CNS Genes Implicated in Relapse
Drug abuse is a condition that impacts not only the individual drug user, but society as a whole. Although prevention of initial drug use is the most effective way to prevent addiction, avoiding relapse is a crucial component of drug addiction recovery. Recent studies suggest that there is a set of genes whose expression is robustly and stably altered following drug use and ensuing abstinence. ...
متن کاملCNS relapse in acute promyeloctyic leukemia.
A 42-year-old female was diagnosed with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with a translocation of chromosomes 15 and 17 involving the PML and RARA genes. On presentation she met criteria for low-risk disease on the basis of platelet count (50 10/L) and WBC count (0.8 10/L). The patient achieved a complete molecular remission after induction chemotherapy with all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) and ...
متن کاملImmunoglobulin genes implicated in glioma risk
Both genetic and environmental factors are thought to be causal in gliomagenesis. Several genes have been implicated in glioma development, but the putative role of a major immunity-related gene complex member, immunoglobulin heavy chain γ (IGHG) has not been evaluated. Prior observations that IGHG-encoded γ marker (GM) allotypes exhibit differential sensitivity to an immunoevasion strategy of ...
متن کاملLiver transplantation in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma: factors implicated in tumor relapse.
INTRODUCTION Liver segmental resection and liver transplantation are both treatments intended for healing liver cancer. An adequate selection of patients eligible for transplantation is crucial, since organs available for transplants are usually scarce. For this reason, awareness of the prognostic factors of relapse is of great importance. We present a comprehensive review of our series in orde...
متن کاملA set of genes previously implicated in the hypoxia
Background: Wounds are increasingly important in our aging societies. Pathologies such as diabetes predispose patients to chronic wounds that can cause pain, infection, and amputation. The vacuum assisted closure device shows remarkable outcomes in wound healing. Its mechanism of action is unclear despite several hypotheses advanced. We previously hypothesized that micromechanical forces can he...
