| | Granulocyte - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | This condition reduces the body's resistance to many infections. |  | | In common parlance, the term polymorphonuclear leukocyte often refers specifically to neutrophil granulocytes, the most abundant of the granulocytes. |  | | Their names are derived from their staining characteristics; for example, the most abundant granulocyte is the neutrophil granulocyte, which has neutrally-staining cytoplasmic granules. |

| | Major Categories of Leukemias |
 | | Within each category, the behavior of the leukemia is subdivided into acute, subacute, and aleukemia, chronic, and not otherwise specified. |  | | The major categories of leukemias are grouped by cell type--malignancies of lymphocytes and granulocytes or monocytes (also called non-lymphocytic leukemias). |  | | If the diagnostic term in the pathology report is not in the list below, be sure to consult your ICD-O manual. |

| | Mast cell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Nevertheless, both mast cells and basophils are thought to originate from bone marrow precursors expressing the CD34 molecule. |  | | However, current evidence suggests that they are generated by different precursor cells in the bone marrow. |  | | Mast cells are very similar to basophil granulocytes (a class of white blood cells) in blood; The similarities between mast cells and basophils has led many to speculate that mast cells are basophils that have "homed in" on tissues. |
