Auer rods
Active
Description
Auer rods are clumps of azurophilic granular material that form elongated needles and can be seen in the cytoplasm of leukemic blasts under microscopic examination. They are composed of fused lysosomes and contain peroxidase, lysosomal enzymes, and large crystalline inclusions.
Auer rods are classically seen in myeloid blasts of M1, M2, M3, and M4 acute leukemias.
They are also used to distinguish the pre-leukemia myelodysplastic syndromes: refractory anemia with excess blasts 2 (which has Auer rods) from RAEB 1 (which does not).
