NURS 316 CHAPTER 12Exam Questions
and answers
Agranulocytes - ✅✅White blood cells without granules in their cytoplasm,
including lymphocytes and monocytes.
Allogenic Hematological Stem Cell Transplant - ✅✅Transplant using stem cells
from a genetically matched donor.
Autologous Hematological Stem Cell Transplant - ✅✅Transplant using the
patient's own stem cells.
Bands - ✅✅Immature neutrophils; elevated levels may indicate infection or
inflammation.
Basophils - ✅✅Granulocytes involved in allergic reactions and inflammation;
release histamine.
BCR-ABL Oncogene - ✅✅Abnormal gene fusion seen in chronic myeloid
leukemia (CML); leads to uncontrolled cell growth.
Bence Jones Proteins - ✅✅Abnormal proteins found in urine of patients with
multiple myeloma.
Blast Cells - ✅✅Immature blood cells; high levels often indicate leukemia.
, B Lymphocytes (B Cells) - ✅✅White blood cells responsible for producing
antibodies.
CAR-T Cell Therapy - ✅✅Cancer treatment using genetically modified T cells to
target tumor cells.
Dendritic Cell - ✅✅Antigen-presenting immune cell that activates T cells.
Differentiation Syndrome - ✅✅Potentially life-threatening complication of
leukemia treatment; involves fever, fluid buildup, and organ dysfunction.
Eosinophil - ✅✅Granulocyte involved in allergic responses and parasitic
infections.
Granulocyte - ✅✅White blood cells with granules; includes neutrophils,
eosinophils, and basophils.
Immunophenotyping - ✅✅Lab technique to identify cells based on surface
markers; used in diagnosing blood cancers.
Immunotherapy - ✅✅Treatment that boosts or modifies the immune system to
fight disease.
Leukapheresis - ✅✅Procedure to remove excess white blood cells from the
blood.
