BCR-ABL rearrangements in children with Philadelphia chromosome- positive chronic myelogenous leukemia [PDF]
Abstract Leukemia cells from adults with Philadelphia (Ph1)-chromosome positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) have a characteristic molecular rearrangement between the BCR and ABL genes whereby major breakpoint cluster region (Mbcr) exons 2 or 3 are joined to ABL exon II.

New type of Bcr/Abl junction in Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia [PDF]
A new and rare type of Bcr/Abl junction between exon C3 of the 3′ portion of the Bcr gene and Abl exon 2 has been identified in the leukemic cells of two Ph1-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia patients in chronic phase. This is the fourth type of Bcr/Abl junction so far identified in Ph1-positive hematologic malignancies and is a consequence of an ...

Long circulating lectin conjugated paclitaxel loaded magnetic nanoparticles: a new theranostic avenue for leukemia therapy. [PDF]
Amongst all leukemias, Bcr-Abl positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) confers resistance to native drug due to multi drug resistance and also resistance to p53 and fas ligand pathways.

Combination of bortezomib and mitotic inhibitors down-modulate Bcr-Abl and efficiently eliminates tyrosine-kinase inhibitor sensitive and resistant Bcr-Abl-positive leukemic cells. [PDF]
Emergence of resistance to Tyrosine-Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs), such as imatinib, dasatinib and nilotinib, in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) demands new therapeutic strategies.

Proliferating status of peripheral blood progenitor cells from patients with BCR/ABL-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia [PDF]
To investigate the mechanisms behind the leukemic expansion of BCR/ABL-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), we examined the cell cycle status of hematopoietic progenitor cells from peripheral blood (PB) and bone marrow (BM) of 37 patients with newly diagnosed BCR/ABL-positive CML.

Isolated monocytosis was the flag preceding abnormalities in other parameters of complete blood counts in chronic myeloid leukemia with e1a2 (minor, P190) chimeric transcripts [PDF]
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm with the molecular hallmark of BCR-ABL1 chimeric transcripts from t(9;22)(q24;q22). In more than 95% of CML, the fusion occurs in the major breakpoint cluster region (M-bcr) of BCR, most ...

NK cells are dysfunctional in human chronic myelogenous leukemia before and on imatinib treatment and in BCR–ABL-positive mice [PDF]
Although BCR-ABL+ stem cells in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) resist elimination by targeted pharmacotherapy in most patients, immunological graft-versus-leukemia effects can cure the disease. Besides cytotoxic T cells, natural killer (NK) cells may have a role in immune control of CML.

Leukemic infiltration of the ovary as an initial presentation of chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase [PDF]
Introduction. Extramedullary sites of leukemic proliferation, harboring an adverse outcome, are rare and usually found in the blastic phase of chronic myeloid leukemia.

The Relationship Between the Type of bcr-abl Hybrid Messenger RNA and Thrombopoiesis in Philadelphia-Positive Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia [PDF]
Formation of the Philadelphia (Ph1) chromosome, which contains the hybrid bcr-abl gene, is thought to be the initial event in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). The positions of the breakpoint within the breakpoint cluster region (bcr) on the bcr-abl gene in 22 chronic-phase cases of Ph1-positive CML were determined using conventional Southern blots ...

Introduction: Treatment-free remission (TFR) is a new goal of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) therapy. TFR is feasible when the patient has achieved a deep and stable molecular response and met the criteria required to ensure its success.
