The appearance of natural suppressor cells and circulating endothelial progenitor cells in tumour tissue has been associated with myelopoetic stimulation by growth factors that may increase fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake by the bone marrow and high FDG uptake by bone marrow in patients suffering from human malignancies is a not uncommon finding. © 2008 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Inc.

Abstract

The appearance of natural suppressor cells and circulating endothelial progenitor cells in tumour tissue has been associated with myelopoetic stimulation by growth factors that may increase fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake by the bone marrow and high FDG uptake by bone marrow in patients suffering from human malignancies is a not uncommon finding. © 2008 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Inc.
