Acute leukemia occurring during chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
By PETER McPHEDiw r AND CLARK W. HEATH, JR. T HE CONCEPT OF “BLAST CRISIS” in chronic leukemia implies a single disease process advancing from chronic to acute phase. How often this happens in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or whether it happens at all, is uncertain. Unlike chronic granulocytic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia does not often end in acute leukemia. While it is possible that...
متن کاملThe role of microRNA in acute/chronic, myeloid/lymphocytic leukemia
MicroRNAs are small, non-coding sequences that regulate gene expression by inducing degradation or translational inhibition of target mRNAs. These molecules control many intracellular physiological and pathological processes.Abnormal expression of these moleculs has been described in different cancers including hematopoietic cancers. According to the type of cancer and the stage, miRNA’s expres...
متن کاملDicer Gene Expression as a Prognostic Factor in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia in Fars Province
Alterations in the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proposed to play a role in the pathogenesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Dicer is one of the main regulators of miRNA biogenesis, and deregulation of its expression has been indicated as a possible cause of miRNA alterations observed in various cancers. Our aim was to analyze the expre...
متن کاملCoexistence of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Analysis of the blood smear, bone marrow aspiration, and bone marrow biopsy revealed the predomination of small lymphocytes, but 22% of the cells were blasts negative with cytochemical staining (Figure 1). Flow cytometric analysis showed two distinct populations: 65% of cells were small to moderate in size and CD19+, CD45+, CD5+, and CD20+/-, while 30% of cells were large, CD34+, CD13+, HLA DR+...
متن کاملChronic lymphocytic leukemia, biology, new diagnosis and treatment: review article
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a malignancy of B CD5+cells and is the most common type of leukemia in adults. The disease is more common in men over 50 years in western countries. CLL is associated with defective apoptosis in B cells. CLL was traditionally regarded as a disease that occurs before naïve B cells meet the antigen in the lymph nodes. Laboratory diagnosis requires white blood...
