Background: Treatment of cancer patients using conventional chemotherapy causes serious side effects and, at best, merely extends the patient’s lifespan by a few years. The potential of alternative therapies may therefore be of great benefit in cancer control. The effect of Trigonella Foenum Graecum seed extract has been previously reported on some neoplastic cells. Here, its effect is evaluate...

KIT mutations are the most common secondary mutations in inv(16) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients and are associated with poor prognosis. It is therefore important to verify that KIT mutations cooperate with CBFB-MYH11, the fusion gene generated by inv(16), for leukemogenesis. Here, we transduced wild-type and conditional Cbfb-MYH11 knockin (KI) mouse bone marrow (BM) cells with KIT D816V/...

Ингибиторы тирозинкиназ: профилактика рецидива после аллогенной трансплантации гемопоэтических стволовых клеток у взрослых пациентов с Ph-позитивным острым лимфобластным лейкозомTyrosine kinase inhibitors: relapse prophylaxis after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in adults with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Hairy-cell leukemia (HCL) is a CD20+ indolent B-cell cancer in which BRAF V600E kinase–activating mutation plays pathogenetic role. In clinical trials involving patients with refractory or relapsed HCL, the targeting of oral inhibitor vemurafenib led to response 91% patients; 35% had complete response. However, median relapse-free survival was only 9 months after treatment stopped.

background: acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all) is the most common subtype of childhood cancer. chromosomal ab­normality, specially the replacement of chromosomal material is one of the main reasons in generating leukemia, wherein the kind of translocation play a key role in managing the remedy. the goal of the present study was to develop a reliable, rapid, and cost effective method to detect t...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Leukemia relapse occurring in donor cells after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has been reported in rare cases. Cytogenetic analysis and molecular probing of variable number of tandem repeats (VNTRs) have been used to confirm this unusual event in the few cases so far reported in the literature. The aim of this study was to demonstrate that extensiv...
