Neuropsychiatric Symptoms Mimicking Dementia in a Patient Treated With Imatinib
ABSTRACT Tyrosine kinase inhibitors are the cornerstone of chronic myeloid leukemia treatment. Newer agents have more potency and a broader spectrum of action, but also a higher potential for neuropsychiatric side effects. We present a case of a patient on imatinib who developed progressive cognitive, mood, and behavioral alterations.

EnABLing Cathepsin-Driven Melanoma Metastasis
Metastatic melanoma remains incurable for many due to its aggressive nature. Secreted cathepsins promote metastasis by cleaving matrix and activating pro-invasive proteases.

Interaction of Abl Tyrosine Kinases with SOCS3 Impairs Its Suppressor Function in Tumorigenesis
Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) is involved in Bcr-Abl–induced tumorigenesis. However, how SOCS3 interacts with Bcr-Abl and is regulated by Abl kinases remains largely unknown.

The COOH terminus of the c-Abl tyrosine kinase contains distinct F- and G-actin binding domains with bundling activity [PDF]
The myristoylated form of c-Abl protein, as well as the P210bcr/abl protein, have been shown by indirect immunofluorescence to associate with F-actin stress fibers in fibroblasts. Analysis of deletion mutants of c-Abl stably expressed in fibroblasts maps

Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in Bionanotechnology: Current Advances and Future Perspectives
Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) enables the nanoscale mapping of electrostatic surface potentials. While widely applied in materials science, its use in biological systems remains emerging. This review presents recent advances in KPFM applied to biological samples and provides a critical perspective on current limitations and future directions for

Small interfering RNA against BCR-ABL transcripts sensitize mutated T315I cells to nilotinib
Background Selective inhibition of the BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase by RNA interference has been demonstrated in leukemic cells. We, therefore, evaluated specific BCR-ABL small interfering RNA silencing in BCR-ABL-positive cell lines, including those ...

Localization of tyrosine kinase-coding region in v-abl oncogene by the expression of v-abl-encoded proteins in bacteria [PDF]
A series of plasmids containing different segments of the v-abl oncogene have been constructed to express different portions of the v- abl protein in bacteria.

Inhibition of interleukin-1 signaling enhances elimination of tyrosine kinase inhibitor treated CML stem cells [PDF]
Treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) with BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) fails to eliminate leukemia stem cells (LSC). Patients remain at risk for relapse, and additional approaches to deplete CML LSC are needed to enhance the ...

Abl Is Able to Inhibit Cell Engulfment
Programmed cell death is essential to development—it's how the tiny mitten of a growing hand becomes a glove of individuated fingers, for instance. To dispose of all those cellular corpses, nearby cells (or roving specialists such as the immune system's macrophages) engulf their dead neighbors and digest the remains.

Laser treatment of materials is a versatile technique for generating ordered surface structures. Nevertheless, such structures are the result of laser parameters such as laser pulse fluence. We demonstrate that homogeneous low special frequency laser‐induced periodic surface structures are contingent on both single and effective fluence dose and can be
