>Hello All;
>
> We have a patient here who we suspect has paroxysmal Nocturnal
>Hemoglobinuria (PNH), This disease represent a defficenty of numerous
>leukocyte antigens. The PIG protein or CD59 seems to be the critical
>lacking protein in these patients. While red cells are the ones most
>effected by the complement, white cells also lack this protein, and thus
>we can measure this by a simple flow procedure. My questions are two fold;
>
>1. does any one out there do CD59 staining, and would you like to tell me
>how I can SEND this sample to you. I really do not want to get into this
>bag of worms.
>
>2. Since no one probally does this assay in real life, where can I find CD
>59. I searched all my Catalogues, and no one seems to have it. Any
>pointers would wonderful.
>
>well thanks for all the help. take care -- rr
