Functional foods have emerged as a new approach to improve human health in term of nutraceutical to prevent people from illness rather than cure patients though medical treatment. In Asian society, particularly in Thailand, the utilizations of functional ingredients have been integrated in every parts of ordinary life. In this study, the tyrosine kinase activity of epidermal growth factor recep...

Several studies have shown that internal tandem duplication (ITD) of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) can result in the failure of leukemia treatment and contribute to a poor prognosis. However, the role of the overexpression of FLT3 in leukemia remains to be fully elucidated. By mining public database, the present study first identified that the expression of FLT3 in leukemia was markedly hig...

Nucleophosmin (NPM1) exon-12 gene mutations are the hallmark of a large acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) subgroup with normal karyotype, but their prognostic value in this AML subset has not yet been determined. We screened 401 AML patients with normal karyotype treated within the German AML Cooperative Group Protocol 99 (AMLCG99) study for NPM1 mutations. Results were related with partial tand...

Mutations of Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) are among the most frequently detected molecular abnormalities in AML patients. Internal tandem duplications (ITDs) are found in approximately 25% and point mutations within the second tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) in approximately 7% of AML patients. Patients carrying the FLT3-ITD but not the FLT3-TKD mutation have a significantly worse prognosis. ...

Our laboratory has shown that dopamine D(2)-like receptor activation causes stimulation of Na(+), K(+)-ATPase (NKA) activity in the proximal tubules of the rat kidney. The present study was designed to investigate the cellular signaling mechanisms mediating this response to D(2)-like receptor activation. We measured the stimulation of NKA activity by bromocriptine (D(2)-like receptor agonist) i...

In resource-constraint settings, genetic testing is rarely available for patients. We report the association of SETBP1, a major oncogene interest in myeloid malignancies, with juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) and GATA 1 mutation. The modulating role SETBP1 Rat sarcoma virus (RAS)-driven especially JMML, unknown. vivo vitro studies point to aggressive leukemogenesis.[1] mutation not consi...

ETV6-ABL1 gene fusion is a rare genetic rearrangement in variety of malignancies, including myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and myeloid (AML). Here, we report the case 16-year-old male diagnosed with MPN, 7 months post-completion treatment for Burkitt leukaemia. RNA sequencing analysis confirmed presence an transcript, intact, in-frame ABL tyrosine–kinase...
