CD11b Expression in Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia

A New Indole Derivative Decreased SALL4 Gene Expression in Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia Cell Line (NB4)

Background: Acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) is a clonal disorder due to bone marrow failure and uncontrolled proliferation of myeloid lineage. Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a subtype of AML. Heterocyclic compounds, such as indole, are considered as attractive candidates for cancer therapy, due to their abundance in nature and known biological activity. Sal-like protein (SALL4) is a zi...

Acute myeloid leukemia and acute promyelocytic leukemia.

The therapeutic approach to the patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) currently evolves toward new frontiers. This is particularly apparent from the entree of high-throughput diagnostic technologies and the identification of prognostic and therapeutic targets, the introduction of therapies in genetically defined subgroups of AML, as well as the influx of investigational approaches and novel...

Acute promyelocytic leukemia?

Briefly, the important clinical findings were as follows: A 10 year old white girl, acutely ill, febrile and showing disseminated skin purpura. There was no visceromegaly. The disease had apparently started 3 weeks before, with epistaxis and other purpuric manifestations. Laboratory findings showed severe anemia and thrombocytopenia with a leukocyte count of 3500 per cu. mm. The differential co...
