Summary
The kinetics of granulopoiesis and neutrophils was studied in a case of cyclic neutropenia using labeling techniques (3HTDR, 3H-DFP) combined with serial quantitative evaluations of the granulopoietic cells. It was demonstrated that the oscillation of the neutrophil count was caused by rhythmic fluctuations of the neutrophil production rate due to periodic changes in the proliferation activity of granulopoiesis. The results could be interpreted as indicating pathological regulation of granulopoiesis.
