Background
"Myeloid marker antibody BM-2 reacts with early precursor and mature forms of human myeloid cells. The antibody recognizes 183kDa protein, which is identified as a myeloid specific antigen. A myelocyte is a young cell of the grnulocytic series; myeloid cells originate in the bone marrow during hematopoiesis and include all hemopoietic cells except the lymphoid cells. BM-2 can be used as a marker of granulocytes in normal tissues, as well as granulocytic sarcomas and myeloid leukemias. In studies the expression of a myeloid-specific antigen was detected on TdT-positive blast cell populations in childhood acute lymphocytic leukemia. "
