LP16471-2 Interleukin 3
The Interleukins belong to the family termed cytokines. They are peptides used by immune and inflammatory cells to communicate and control cell operations. The cytokines have some similar actions to the Growth Factors but Growth Factors regulate proliferation of non-immune cells. Interleukin 3 is a 20,000 - 26,000 molecular weight glycoprotein originally called Multi-Colony Stimulating Factor. It is released primarily by activated T Cells. Its primary target cells are early hemopoietic cells. Interleukin 3 also stimulates proliferation of macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils, megakaryocytes, and mast cells. Interleukin 3 activates pluripotent stem cells giving rise to a wide range of cell types. It also induces 20a-Steroid Dehydrogenase in T cells and Leukotriene C4. It works in conjunction with Interleukin 6 to hasten the emergence of blast cell colony-forming cells.

LP7238-1 Body fld
The LOINC "Body fld" System represents body fluids other than serum, plasma, blood, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid. When a LOINC term with the System "Body fld" is used, the specific specimen source or body fluid type should be reported elsewhere with the result. Where more specific terms for pleural, peritoneal, synovial fluid, etc. exist, we encourage you to use the more specific terms. In contrast to "Body fld", the System "Asp" in LOINC represents the fluid withdrawn during an aspiration procedure from an abnormal collection of fluid, such as from an abscess or cyst. "Asp" is used for abnormal fluid collections that are aspirated, while "Body fld" is used for named body fluids, such as synovial fluid or peritoneal fluid, that are not inherently pathologic.
