چکیده

The permissive or inductive environment provided by bone marrow stromal cells in long-term cultures allows the persistent proliferation and differentiation of haemopoietic stem and progenitor cells [1]. Cells harvested from cultures of murine bone marrow can reconstitute the haemopoietic system when transplanted into lethally irradiated mice [2]. If bone marrow heavily infiltrated with leukaemic cells is cultured using similar conditions, the leukaemic blast cells become undetectable within 1 week, and the cultured marrow can then be used to rescue

Alterations of adiponectin gene expression in bone marrow of acute myeloid leukemia

Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by the proliferation of myeloid precursors and abnormal differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells, which results in the accumulation of immature cells in the bone marrow (BM). The accumulation of these cells in the bone marrow causes molecular and cellular changes in the microenvironment of the bone marrow. The adiponectin hormone orig...

Alpha-Synuclein Expression in Acute Erythroleukaemia, Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia, and Normal Counterparts in Bone Marrow

Background:Alpha-synuclein is a member of synuclein family of proteins with unidentified function localized in the cytoplasm, mitochondria of neurons, and presynaptic nerve endings. Although it is found in the Lewy bodies in synucleinopathies and in Alzheimer’s disease, the protein could also be considered as a novel marker in diagnosis of dis...

Expression Profile of Wnt Molecules in Leukemic Cells from Iranian Patients with Acute Myeloblastic Leukemia

Background: Wnt molecules play a key role in growth, proliferation and development of some embryonic and adult organs as well as hematopoietic stem cells. Wnt signaling pathways are aberrantly activated in many tumor types, including solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. Objective: To investigate the expression profile of a large number of Wnt genes in leukemic cells from Iranian patients ...
