BACKGROUND BCR-ABL is a constitutively activated tyrosine kinase that causes chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Since tyrosine kinase activity is essential to the transforming function of BCR-ABL, an inhibitor of the kinase could be an effective treatment ...

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and some acute lymphoblastic leukemias are characterized by the t(9;22) chromosome, which encodes the BCR/ABL oncogene. Multiple mouse models of CML express BCR/ABL at high levels from non-Bcr promoters, resulting in the ...

Sensitive detection of pre-existing BCR-ABL kinase domain mutations in CD34+ cells of newly diagnosed chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia patients is associated with imatinib resistance: implications in the post-imatinib era. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: BCR-ABL kinase domain mutations are infrequently detected in newly diagnosed chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. Recent studies indicate the presence of pre-existing BCR-ABL mutations in a higher percentage of CML patients ...

Background The fusion oncoprotein Bcr-Abl is mostly located in the cytoplasm, which causes chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). After moving into the nucleus, the fusion protein can induce apoptosis of CML cells.

Suppression of autophagy by BCR ABL
Imatinib and second generation BCR/ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) serve now as standard therapies for patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML); however, CML stem cells are intrinsically insensitive to the cell death-inducing effects of TKIs, allowing the persistence of a "reservoir" of BCR/ABL-expressing CML-initiating cells potentially ...

Chronic myeloid leukemia stem cells are not dependent on Bcr-Abl kinase activity for their survival [PDF]
Recent evidence suggests CML stem cells are insensitive to kinase inhibitors and responsible for minimal residual disease in treated patients. We investigated whether CML stem cells, in a transgenic mouse model of CML-like disease or derived from ...

Modular PROTAC Design for the Degradation of Oncogenic BCR-ABL.
Proteolysis Targeting Chimera (PROTAC) technology is a rapidly emerging alternative therapeutic strategy with the potential to address many of the challenges currently faced in modern drug development programs.

Contributions of the RhoGEF activity of p210 BCR/ABL to disease progression [PDF]
We have previously identified a tyrosine kinase-independent, guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) activity that is contained within the region of p210 BCR/ABL that distinguishes it from p190 BCR/ABL.

Management of imatinib-resistant CML patients [PDF]
Imatinib has had marked impact on outcomes in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) patients for all stages of the disease and is endorsed by international treatment guidelines as the first line option.

MTSS1 is a critical epigenetically regulated tumor suppressor in CML [PDF]
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is driven by malignant stem cells that can persist despite therapy. We have identified Metastasis suppressor 1 (Mtss1/MIM) to be downregulated in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells from leukemic transgenic SCLtTA/Bcr ...
