BACKGROUND: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has been well recognized as an exemplary instance of a malignant disease characterized by a distinctive molecular occurrence, namely the presence of the breakpoint cluster region (BCR)-c-ABL oncogene 1 (ABL1 ...

t(14;18)(q32;q21) translocation is an important genetic feature of follicular lymphoma resulting in antiapoptotic B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) protein overexpression. On chromosome 18 breakpoint-site variation is high but does not affect BCL2.

VNTR polymorphism in the breakpoint region of ABL1 and susceptibility to bladder cancer
Background ABL1 is primarily known as a leukemia-related oncogene due to translocation, but about 2.2% of ABL1 mutations have been identified in bladder cancer, and high expression in solid cancer has also been detected.

Cancer chromosome breakpoints cluster in geneārich genomic regions [PDF]
AbstractCancer cells are characterized by chromosome abnormalities, of which some, in particular balanced rearrangements, are associated with distinct tumor entities and/or with specific gene rearrangements that represent important steps in the carcinogenic process.

Resistance to kinase inhibition through shortened target engagement
Imatinib, a selective inhibitor of the breakpoint cluster region (BCR)-ABL kinase, is the poster child for targeted cancer therapeutics. However, its efficacy is limited by resistance mutations.

Aberrant methylation of the major breakpoint cluster region in chronic myeloid leukemia [PDF]
Isolated hypomethylated sites exist in the major breakpoint cluster region (M-bcr) where most Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) breakpoints are located. Twenty of 50 (40%) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients were found to have aberrant hypermethylation of these sites on the rearranged M-bcr when compared with control marrows.

Myeloproliferative neoplasms and the JAK/STAT signaling pathway: an overview
Myeloproliferative neoplasms are caused by a clonal proliferation of a hematopoietic progenitor. First described in 1951 as 'Myeloproliferative Diseases' and reevaluated by the World Health Organization classification system in 2011, myeloproliferative ...
