[ 1 ] - Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Associated with Mutation in JAK2V617F and Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors as Therapeutic Strategy

MPNs including a heterogeneous group of clonal or oligoclonal hamtopathies characterized by proliferation and accumulation of mature myeloid cells. JAK2 tyrosine kinase mutation is the most common molecular lesion identified in 90% of cases. JAK2 is involved in EPO signaling pathway, and mutations in it lead to EPO-independent spontaneous phosphorylation. Most tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) a...

[ 2 ] - Myeloproliferative disorders and its associated mutations

Myeloproliferative Neoplasm (MPN) are a clonal disorder in hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). MPN is categorized to 8 subclasses, including chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocytopenia (ET), primary myelofibrosis (PMF), systematic mastositosis (SM), chronic eosinophilic leukemia (CEL), chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL), and unclassified myelofibrosis disorde...

[ 3 ] - Biology of TH17 Lymphocytes, their Cytokines and Role in Disease

T lymphocytes that are involved in cellular mediated immunity include two types known as TCD8+ (Cytotoxic T lymphocytes) and TCD4+ (helper T lymphocytes). TCD4+ has four main subtypes, including TH1, TH2, TH17, and Treg Lymphocytes.TH17 lymphocytes play a role in defense against microbes that TH1 and TH2 lymphocytes have not the ability to respond to them. The most important cytokines, which ar...

[ 4 ] - Clinical Application and Functional Mechanisms of Intravenous Immunoglobulin: an Overview

Previous, Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) has been used for treatment of patients with immunodeficiency. However, recent studies have shown that IVIG is a suitable approach for treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Although the exact mechanism of IVIG action is not well known, recent findings have demonstrated that IVIG impacts on expression and function of FC receptors of immuno...
