RAPID COMMUNICATION p16 Gene Homozygous Deletions in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
The p16 protein is a cyclin inhibitor encoded by a gene located in 9p21, which may have antioncogenic properties, and is inactivated by homozygous p16 gene deletion or, less often, point mutation in several types of solid tumors often associated t o cytogenetic evidence of 9p21 deletion. We looked for homozygous deletion and point mutation of the p16 gene in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), ...
متن کاملDiversity of T-cell receptor Gene Rearrangements in South Indian Patients with Common Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Background: Precursor B-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (precursor B-ALL) oc-curs due to the uncontrolled proliferation of B-lymphoid precursors arrested at a par-ticular stage of B-cell development. Precursor-B-ALL is classified mainly into pro-B-ALL, common-ALL and pre-B-ALL. The Common Acute Lymphoblastic Antigen CD10 is the marker for common-ALL. Objective: This study was aimed to examine the ...
متن کامل12p abnormalities and the TEL gene (ETV6) in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Although abnormalities involving the short arm of chromosome 12 (12p) are one of the most frequently observed rearrangements in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), little is known about the frequency of different structural abnormalities and their relationship to the status of the ETV6 (also named TEL) gene in this region. Of 815 children with newly diagnosed ALL, 94 (11.5%) had a tot...
متن کاملExpression of ROR1 Gene in Patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) results from genetic alterations in a single lymphoid progenitor cell. Expression of ROR1 is reported to be increased in ALL and mantle cell lymphoma. In this study the expression of ROR1 was assessed in newly diagnosed patients with ALL. Methods: This study was carried out on 40 patients with newly diagnosed ALL and healthy individuals as contro...
متن کاملUBE2Q1, as Down Regulated Gene in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Ubiquitin - proteasome system (UPS), the major protein degradation pathway in the cells, typically degrades short - lived and damaged proteins and regulates growth and stress responses. This pathway is altered in various cancers, including Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). ALL begins with a change in bone marrow cells and is the most common type of leukemia in children under 15 years. UBE2Q1...
