The aims of this flow cytometry study were to quantify B lymphoid precursors known as hématogones across age and clinical conditions and to study the immunophenotypic profile of these benign immature B cells. A total of 406 consecutive marrow specimens were analyzed for hématogones using 4-color flow cytometry during a 19 month period (60% males and 40% females). The age range was 3 months to 89 years. Hématogones were present in 80% of the specimens. Morphologic analysis of the smears from each patient showed small numbers of hématogones (<13% of total cellularity). The B cell population was defined by CD19 CD45 bright positivity, coexpression of other B lineage markers: CD20, CD22, CD10, CD29, CD38 and CD58 in addition to HLA-DR and CD34. In our study we found a significant decline in hématogones with increasing age but a broad range was found at all ages. Marrow from some adults contained relatively high numbers. Diagnosis in these patients included cytopenias, infections, and neoplastic diseases. Distinction of hématogones is critical for disease management particularly after therapy of paediatric B acute lymphoblastic leukaemia to monitor for minimal residual disease.

The influence of the age of the red blood cell (RBC) within its 120-day lifecycle at the time of blood donation on the RBC storage lesion is not well understood. Expression of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) (CD44, CD47, CD58 and CD147), glycophorin A (GPA) and phosphatidylserine (PS) on young and old RBCs density separated prior to storage of the RBC concentrate was determined by flow cytometry. Older RBCs showed significantly reduced expression of GPA throughout storage and CD44 and CD147 from Day 28 onwards compared to young RBCs. Storage in the presence of leukocytes caused a significant decline in the expression of CD44, CD58, CD147 and GPA, whereas RBCs that were pre-storage leukocyte depleted maintained a relatively consistent level of expression throughout storage. PS was not detected at the external RBC membrane of young or old RBCs during storage. Increased levels of annexin V were detected in the supernatant of RBCs stored in the presence of leukocytes, with significantly greater supernatant levels found for old RBCs compared to young RBCs. These findings provide new insight into the RBC storage lesion and indicate that RBC age at the time of donation impacts upon the quality of stored RBC concentrates.
