Azacitidine as salvage therapy for acute myeloid leukemia in a severely ill patient
Hematology Reports, 2014 Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematological malignancy of myeloid progenitor cells that disrupt normal hematopoiesis. Current chemotherapy regimens result in complete remission in many cases; however, there exists no standard efficacious therapy for ...

Eradication of chronic myeloid leukemia stem cells: a novel mathematical model predicts no therapeutic benefit of adding G-CSF to imatinib [PDF]
, 2009 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.

Reciprocal t(9;22) ABL/BCR fusion proteins: leukemogenic potential and effects on B cell commitment [PDF]
, 2009 Background: t(9;22) is a balanced translocation, and the chromosome 22 breakpoints (Philadelphia chromosome – Ph+) determine formation of different fusion genes that are associated with either Ph+ acute lymphatic leukemia (Ph+ ALL) or chronic myeloid ...

NUP214 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
CellsNucleoporin 214 (NUP214) is a component of the nucleopore molecular complex, but in addition to this role in nucleocytoplasmic transport it is also involved in the regulation of gene transcription/translation, intracellular signaling, cell cycle progression and programmed cell death.

Anterior myeloid sarcoma revealing acute myeloid leukemia: Case report
Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2016 Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a tumor mass of myeloblasts or immature myeloid cells occurring in an extramedullary site or in the bone and generally precedes or reveals myeloid leukemia. It rarely occurs in the mediastinum.
