T-Cell Acute Lym-phoblastic Leukemia In article number 2205854, Jingjing Ye, Min Ji, Chunyan and co-workers observed aberrant adipogenesis in the bone marrow of chemotherapy-treated T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) patients, differentiated-adipocytes attract support residual T-ALL cells. Last, an SREBF1 inhibitor demonstrates superior improvement on therapeutic effect dexamethason by...

T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia is an aggressive hematologic malignancy which is usuallyassociated with unfavorable prognosis particularly in patients with refractory/relapsed disease.Therefore, development of novel therapeutic strategies is highly required for improving theoutcome of these patients. Although there are several studies evaluating the efficacy of proteasome<...

background: the aim of this study was to detect the prognostic significance of survivin level and the expression of total p53 in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all) and its correlation to patients' outcome. methods: sixty two children newly diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia were treated with chemotherapy and followed up for 2 years or until death. twenty apparently healthy volunteers w...

INTRODUCTION Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is disease of lymphoid precursors and is the most common cancer. Diagnosis of ALL is made by evaluating morphology and flowcytometric Immunophenotyping (FCI)and is an important adjunct in diagnosis and determining treatment in ALL, with availability of extensive monoclonal antibodies in the recent years there is tremendous progress in the field of...

introduction: the majority of leukemia patients are acute leukemia patients, so that about 70.8% lymphoblastic leukemia were acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all) patients and 66.4 % of myeloid leukemia patients were acute myeloid leukemia (aml) in tehran metropolitan. during the last two decades, intensification of therapy by the use of high-dose cytarabine allogeneic stem cell transplantation in...

background: acute lymphoblastic leukemia is a lymphoid malignancy, resulting from autonomous proliferation of monoclonal abnormal stem cell. the aim of this study was to evaluate the response rate and prognostic factor of adult patients suffering from acute lymphoblastic leukemia, who were treated with chemotherapy in south east of iran and demographic methods were used for this study.   method...

Abnormalities of the thyroid gland are among the most frequent endocrine complications observed in childhood cancer survivors. We report an 11 years old girl who developed central hypothyroidism and ACTH deficiency during the chemotherapy for CNS relapse of acute lymphoblastic leukemia before receiving radiotherapy. Keywords: Thyroid gland, hypothyroidism, chemotherapy, acute lymphoblastic leu...

Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a monophasic demyelinating disease most often triggered by infection or immunization, though associations with malignancy and stem cell transplant have been described. We described the case of a four-year-old boy with new-onset neurological symptoms associated with ADEM, acute leukemia, and equivocal evidence of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. He ...

Background: Acute leukemia is one of the most common types of childhood malignancies and one fourth of malignancies in this age group is acute leukemia. Acute leukemia may be myeloid or lymphoid. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is characterized with abnormal proliferation of lymphoid cells and symptoms related to this are acute and if disease is not treated appropriately, it progresses rapidly and...
