Genomic approaches to hematologic malignancies.
In the past several years, experiments using DNA microarrays have contributed to an increasingly refined molecular taxonomy of hematologic malignancies. In addition to the characterization of molecular profiles for known diagnostic classifications, studies have defined patterns of gene expression corresponding to specific molecular abnormalities, oncologic phenotypes, and clinical outcomes. Fur...
متن کاملHigh-throughput detection of actionable genomic alterations in clinical tumor samples by targeted, massively parallel sequencing.
UNLABELLED Knowledge of "actionable" somatic genomic alterations present in each tumor (e.g., point mutations, small insertions/deletions, and copy-number alterations that direct therapeutic options) should facilitate individualized approaches to cancer treatment. However, clinical implementation of systematic genomic profiling has rarely been achieved beyond limited numbers of oncogene point m...
متن کاملFungal Infections in Pediatric Patients with Hematologic Malignancies
As the data on the epidemiology and outcome of fungal infections in children with hematologic cancer are limited especially in Iran, this study was aimed to delineate the epidemiologic features and outcome of fungal infections in this population. The medical records of all children with hematologic malignancies diagnosed with a fungal infection from 2005 to 2010 at a tertiary pediatric hospita...
متن کاملHematologic Malignancies
Touch MEdical MEdia 43 Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable plasma cell disease that comprises 1 % of all cancers and 10 % of hematologic malignancies. It primarily affects older individuals—the median age at the moment of diagnosis is 70 years—and two-thirds of multiple myeloma patients are over 65 years of age when they are first diagnosed. The outcome of MM patients has significantly improv...
متن کاملCD44 and hematologic malignancies.
The expression of CD44 was upregulated in some hematological malignancies and is associated with metastasis and prognosis. The ligation of CD44 with specific monoclonal antibodies can trigger terminal differentiation of leukemic blasts in some subtypes, so it is probable to develop an anti-CD44 based differentiation therapy in leukemia. The effects of CD44 and its monoclonal antibodies are disc...
