛白血病病毒(BLV)引起的一种慢性疾病。Smudge 细胞,也称为 Gumprecht 阴影,并非载玻片制备的简单伪影,而是在慢性淋巴细胞白血病患者的外周血涂片上主要发现的粗糙淋巴细胞。在本研究中,我们报告了 BLV 阳性牛的外周血中存在 Gumprecht 阴影。
