Differential expression of miR-17∼92 identifies BCL2 as a therapeutic target in BCR-ABL-positive B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia

open access: yesLeukemia, 2013
Despite advances in allogeneic stem cell transplantation, BCR-ABL-positive acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) remains a high-risk disease, necessitating the development of novel treatment strategies.

Model Mice for BCR/ABL-Positive Leukemias

Blood Cells, Molecules, and Diseases, 2001
p210bcr/abl is detected in almost all chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) patients and a significant number of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cases. It is generated by a reciprocal chromosomal translocation, t(9;22) (q34;q11), and the enhanced kinase activity of the protein is believed to be implicated in the pathogenesis of the diseases. To examine

Current and future management of Ph/BCR-ABL positive ALL

Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy, 2014
Following the introduction of targeted therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) at the beginning of the past decade, the outcome of patients with Philadelphia-chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL) has dramatically improved. Presently, the use of refined programs with first/second generation TKI's and chemotherapy together with

Mechanisms of resistance to imatinib mesylate in Bcr-Abl–positive leukemias

Current Opinion in Oncology, 2002
The constitutive activity of the Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase plays a critical role in the molecular pathogenesis of not only the chronic but also the accelerated and blastic phases of chronic myelogenous leukemia. Therefore, Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase is a rational therapeutic target in all phases of chronic myelogenous leukemia.

Management of Bcr–Abl-positive leukemias with dasatinib

Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy, 2007
Dasatinib is a novel, potent, multi-targeted kinase inhibitor that is approved in Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia following imatinib failure. Clinical trials have demonstrated its activity across all phases of CML. Dasatinib was superior to high-dose imatinib in a randomized,

Nuclear positioning of the BACH2 gene in BCR‐ABL positive leukemic cells

Genes, Chromosomes and Cancer, 2006
AbstractBACH2 is a B‐cell‐specific transcription repressor and is also know as a tumor suppressor in B cell malignancy. Expression of BACH2 is induced in BCR‐ABL positive lymphoid cell lines including BV173 by imatinib, a molecular targeting agent for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).

Function of STAT5 Isoforms in Bcr-Abl Positive Cells

Blood, 2011
Abstract Abstract 1313 Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is caused by expression of the BCR-ABL oncogene product which exerts constitutive tyrosine kinase activity. Specific inhibition of the BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase activity by small tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is now well established as initial therapy for newly ...

Jumping translocation of 1q in a BCR/ABL-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Cancer Genetics and Cytogenetics, 2005
Jumping translocations (JT) are rare chromosomal abnormalities in which an identical copy of a chromosomal region (donor) is translocated to a different chromosome (acceptor). Chromosome 1 is often involved as donor chromosome. JTs of the long arm of chromosome 1 (1q) or parts of it are associated with a poor outcome.
