Frequency of BCR-ABL Fusion Transcripts in Iranian Azeri Turkish patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

Background: The Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) characterized by t (9; 22) (q34; q11.2) is a reciprocal translocation giving rise to a chimeric BCR-ABL fusion gene. Incidence of Ph chromosome is over 98% in Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) and around 20% in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The finding of this fusion gene is essential for diagnosis of CML by detection of various fusi...

ANTIBODY RECOGNITION OF THE TUMORSPECIFIC bcr-abl JOINING REGION IN CHRONIC MYELOID LEUKEMIA By JANNEKE VAN DENDEREN,* ANDRÉ HERMANS,* TOON MEEUWSEN,* CHRISTINE TROELSTRA,* NETTY ZEGERS,1 WIM BOERSMA,1

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)' is a pluripotent stem cell disorder characterized by the presence of the Philadelphia (Ph') chromosome in the leukemic cells of 96% of all CML patients (1) . The Ph' chromosome is formed by a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 22 and 9 (2, 3) . In this translocation, the c-abloncogene has moved from chromosome 9 into the breakpoint cluster region (bcr),...

Detection of abl/bcr Fusion Gene in Patients Affected by Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia by Dual-Colour Interphase Fluorescence in situ Hybridisation

Conventional cytogenetic is the standard technique for detection of Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Evaluation of abelson murine leukemia/breakpoint cluster region (abl/bcr) fusion using dual-colour fluorescence in situ hybridization (D-FISH) is an alternative approach allowing rapid and reliable detection of the disease. We employed the technique of interphase D...

Bcr-abl Silencing by Specific Small-Interference RNA Expression Vector as a Potential Treatment for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

Background: RNA interference (RNAi) is the mechanism of gene silencing-mediated messenger RNA degradation by small interference RNA (siRNA), which becomes a powerful tool for in vivo research, especially in the areas of cancer. In this research, the potential use of an expression vector as a specific siRNA producing tool for silencing of Bcr-abl in K562 cell line has been investigated. Methods:...

Antibody recognition of the tumor-specific bcr-abl joining region in chronic myeloid leukemia

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is characterized by the presence of a 210-kD protein (P210bcr-abl) in the cytoplasm of leukemic cells, generated by the reciprocal translocation between chromosome 9 and chromosome 22. Due to this translocation, the abl oncogene is coupled to the bcr gene, forming a new determinant in this protein encoded by the bcr-abl joining region. In the joining region itself...

Bcr-abl mRNA expression in patients with chronic myeloproliferative disorders--absence of bcr-abl fused clone except chronic myelocytic leukemia.

Bcr-abl mRNA expression was studied in patients with chronic myeloproliferative disorders (CMPD) by the reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method. A bcr-abl transcript was not found in any patient with polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia or primary myelofibrosis, suggesting that the bcr-abl rearranged clone is not present in CMPD other than chronic myelogenous leu...
