Abstract
The predictor of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) mobilized in peripheral blood (PB) remains unknown. We retrospectively examined the relationship between serum cholesterol level and CD34-positive cells mobilized with granulocyte stimulating factor in PB. PB- mobilized CD34-positive cells were significantly higher in patients with high titers of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) than in patients with normal levels (average total cholesterol, 122.94 vs. 51.03/μL, p<0.05; average LDL-C 130.07 vs. 53.77, p<0.05). Multivariable analysis showed that LDL-C significantly influenced PB-mobilized CD34-positive cells, suggesting that LDL-C may be an effective biomarker for mobilization of HSCs in PB.Entities:
