FMS-like Tyrosine Kinase-3 Mutation in a Child with Standard-risk ALL and Normal Karyotype
FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 is a receptor tyrosine kinase expressed by immature hematopoietic cells and is important for the normal development of stem cells and the immune system. Mutations of FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 have been detected in about 30% of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia and a small number of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 muta...
متن کاملReceptor tyrosine kinase signaling in vascular development.
The formation and maintenance of the vascular circulatory system is of utmost importance during embryonic and postnatal life. The first organ system to develop is the cardiovascular network of endothelial cells that carry blood cells and metabolites throughout the embryo (1 , 2). Indeed, a functional vascular system is crucial for the rapid growth of postimplantation embryos. The vascular syste...
متن کاملSprouty is a general inhibitor of receptor tyrosine kinase signaling.
Sprouty was originally identified as an inhibitor of Drosophila FGF receptor signaling during tracheal development. By following the capacity of ectopic Sprouty to abolish the pattern of activated MAP kinase in embryos, we show that Sprouty can inhibit other receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling pathways, namely the Heartless FGF receptor and the EGF receptor. Similarly, in wing imaginal dis...
متن کاملCytogenetic and FMS-Like Tyrosine Kinase 3 Mutation Analyses in Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia Patients
Background: The secondary genetic changes other than the promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor (PML-RARA) fusion gene may contribute to the acute promyelocytic leukemogenesis. Chromosomal alterations and mutation of FLT3 (FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3) tyrosine kinase receptor are the frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia. However, the prognostic significance of FLT3 mutat...
متن کاملFlotillins in Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Signaling and Cancer
Flotillins are highly conserved proteins that localize into specific cholesterol rich microdomains in cellular membranes. They have been shown to be associated with, for example, various signaling pathways, cell adhesion, membrane trafficking and axonal growth. Recent findings have revealed that flotillins are frequently overexpressed in various types of human cancers. We here review the sugges...
