Angiogenic factor VEGF and its relationship with biological prognostic markers in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
B-CLL is a heterogeneous disease, distinguishing between good and poor prognosis represents a challenge to hematologists. The present study aimed to assess the relative merit of VEGF as a prognostic factor in CLL and to correlate it with other prognostic factors as CD38 & sP53 in the different stages of the disease. The median values of CD38%, sP53 and VEGF were significantly higher in both hig...
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 کاملPrognostic factors in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
The Rai staging system is widely used and is easy to apply in clinical practice. The system introduced by Binet et al offers an advantage that it consists only of three stages and, therefore, is more practical for initiation of controlled therapeutic trials than the five-stage Rai system. However, when we take into consideration the survival curves, it is important to note that the Rai system h...
متن کاملAdverse prognostic features in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) can have variable courses, from indolent disease to rapid progression with limited response to treatment. The Rai and Binet staging systems were the first to classify patients into prognostic categories. Newer prognostic markers that correlate with shorter time to progression and time to treatment include elevated serum beta2M, TK, ZAP-70, and CD...
متن کاملChronic lymphocytic leukemia and prognostic factors.
BACKGROUND The clinical course of individual chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is highly variable and clinical staging systems do not help us to predict if and at what rate there will be disease progression in an individual patient diagnosed with early stage disease. Recently, several important observations related to other prognostic factors including lymphocyte doubling time (LDT), β2-microg...
