Acute myeloid leukemia is the most common acute leukemia in adults, with accumulation of abundant blasts and impairment of hematogenic function. Despite great advances in diagnosis and therapy, the overall survival of patients with acute myeloid leukemia

Myeloid sarcoma as a manifestation of acute myeloid leukemia
We report a case of a 43-year-old man who presented with dyspnea because of large bilateral pleural effusions and imaging findings of a large periaortic mass with compression of the esophagus and left atrium. Subsequent soft tissue biopsy was consistent with myeloid sarcoma, and bone marrow biopsy was consistent with 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.

This is an interim report of two National studies of human recombinant interferon-alpha 2a (ROFERON-A) in Ph+ chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The first study (1986-1988) enrolled 322 patients who were randomized to treatment by IFN or by hydroxyurea ...

Targeting the MLL complex in acute leukemia [PDF]
Chromosomal rearrangements leading mostly to fusion oncoproteins of the Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene occur in about 10% of all patients with acute leukemia and are often associated with poor clinical outcome, emphasizing the need for new treatment ...

Anterior myeloid sarcoma revealing acute myeloid leukemia: Case report
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.

Identification of cooperating genetic events in acute leukemia [PDF]
The genetic alterations associated with acute leukemia can be divided into two functional groups. The class I mutations enhance cellular proliferation and survival by constitutive activation of mainly protein tyrosine kinases signaling pathways.

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.

Gene rearrangements in bone marrow cells of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia [PDF]
At diagnosis, clonal gene rearrangement probes {[}retinoic acid receptor (RAR)-alpha, major breakpoint cluster region (M-bcr), immunoglobulin (Ig)-JH, T cell receptor (TcR)-beta, myeloid lymphoid leukemia (MLL) or cytokine genes (GM-CSF, G-CSF, IL-3 ...

Chronic myeloid leukemia stem cells are not dependent on Bcr-Abl kinase activity for their survival [PDF]
Recent evidence suggests CML stem cells are insensitive to kinase inhibitors and responsible for minimal residual disease in treated patients. We investigated whether CML stem cells, in a transgenic mouse model of CML-like disease or derived from ...
