Surface marker study?

This was in one of the diagnosis reports. I haven't understood what this means - "Surface marker study - Scanty blasts gated show myeloid phenotype. (Blasts are positive for CD34, CD117, CD33 and CD13)."

What are these CD34, CD117, CD33 and CD13?

And I was also curious about chromosonal abnormalities. Some people have no chromosonal abnormalities, but still have low RBC's, WBC's and/or platelets. Why or rather how? Some easy to understand explanation for this?
