Mutations that permit residual CFTR function delay acquisition of multiple respiratory pathogens in CF patients [PDF]
Background Lung infection by various organisms is a characteristic feature of cystic fibrosis (CF). CFTR genotype effects acquisition of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa), however the effect on acquisition of other infectious organisms that frequently precede ...

Effector Functions of Natural Killer Cell Subsets in the Control of Hematological Malignancies. [PDF]
Treatment of hematological malignant disorders has been improved over the last years, but high relapse rate mainly attributable to the presence of minimal residual disease still persists.

In vivo imaging enables high resolution preclinical trials on patients' leukemia cells growing in mice. [PDF]
Xenograft mouse models represent helpful tools for preclinical studies on human tumors. For modeling the complexity of the human disease, primary tumor cells are by far superior to established cell lines.

Treatment of Adult Patients with Relapsed/Refractory B-Cell Philadelphia-Negative Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia [PDF]
The majority of adult patients affected by B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) will relapse after an initial response, while approximately 20% will display primary resistant disease. Patients suffering from relapsed/refractory B-ALL have a very

Minimal residual disease prior to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation in acute myeloid leukemia: a meta-analysis [PDF]
Minimal residual disease prior to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation has been associated with increased risk of relapse and death in patients with acute myeloid leukemia, but detection methodologies and results vary widely.

Dynamics of Minimal Residual Disease in Neuroblastoma Patients
Neuroblastoma is a common extracranial solid tumor of neural crest (NC) origin that accounts for up to 15% of all pediatric cancer deaths. The disease arises from a transient population of NC cells that undergo an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT ...

Metabolic memory underlying minimal residual disease in breast cancer
Tumor relapse from treatment‐resistant cells (minimal residual disease, MRD) underlies most breast cancer‐related deaths. Yet, the molecular characteristics defining their malignancy have largely remained elusive.
