Preserved cellular immunity in smoldering acute leukemia [PDF]
, 1976 "Smoldering acute leukemia", a variant of acute myelogenous leukemia, has been recognized with frequent incidence in recent years. This is chracterized by benign clinical course, poor physical findings, leukopenia and mild anemia in the ...

Preleukemia: hematological disorders prior to onset of leukemia [PDF]
, 1975 Published data on Japanese leukemia patients with a preleukemic hematological disorder were assessed. The reexamined cases were from the "Japona Centra Revuo Medicina" reported during the period from 1952 to 1971.

Identification of cooperating genetic events in acute leukemia [PDF]
, 2009 The genetic alterations associated with acute leukemia can be divided into two functional groups. The class I mutations enhance cellular proliferation and survival by constitutive activation of mainly protein tyrosine kinases signaling pathways.

In vivo imaging enables high resolution preclinical trials on patients' leukemia cells growing in mice. [PDF]
, 2012 Xenograft mouse models represent helpful tools for preclinical studies on human tumors. For modeling the complexity of the human disease, primary tumor cells are by far superior to established cell lines.

Hypomethylation and expression of BEX2, IGSF4 and TIMP3 indicative of MLL translocations in Acute Myeloid Leukemia [PDF]
, 2009 Background Translocations of the Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene occur in a subset (5%) of acute myeloid leukemias (AML), and in mixed phenotype acute leukemias in infancy - a disease with extremely poor prognosis.

Targeting the MLL complex in acute leukemia [PDF]
, 2014 Chromosomal rearrangements leading mostly to fusion oncoproteins of the Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene occur in about 10% of all patients with acute leukemia and are often associated with poor clinical outcome, emphasizing the need for new treatment ...

Targeting the acute promyelocytic leukemia-associated fusion proteins PML/RARα and PLZF/RARα with interfering peptides [PDF]
, 2012 In acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), hematopoietic differentiation is blocked and immature blasts accumulate in the bone marrow and blood. APL is associated with chromosomal aberrations, including t(15;17) and t(11;17).

Leukemia autopsies in Japan [PDF]
, 1964 For the purpose to know whether the annual increase of leukemia incidence in Japan is due to some leukemogenic factors or due to the increased detection rate, the authors made some statistical survey of autopsy cases in which the diagnosis is reliable ...

Optimization of the indications for allogeneic stem cell transplantation in Acute Myeloid Leukemia based on interactive diagnostic strategies [PDF]
, 2011 The indications for allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) represent a real challenge due to the clinical and genetic heterogeneity of the disorder.

Clinical and molecular characterization of early T-cell precursor leukemia : a high-risk subgroup in adult T-ALL with a high frequency of FLT3 mutations [PDF]
, 2012 A subgroup of pediatric acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) was characterized by a gene expression profile comparable to that of early T-cell precursors (ETPs) with a highly unfavorable outcome.
