Dohle bodies in blood cell, micrograph
Dohle bodies in blood cell. Light micrograph of a neutrophil white blood cell (centre) with Dohle bodies. These are small inclusions within the cells cytoplasm. This abnormality is associated with a process called toxic granulation, and is characteristic of several blood disorders. Neutrophils, like all white blood cells, are part of the bodys immune system. They are involved in the bodys immune response and help to defend the body from pathogens. Granules within their cytoplasm contain enzymes used to destroy invading organisms. Like all granulocytes, neutrophils have a multi-lobed nucleus

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Dohle bodies within a blood cell, providing a fascinating glimpse into the intricate world of cellular biology. At the center of the image, we observe a neutrophil white blood cell adorned with these small inclusions known as Dohle bodies. These structures are found within the cytoplasm of cells and are associated with an abnormality called toxic granulation, which is often indicative of various blood disorders. Neutrophils play a crucial role in our body's immune system, acting as defenders against harmful pathogens. Their multi-lobed nucleus distinguishes them as granulocytes, and their cytoplasm contains specialized granules filled with enzymes that aid in destroying invading organisms. The magnified view provided by this light micrograph allows us to appreciate the complexity and delicate nature of these cells. It serves as a reminder that even at such microscopic levels, our bodies constantly work to maintain health and combat diseases. This remarkable image not only highlights the intricacies of cellular biology but also underscores the importance of understanding haematology and pathology for medical professionals. By studying such histopathological features like Dohle bodies, scientists can gain valuable insights into diagnosing and treating various conditions related to our circulatory system.
