Abstract:
This study was purposed to investigate the relation of monocyte counts in peripheral blood (PB) at the first collection of allograft to the amount of CD34(+) cells in the mixture of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF)-primed bone marrow graft (G-BM) and rhG-CSF mobilized peripheral stem cell grafts (G-PB). 70 healthy donors were treated with rhG-CSF [5 microg/(kg.d)] injected subcutaneously for 5 consecutive days. Bone marrow grafts and peripheral blood grafts were harvested on the 4th and 5th days respectively. Blood cell counts at the first collection of allografts were determined by blood analyzer XL2100, the amount of CD34(+) cells in G-BM and G-PB were determined by flow cytometry. The results showed that the monocyte counts in the PB of the 70 healthy donors were (1.15 +/- 0.60) x 10(9)/L. The amount of total CD34(+) cells in the G-BM, G-PB and mixture grafts were (5.85 +/- 2.93) x 10(7), (1.33 +/- 0.77) x 10(8), and (1.92 +/- 0.86) x 10(8) respectively. Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis indicated that the counts of monocyte at the first collection of allografts correlated positively with the amount of total CD34(+) cells in the G-BM (correlation coefficient, r = 0.265, p = 0.027), G-PB (r = 0.340, p = 0.004) and mixture grafts (r = 0.398, p = 0.001). Stepwise Linear Regression Model analysis also showed that the counts of monocytes in the PB correlated positively with the amount of CD34(+) cells in the G-BM, G-PB and mixture grafts (p = 0.027, 0.004 and 0.001 respectively). The sensitivity and specificity of the monocyte counts to predict the amount of CD34(+) cells in the mixture grafts were 71% and 70% respectively (p = 0.007). In conclusion, the monocyte counts in the PB at the first collection of allografts after rhG-CSF treatment of healthy donors may be a simple and practical indicator for harvest of CD34(+) cell amount in the mixture grafts.
