Leukemia autopsies in Japan [PDF]
For the purpose to know whether the annual increase of leukemia incidence in Japan is due to some leukemogenic factors or due to the increased detection rate, the authors made some statistical survey of autopsy cases in which the diagnosis is reliable ...

Impact of IDH Mutations on DNA Methylation of Acute Myeloid Leukemia Related Genes: A Review Article
Background: Acute myeloid leukemia is one of the deadliest hematologic malignancies that is marked by genetic alterations, abnormal cellular functions, and proliferation. Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase genes, particularly isocitrate dehydrogenase

Prediction of molecular subtypes in acute myeloid leukemia based on gene expression profiling
We examined the gene expression profiles of two independent cohorts of patients with acute myeloid leukemia [n=247 and n=214 (younger than or equal to 60 years)] to study the applicability of gene expression profiling as a single assay in prediction of ...

Increased PRAME-specific CTL killing of acute myeloid leukemia cells by either a novel histone deacetylase inhibitor chidamide alone or combined treatment with decitabine. [PDF]
As one of the best known cancer testis antigens, PRAME is overexpressed exclusively in germ line tissues such as the testis as well as in a variety of solid and hematological malignant cells including acute myeloid leukemia.

Molecular monitoring of minimal residual disease in two patients with MLL-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia and haploidentical transplantation after relapse [PDF]
This report describes the clinical courses of two acute myeloid leukemia patients. Both had MLL translocations, the first a t(10;11)(p11.2;q23) with MLL-AF10 and the second a t(11;19)(q23;p13.1) with MLL-ELL fusion.

Exposure to benzene at work and the risk of leukemia: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Background A substantial number of epidemiologic studies have provided estimates of the relation between exposure to benzene at work and the risk of leukemia, but the results have been heterogeneous.
