Q

Paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) are strongly associated with what condition?

What antibodies strongly associated with PNP?

A

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma/ CLL

Periplakin/Envoplakin

17
Q

Test for vWF disease?

A

1)vWF antigen - check vWF protein level

2)vwF RCo (gold standard) - check vWF quality
: Usage of Ristocetin (abx) to promote platelet aggregation + vWF release

3)F8 levels

18
Q

CAR T-cell therapy function?

A

Modify T cells receptors to enable them to recognize cancer cells and attack via perforin + grannzymes

Receptors becomes chimeric

  • Antigen-binding
  • T-cell activating function
19
Q

BiTE therapy function?

A

Form link between T cell and tumor cells

-T cell perform cytotoxic stuff INDEPENDENT of MHC I/co-stimulatory

20
Q

Hepatic sinusoidal obsturction syndrome usually a/w what?

A

HSCT - post 1 month

21
Q

Repitilase does what?

A

Purified reptilian acts as thrombin

Cleaves fibrinopeptide A - generates fibrin

22
Q

Thrombin does what?

A

Cleaves both fibrinopeptide A and B to generate fibrin clot

23
Q

NADPH source in RBC relies on?

A

Pentose monophosphate shunt ( the only way)

24
Q

In Polycythaemic Rubae Vera - which mutation has best prognosis?

A

CARL+ve

2nd is isolated JAK+ve

25
Q

CLL is disorder in what?

A

B cell - hypogammaglobulinemia

26
Q

DLBCL

  • DNA microanalysis that has good prognosis?
  • DNA microanalysis that has bad prognosis?
A

Good prognosis - Germinal B-cell DLBCL

Bad prognosis -Activated B-cell DLBCL (ABC)

27

Hairy Cell Leukemia does not express what?

A

CD5

30
Q

How to distinguish anemia of chronic disease and anemia of iron deficiency?
(Functional status IDA)

A

sTFR - soluble transferrin receptor INCREASED IN IRON DEFICIENCY

low in chronic disease - hemachromatosis/hypoalbuminemia

31
Q

Which blood group more susceptible to Cholera?

A

O group - unclear mechanism

32
Q

What differentiate CLL from CML?

A

CD23 POSITIVE

Smudge cells

33
Q

When Treat CLL?

A

SALE

Splenomegaly/Symptomatic - B symptoms
AIHA/ITP
Lymphocytosis - doubling >50% in 2 months
Enemia/Thrombocytopenia
