TP53 and Decitabine in Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndromes.
BACKGROUND The molecular determinants of clinical responses to decitabine therapy in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are unclear. METHODS We enrolled 84 adult patients with AML or MDS in a single-institution trial of decitabine to identify somatic mutations and their relationships to clinical responses. Decitabine was administered at a dose of 20 ...
متن کاملDNA Repair in Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndromes
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) comprises approximately 25% of all leukemias in adults in the western world. It is a clonal disorder caused by uncontrolled proliferation and accumulation of myeloid progenitor cells in the bone marrow with impaired differentiation, leading ultimately to hematopoietic failure. Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is characterized by persistent pancytopenia, dysplastic hem...
متن کاملQuantitative PCR and RT-PCR in virology.
I n the last few years, molecular hybridization methods have been used extensively in basic and applied virology because of their technical flexibility and high specificity. Using these techniques, the detection of DNA and RNA viruses directly from clinical specimens, the analysis of the specific transcriptional activity of viral genes in vitro and in vivo, and the study of virus-host relations...
متن کاملHistopathology in the diagnosis and classification of acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, and myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative diseases.
In spite of the impressive advances in the area of molecular pathology, bone marrow morphology remains the diagnosis cornerstone to identify the various subtypes of myeloid neoplasms. Morphological examination of the bone marrow requires both bone marrow aspirate and bone marrow trephine biopsy. Immunohistochemistry of bone marrow biopsy with markers reactive in paraffin-embedded tissues repres...
متن کاملMyeloid malignancies: myelodysplastic syndromes, myeloproliferative disorders, and acute myeloid leukemia.
As hematopoietic cells proceed in differentiation from stem cells to committed progenitors to later stage mature forms, they undergo a sequence of morphologic, immunophenotypic, and functional changes that are a consequence of interaction between the underlying cellular genetic program and environmental cues, are linear for each cell lineage, and result in a pattern of antigenic expression rela...
