چکیده

background: the secondary genetic changes other than the promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor (pml-rara) fusion gene may contribute to the acute promyelocytic leukemogenesis. chromosomal alterations and mutation of flt3 (fms-like tyrosine kinase 3) tyrosine kinase receptor are the frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia. however, the prognostic significance of flt3 mutations in acute promyelocytic leukemia (apl) is not firmly established. methods: in this study, the chromosomal abnormalities were analyzed by bone marrow cytogenetic in 45 apl patients and flt3 internal tandem duplications (itd) screening by fragment length analysis and flt3 d835 mutation by melting curve analysis were screened in 23 apl samples. results: cytogenetic study showed 14.3% trisomy 8 and 17.1% chromosomal abnormalities other than t(1517). about 13% of the patients had flt3 itd, and 26% had d835 point mutation. flt3 itd mutation was associated with higher white blood cell count at presentation and poor prognosis. conclusion: the pml-rara translocation alone may not be sufficient to induce leukemia. therefore, we assume that flt3 mutations and the other genetic and chromosomal alterations may cooperate with pml-rara in the development of apl disease.

FMS-like Tyrosine Kinase-3 Mutation in a Child with Standard-risk ALL and Normal Karyotype

FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 is a receptor tyrosine kinase expressed by immature hematopoietic cells and is important for the normal development of stem cells and the immune system. Mutations of FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 have been detected in about 30% of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia and a small number of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 muta...

Molecular involvement and prognostic importance of fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 in acute myeloid leukemia.

AML (Acute myeloid leukemia) is a form of blood cancer where growth of myeloid cells occurs in the bone marrow. The prognosis is poor in general for many reasons. One is the presence of leukaemia-specific recognition markers such as FLT3 (fms-like tyrosine kinase 3). Another name of FLT3 is stem cell tyrosine kinase-1 (STK1), which is known to take part in proliferation, differentiation and apo...

FLT3 (FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3)

Size: 993 amino acids; 112804 Da; FLT3 is a class III receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) structurally related to the receptors for platelet derived growth factor (PDGF), colony stimulating factor 1 (CSF1), and KIT ligand (KL).; these RTK contain five immunoglobulin-like domains in the extracellular region and an intracelular tyrosine kinase domain splitted in two by a specific hydrophilic insertion...
