The clinical significance of cytogenetic abnormalities in acute myeloid leukaemia.
During the last three decades it has become apparent that the majority of cases of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) are characterized by at least one of a variety of recurrent chromosomal abnormalities. These changes have been found in many instances to correlate closely with distinct morphological features and clinical characteristics, the molecular basis of which is becoming increasingly underst...
متن کاملImpact of ABCB1 Gene Polymorphisms and Smoking on the Susceptibility Risk of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia and Cytogenetic Response
Background: Imatinib mesylate (IM), a strong and selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has been approved as the front line of treatment in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. In spite of satisfactory results of imatinib in the treatment of patients with CML, patients with treatment failure or suboptimal response developed resistance that might be because of pharmacogenetic variants. This st...
متن کاملExpression Profiling of Microarray Gene Signatures in Acute and Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia in Human Bone Marrow
Background Classification of cancer subtypes by means of microarray signatures is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore as a potential to transform pathological diagnosis nonetheless, measurement of Indicator genes in routine practice appears to be arduous. In a preceding published study, we utilized real-time PCR measurement of Indicator genes in acute lymphoid leukaemia (ALL) and acute m...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferases Null Genotype in Acute Myeloid Leukaemia
Background: The glutathione S-transferase (GST) family of metabolising enzymes plays an important role in the detoxification of mutagens and carcinogens. The expression of many of these cancer susceptibility enzymes is genetically polymorphic. An increased frequency of GST-null genotypes has been associated with several malignancies. Objective: To investigate the rate of GSTT1 and GSTM1 null ge...

چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
