NUP214 fusion genes in acute leukemia (Review)
Nucleoporin 214 (NUP214), previously termed CAN, is required for cell cycle and nucleocytoplasmic transport. The genetic features and clinical implications of five NUP214-associated fusion genes are described in this review. SET-NUP214 was most frequently observed in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), concomitant with the elevated expression of HOXA cluster genes. Furthermore, the fus...
متن کاملGeographic Heterogeneity of the AML1-ETO Fusion Gene in Iranian Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Background: The human AML1 gene, located on chromosome 21, can be fused to the AML1- eight-twenty-one (ETO) oncoprotein on chromosome eight, resulting in a t(8;21)(q22;q22) translocation. Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) associated with this translocation is considered a distinct AML with a favorable prognosis. Due to the various incidences of the translocation, which is associated with geographic ...
متن کاملOverexpression of translocation-associated fusion genes of FGFRI, MYC, NPMI, and DEK, but absence of the translocations in acute myeloid leukemia. A microarray analysis.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Translocation-associated gene fusions are well recognized in acute myeloid leukemia. Other molecular genetic changes are less well known. The novel cDNA technology has opened the avenue to large-scale gene expression analysis. Our aim was to perform cDNA microarray analysis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). DESIGN AND METHODS We performed cDNA microarray analysis usin...
متن کاملشناسایی الحاق PLZF-RARa در بیماران با ریخت شناسی لوسمی پرومیلوسیتی حاد
Background and Aim: Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is associated with the t(1517) ,fusing promyelocytic leukemia (PML) and retinoic acid receptor-a (RARa) genes. This disease is uniquely sensitive to treatment with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and highly responsive to conventional chemotherapy. The t(1117)(q23q21) abnormality associated with a PLZF-RARa rearrangement is the commonest of t...
متن کاملThe involvement of cellular proliferation status in the expression of the human proto-oncogene DEK.
The role of the DEK protein, involved in the leukemia-associated fusion protein DEK-CAN, is not yet known. In this study, we show a higher expression of DEK mRNA in immature cells than in mature cells. Furthermore, a correlation between DEK expression and cell proliferation was demonstrated, suggesting that DEK plays a role in the proliferation of hematopoietic cells and raising the question of...
