Chronic Myeloid Leukemia [PDF]
AbstractChronic myeloid leukemia (CML) was the first human malignancy to be associated with a specific genetic lesion, the Philadelphia chromosome, harboring the BCR-ABL oncogene. Since then, it has become a paradigm for the discovery of molecular mechanisms and targeted therapeutic approaches in the field of hematologic neoplasias. The past 5 years or

Mutations in GATA2 cause primary lymphedema associated with a predisposition to acute myeloid leukemia (Emberger syndrome). [PDF]
We report an allelic series of eight mutations in GATA2 underlying Emberger syndrome, an autosomal dominant primary lymphedema associated with a predisposition to acute myeloid leukemia.

CREB is a critical regulator of normal hematopoiesis and leukemogenesis [PDF]
The cAMP-responsive element binding protein (CREB) is a 43-kDa nuclear transcription factor that regulates cell growth, memory, and glucose homeostasis. We showed previously that CREB is amplified in myeloid leukemia blasts and expressed at higher levels

Dual mechanisms by which MiR-125b represses IRF4 to induce myeloid and B cell leukemias [PDF]
The oncomir microRNA-125b (miR-125b) is up-regulated in a variety of human neoplastic blood disorders and constitutive up-regulation of miR-125b in mice can promote myeloid and B cell leukemia.

The chronic myeloid leukemia stem cell: stemming the tide of persistence [PDF]
Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is caused by the acquisition of the tyrosine kinase BCR-ABL1 in a haemopoietic stem cell (HSC), transforming it into a leukaemic stem cell (LSC) that self-renews, proliferates and differentiates to give rise to a ...

A dual origin for Bcr-Abl gene translocation/fusion as dynamics of synergism of the hematopoietic stem cell and hemangioblast in chronic myeloid leukemia [PDF]
Contextual BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase over-activity determines in formulated fashion the emergence of proliferation and anti-apoptosis that arise largely as derived phenomena of otherwise homeostatic mechanisms of the c-ABL gene within hematopoietic ...

Epigenetic dysregulation in chronic myeloid leukaemia: A myriad of mechanisms and therapeutic options [PDF]
The onset of global epigenetic changes in chromatin that drive tumor proliferation and heterogeneity is a hallmark of many forms cancer. Identifying the epigenetic mechanisms that govern these changes and developing therapeutic approaches to modulate ...

AbstractAdvances in our understanding of the pathophysiology of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have not yet led to major improvements in disease-free and overall survival of adults with this disease. Only about one-third of those between ages 18–60 who are diagnosed with AML can be cured; disease-free survival is rare and current therapy devastating in ...
