Immunoprofiling of leukemic stem cells CD34+/CD38−/CD123+ delineate FLT3/ITD-positive clones [PDF]
Background Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous clonal disorder presenting with accumulation of proliferating undifferentiated blasts. Xenograft transplantation studies have demonstrated a rare population of leukemia-initiating cells called ...

Pilot Study on Mass Spectrometry–Based Analysis of the Proteome of CD34+CD123+ Progenitor Cells for the Identification of Potential Targets for Immunotherapy in Acute Myeloid Leukemia [PDF]
Targeting of leukemic stem cells with specific immunotherapy would be an ideal approach for the treatment of myeloid malignancies, but suitable epitopes are unknown.

Prognostic implications of CD123 in pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia: a single-center retrospective analysis [PDF]
IntroductionAcute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric hematologic malignancy, with the majority of cases being of B-cell origin. While many patients respond favorably to therapy, a subset experiences early relapse or poor outcomes ...

CD34+CD38-CD123+ Cells Are Present in Virtually All Acute Myeloid Leukaemia Blasts: A Promising Single Unique Phenotype for Minimal Residual Disease Detection. [PDF]
<b><i>Background/Aims:</i></b> In CD34-positive acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), the leukaemia-initiating event likely takes place in the CD34+CD38- cell compartment. CD123 has been shown to be a unique marker of leukaemic stem cells within the CD34+CD38- compartment.

Distinct Expression Patterns of CD123 and CD34 on Normal Bone Marrow B-Cell Precursors (“Hematogones”) and B Lymphoblastic Leukemia Blasts [PDF]
We compared the expression of CD123, the alpha chain of the interleukin-3 receptor, on normal B-cell precursors in bone marrow ("hematogones") from 75 specimens and on leukemic blasts in 45 newly diagnosed B-acute lymphoblastic leukemias (B-ALL) cases.

Background Acute myeloid leukemias arise from a rare population of leukemic cells, known as leukemic stem cells, which initiate the disease and contribute to frequent relapses. Although the phenotype of these cells remains unclear in most patients, these

Diseases with clonal hematopoiesis such as myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia have high rates of relapse. Only a small subset of acute myeloid leukemia patients are cured with chemotherapy alone. Relapse in these diseases occurs at least

Refined detection of CD34⁺CD38⁻CD45RA⁺ leukemic stem cells using a single-tube flow cytometry assay and its strong association with measurable residual disease in acute myeloid leukemia: a retrospective cohort study [PDF]
Background Leukemic stem cells (LSCs) are the cellular reservoir most strongly implicated in relapse of acute myeloid leukemia, yet their operational detection by multiparameter flow cytometry remains challenging because of immunophenotypic overlap with ...

CD34+CD38-CD123+ Leukemic Stem Cell Frequency Predicts Outcome in Older Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients Treated by Intensive Chemotherapy but Not Hypomethylating Agents. [PDF]
The prognostic impact of immunophenotypic CD34+CD38−CD123+ leukemic stem cell (iLSC) frequency at diagnosis has been demonstrated in younger patients treated by intensive chemotherapy, however, this is less clear in older patients. Furthermore, the impact of iLSC in patients treated by hypomethylating agents is unknown.

Background: Leukemic stem cells (LSCs) are thought to originate either from normal hematopoietic stem cells or from more differentiated progenitor cells.
