lüll Animal models for acquired bone marrow failure syndromes Chen JClin Med Res 2005[May]; 3 (2): 102-8Bone marrow failure is a disease characterized by a drastic decline in the marrow's functional ability to produce mature blood cells. Aplastic anemia, a disease in which patients have essentially empty bone marrow accompanied by severe anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia, presents a paradigm for bone marrow failure. Damage to the marrow may first result from exposure to toxic chemicals, drug overdose, radiation, and viral infection; however, it is the extended immune-mediated reaction that causes massive destruction of hematopoietic cells and leads to marrow hypoplasia and peripheral pancytopenia. In recent years, animal models of acquired bone marrow failure syndromes have helped to strengthen our understanding of the mechanisms causing bone marrow failure. In this review, animal models for bone marrow failure are summarized by two groups: 1) bone marrow failure induced by toxic chemicals and drugs such as benzene, busulfan, and chloramphenicol, and radiation, and 2) models developed by an immune-related mechanism such as viral infection or foreign lymphocyte infusion.|Anemia, Aplastic/etiology[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Benzene/toxicity[MESH]|Bone Marrow Diseases/chemically induced/*etiology/immunology[MESH]|Busulfan/toxicity[MESH]|Chloramphenicol/toxicity[MESH]|Disease Models, Animal[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Mice[MESH]|Radiation Injuries, Experimental/etiology[MESH]|Syndrome[MESH]|Virus Diseases/complications[MESH] |
