Abstract
The 10-color panel consisting of 21 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is developed as a one-tube panel to detect leukemia and lymphoma cells in all hematopoietic cell lineages. In particular, this tube is mentioned for a fast screening to identify aberrant cells in samples suspected for malignant cell localization and to enable comprehensive immunophenotyping of samples with low cell counts. The panel contains mAbs for selection of the populations and mAbs against target antigens on the various hematopoietic maturation stages. Due to the limited number of PMTs in most used flow cytometers for clinical purposes, stacking of conjugates in one color is needed to include all relevant markers for simultaneous analysis of the aberrant cells. The 21-mAb panel is tested on peripheral blood (PB), and bone marrow (BM) samples and enables an efficient and correct identification of hematological malignancies. This panel improves the diagnostic potential.

Abstract
The leucocyte common antigen, protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C (PTPRC), also known as CD45, is a transmembrane glycoprotein, expressed on almost all haematopoietic cells except for mature erythrocytes, and is an essential regulator of T and B cell antigen receptor-mediated activation. Disruption of the equilibrium between protein tyrosine kinase and phosphatase activity (from CD45 and others) can result in immunodeficiency, autoimmunity, or malignancy. CD45 is normally present on the cell surface, therefore it works upstream of a large signalling network which differs between cell types, and thus the effects of CD45 on these cells are also different. However, it is becoming clear that CD45 plays an essential role in the innate immune system and this is likely to be a key area for future research. In this review of PTPRC (CD45), its structure and biological activities as well as abnormal expression of CD45 in leukaemia and lymphoma will be discussed.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) add a layer of complexity to the proteome through the addition of biochemical moieties to specific residues of proteins, altering their structure, function and/or localization. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based techniques are at the forefront of PTM analysis due to their ability to detect large numbers of modified proteins with a high level of sensitivity and specificity. The low stoichiometry of modified peptides means fractionation and enrichment techniques are often performed prior to MS to improve detection yields. Immuno-based techniques remain popular, with improvements in the quality of commercially available modification-specific antibodies facilitating the detection of modified proteins with high affinity. PTM-focused studies on blood cancers have provided information on altered cellular processes, including cell signaling, apoptosis and transcriptional regulation, that contribute to the malignant phenotype. Furthermore, the mechanism of action of many blood cancer therapies, such as kinase inhibitors, involves inhibiting or modulating protein modifications. Continued optimization of protocols and techniques for PTM analysis in blood cancer will undoubtedly lead to novel insights into mechanisms of malignant transformation, proliferation, and survival, in addition to the identification of novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets. This review discusses techniques used for PTM analysis and their applications in blood cancer research.

Abstract
We report a time and cost-efficient microfluidic chip for screening the leukemia cells having three specific antigens. In this method, the target blast cells are double sorted with immunomagnetic beads and captured by the 3rd antibody immobilized on the gold surface in a microfluidic chip. The captured blast cells in the chip were imaged using a bright-field optical microscope and images were analyzed to quantify the cells. First sorting was performed with nano size immunomagnetic beads and followed by 2nd sorting where micron size immunomagnetic beads were used. The low-cost microfluidic platform is made of PMMA and glass including micro size gold pads. The developed microfluidic platform was optimized with cultured B type lymphoblast cells and tested with the samples of leukemia patients. The 8 bone marrow samples of 4 leukemia patients on the initial diagnosis and on the 15th day after the start of the chemotherapy treatment were tested both with the developed microfluidic platform and the flow cytometry. A 99% statistical agreement between the two methods shows that the microfluidic chip is able to monitor the decrease in the number of blast cells due to the chemotherapy. The experiments with the patient samples demonstrate that the developed system can perform relative measurements and have a potential to monitor the patient response to the applied therapy and to enable personalized dose adjustment.

Abstract
Multiparametric flow cytometry is a powerful diagnostic tool that permits rapid assessment of cellular antigen expression to quickly provide immunophenotypic information suitable for disease classification. This chapter describes a general approach for the identification of abnormal lymphoid populations by flow cytometry, including B, T, NK, and Hodgkin lymphoma cells suitable for the clinical and research environment. Knowledge of the common patterns of antigen expression of normal lymphoid cells is critical to permit identification of abnormal populations at disease presentation and for minimal residual disease assessment. We highlight an overview of procedures for processing and immunophenotyping non-Hodgkin B- and T-cell lymphomas and also describe our strategy for the sensitive and specific diagnosis of classical Hodgkin lymphoma and nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma.

Abstract
Detecting the number of pathological lymphoma cells and lymphocyte subtypes in blood is helpful for clinical diagnosis and typing of lymphoma. In the current study, cell type is identified by cell morphological features and immunolabeled lymphocyte subtypes. Red blood cells and leukocytes were separated using a microfluidic cell chip based on physical blood cell parameters, and leukocytes were identified using five characteristic parameters: energy variance, entropy variance, moment of inertia variance, color mean, and cell area individually. The number of red blood cells that could come into contact with the leukocyte membrane was ≤2 based on the microfluidic injection flow rate of microfluidic chips. Anti-CD3 and anti-CD19 antibodies were used for immunofluorescence staining of T-lymphocyte and B-lymphocyte surface antigens, respectively. The results suggested that the microfluidic assay could detect lymphocyte surface antigen markers and intact leukocytes. Therefore, we report a one-step microfluidic chip for classifying hematological lymphoma cells based on the physical parameters of cells, which can simultaneously measure the overall morphology of blood cells and immunolabeling of lymphocyte surface antigens in one step, solving the current problem of detecting subtypes of hematological lymphoma cells based on multiple methods and multi-step detection.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has become a powerful approach to improve the way we diagnose and treat cancer. In particular, nanoparticles (NPs) possess unique features for enhanced sensitivity and selectivity for earlier detection of circulating cancer biomarkers. In vivo, NPs enhance the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer agents when compared with conventional chemotherapy, improving vectorization and delivery, and helping to overcome drug resistance. Nanomedicine has been mostly focused on solid cancers due to take advantage from the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect experienced by tissues in the close vicinity of tumors, which enhance nanomedicine's accumulation and, consequently, improve efficacy. Nanomedicines for leukemia and lymphoma, where EPR effect is not a factor, are addressed differently from solid tumors. Nevertheless, NPs have provided innovative approaches to simple and non-invasive methodologies for diagnosis and treatment in liquid tumors. In this review, we consider the state of the art on different types of nanoconstructs for the management of liquid tumors, from preclinical studies to clinical trials. We also discuss the advantages of nanoplatforms for theranostics and the central role played by NPs in this combined strategy.
