Acute Leukemia With Ph1-Like Chromosome in an LSD User
JAMA September 9, 1968 Lionel Grossbard 23 citations
A person who used several hallucinogenic drugs, including LSD, mescaline, marijuana, and amphetamines, developed acute leukemia. The patient's leukemic cells contained a Ph1-like chromosome, a finding rarely reported in acute leukemia or in individuals who have taken LSD. Lymphocytes transformed with phytohemagglutinin did not show chromosome breaks.
