BAALC (brain and acute leukemia, cytoplasmic)
نویسندگان
چکیده
Transcripts involving exons 1, 6, and 8, or 1, and 8 are found in neurectoderm tissues; BAALC is also expressed in normal early progenitor cells (CD34+) of the hematopoietic tissues: both uncommitted and lineage-committed progenitor cells (lymphoid Tand B-cell progenitors, myeloid and erytroid progenitors); down regulation occurs with cell differentiation; various transcripts are found in leukemic blasts (see above and below); also found expressed in the mesoderm and the muscle in the Mouse.

Prognostic Value of BAALC Expression in Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A Systematic Review
Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a malignant disorder involving blood cells, characterized by obstructed or distorted differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells. In cytogenetically normal AML (CN AML), molecular abnormalities in NPM, FLT3, CEBPA, and BAALC genes are observed. Initially, high BAALC (Brain and Acute Leukemia Cytoplasmic gene) expression was introduced in a study on AM...
متن کاملAnalysis of BAALC gene Expression as prognosis factor in Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia in Iran
Background:Brain and Acute Leukemia Cytoplasmic (BAALC) is a gene which its expression is confined to progenitor cells; therefore, no expression has been illustrated in mature cells of bone marrow or white blood cells (WBC). In addition, high BAALC expression is associated with poor prognosis in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) individuals and is considered as an important risk factor in Cyto...
متن کاملPrognostic Value of Brain and Acute Leukemia Cytoplasmic Gene Expression in Egyptian Children with Acute Myeloid Leukemia
BACKGROUND Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) accounts for 25%-35% of acute leukemia in children. BAALC gene (Brain and Acute Leukemia Cytoplasmic gene) is a recently identified gene on chromosome 8q22.3 that has prognostic significance in AML. The aim of this work was to study the impact of BAALC gene expression on prognosis of AML in Egyptian children. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study was conducte...
متن کاملBAALC expression: a suitable marker for prognostic risk stratification and detection of residual disease in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia
High brain and acute leukemia, cytoplasmic (BAALC) expression defines an important risk factor in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML). The prognostic value of BAALC expression in relation to other molecular prognosticators was analyzed in 326 CN-AML patients (<65 years). At diagnosis, high BAALC expression was associated with prognostically adverse mutations: FLT3 internal ta...
متن کاملBAALC and ERG Expression in Egyptian Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, Relation to Survival and Response to Treatment
AIM Aim was to detect Brain and Acute Leukemia, Cytoplasmic (BAALC) and ETS-related gene (ERG) expression in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) as well as to study their biologic and prognostic impact on the disease outcome and survival. PATIENTS AND METHODS The current study was carried out on 44 patients with denovo acute myeloid leukemia, as well as 44 age and sex matched controls....
متن کاملEvaluation of BAALC gene expression in normal cytogenetic acute myeloid leukemia patients in north-east of Iran
Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is known as one of the most common leukemia among adults. Environmental and different genetic factors affect disease process, prognosis and treatment. Among different genetic factors NPM1, FLT3, MLL and BAALC genes are the most effective on patient's survival rate. The aim of this study was to assess amount of BAALC gene expression in AML patients, and i...
