The aim of this work was to evaluate the phytohaemagglutinin-induced aggregation of circulating neutrophils isolated from 25 patients affected by chronic myeloproliferative syndromes (polycythaemia vera, chronic myeloid leukaemia in chronic phase, and essential thrombocythaemia). The results showed a lesser aggregating capacity in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) and an opposite behaviour in polycythaemia vera and essential thrombocythaemia. Patients with polycythaemia vera whose neutrophils showed a greater aggregating capacity were shown to have had various vascular complications.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to evaluate the phytohaemagglutinin-induced aggregation of circulating neutrophils isolated from 25 patients affected by chronic myeloproliferative syndromes (polycythaemia vera, chronic myeloid leukaemia in chronic phase, and essential thrombocythaemia). The results showed a lesser aggregating capacity in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) and an opposite behaviour in polycythaemia vera and essential thrombocythaemia. Patients with polycythaemia vera whose neutrophils showed a greater aggregating capacity were shown to have had various vascular complications.File in questo prodotto:
