ICCS/ESCCA consensus guidelines to detect GPI ‐deficient cells in paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and related disorders part 4 – assay validation and quality assurance
Over the past six years, a diverse group of stakeholders have put forth recommendations regarding the analytical validation of flow cytometric methods and described in detail the differences between cell‐based and traditional soluble analyte assay validations. This manuscript is based on these general recommendations as well as the published experience of experts in the area of PNH testing. The goal is to provide practical assay‐specific guidelines for the validation of high‐sensitivity flow cytometric PNH assays. Examples of the reports and validation data described herein are provided in Supporting Information. © ...

ICCS/ESCCA consensus guidelines to detect GPI ‐deficient cells in paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and related disorders part 2 – reagent selection and assay optimization for high‐sensitivity testing
Since publication in 2010 of the International Clinical Cytometry Society (ICCS) Consensus Guidelines for detection of Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) by flow cytometery, a great deal of work has been performed to develop, optimize, and validate a number of high‐sensitivity assays to detect PNH phenotypes in both red blood cells (RBCs) and white blood cells (WBCs, neutrophils, and monocytes). This section (Part 2) of the updated ICCS PNH Consensus Guidelines will focus on specific instrument setup for these PNH assays, the identification and proper testing of appropriate antibody conjugates and combinations the...

ICCS/ESCCA consensus guidelines to detect GPI ‐deficient cells in paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and related disorders part 1 – clinical utility
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) arises as a consequence of the non‐malignant clonal expansion of one or more hematopoietic stem cells with an acquired somatic mutation of the PIGA gene (Brodsky RA. Blood 113 (2009) 6522–6527). Progeny of affected stem cells are deficient in glycosyl phosphatidylinositol–anchored proteins (GPI‐APs). This deficiency is readily detected by flow cytometry. Though this seems straightforward, the clinical utility of this testing requires that the ordering clinician understand not only the characteristics of the test, but also the biology of the underlying disease, and the clini...

Human innate lymphoid cells (ILCs): Toward a uniform immune ‐phenotyping
Helper innate lymphoid cells (ILCs), the most recently identified population of the ILC family, play a fundamental role in the restoration of tissue integrity, in the protection against infiltrating pathogens as well as in tumor immune‐surveillance. ILCs have been divided into three main subsets, ILC1, ILC2, and ILC3, that can be specifically activated by different signals coming either indirectly from pathogens or from other cell populations, including cancer cells. Following activation, ILCs are in turn able to promptly secrete a wide range of soluble mediators that modulate effector cell functions. The discovery and t...
