Eradication of chronic myeloid leukemia stem cells: a novel mathematical model predicts no therapeutic benefit of adding G-CSF to imatinib [PDF]
Imatinib mesylate induces complete cytogenetic responses in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), yet many patients have detectable BCR-ABL transcripts in peripheral blood even after prolonged therapy.

Background Residual chronic myeloid leukemia disease following imatinib treatment has been attributed to the presence of quiescent leukemic stem cells intrinsically resistant to imatinib.

Purpose: To report a case of bilateral vision loss as the primary presenting symptom of chronic myeloid leukemia in a young adult. Observations: The 28-year-old male patient presented to clinic with visual acuity of 20/200 in both eyes after several ...

Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in 2007 [PDF]
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a hematopoietic stem cell cancer representing 15-20% of adult leukemias, is discussed. Epidemiology, staging biology, and monitoring techniques are reviewed.CML is a myeloproliferative disorder that affects all lineages of hematopoiesis.

A prisoner with chronic myeloid leukemia [PDF]
The health care received by prisoners in the area of tissue and organ transplantation is not well discussed or documented. We encountered a prisoner with newly diagnosed chronic myelogenous leukemia who was a candidate for allogeneic bone marrow transplantation and had two HLA-identical siblings who were willing to donate bone marrow.

Bcr/Abl Interferes with the Fanconi Anemia/BRCA Pathway: Implications in the Chromosomal Instability of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Cells [PDF]
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a malignant clonal disorder of the hematopoietic system caused by the expression of the BCR/ABL fusion oncogene. Although it is well known that CML cells are genetically unstable, the mechanisms accounting for this ...

Background Chronic lymphocytic leukemia and chronic myeloid leukemia are the most common types of adult leukemia. However, it is rare for the same patient to suffer from both.

Resistance to the BCR-ABL inhibitor imatinib mesylate poses a major problem for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia. Imatinib resistance often results from a secondary mutation in BCR-ABL that interferes with drug binding.

Unravelling the mechanisms of resistance to imatinib mesylate in chronic myeloid leukemia: a proteomic approach [PDF]
Imatinib mesylate is a potent inhibitor of the Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase, an oncoprotein that plays a key role in the development of chronic myeloid leukemia. Consequently, imatinib is used as front-line therapy for this disease.
