Genetic Abnormalities and Challenges in the Treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia

The 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...

phylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran

in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...

Successful Treatment of Bilateral Pulmonary Hydatic Cysts in a Child with Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Few data are available about hydatid cysts in patients with malignancy; however, these have rarely been described in association with leukemia. The purpose of this report was to present an unusual case of coexisting leukemia and pulmonary hydatid cysts.This study presented a 13-year-old boy with acute myeloid leukemia who was diagnosed with bilateral pulmonary hydatid cysts after the completion...
