meta-analysis of gene expression profiles in acute promyelocytic leukemia reveals involved pathways
نویسندگان
چکیده
background: acute promyelocytic leukemia (apl) is a unique subtype of acute leukemia. apl is a curable disease; however, drug resistance, early mortality, disease relapse and treatment-related complications remain challenges in apl patient management. one issue underlying these challenges is that the molecular mechanisms of the disease are not sufficiently understood. materials and methods: in this study, we performed a meta-analysis of gene expression profiles derived from microarray experiments and explored the background of disease by functional and pathway analysis. results: our analysis revealed a gene signature with 406 genes that are up or down-regulated in apl. the pathway analysis determined that mapk pathway and its involved elements such as jun gene and ap-1 play important roles in apl pathogenesis along with insulin-like growth factor–binding protein-7. conclusions: the results of this meta-analysis could be useful for developing more effective therapy strategies and new targets for diagnosis and drugs.

متن کاملA New Indole Derivative Decreased SALL4 Gene Expression in Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia Cell Line (NB4)
Background: Acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) is a clonal disorder due to bone marrow failure and uncontrolled proliferation of myeloid lineage. Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a subtype of AML. Heterocyclic compounds, such as indole, are considered as attractive candidates for cancer therapy, due to their abundance in nature and known biological activity. Sal-like protein (SALL4) is a zi...
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 کاملExpression Analysis of Foxo3a Gene in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Southern Iranian Population
Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the most common childhood cancer with a peak incidence in children from 2-5 years old, might be associated with poor prognosis and resistance to therapy in specific cytogenetic backgrounds. FoxO3a, a member of the forkhead class ‘O’ (FoxO) transcription factors, is a main downstream target of PI3K/AKT pathway which regulates different ...
متن کاملAnalysis of BAALC gene Expression as prognosis factor in Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia in Iran
Background:Brain and Acute Leukemia Cytoplasmic (BAALC) is a gene which its expression is confined to progenitor cells; therefore, no expression has been illustrated in mature cells of bone marrow or white blood cells (WBC). In addition, high BAALC expression is associated with poor prognosis in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) individuals and is considered as an important risk factor in Cyto...
متن کاملGene Expression of Promyelocytic Leukemia Proteins and IFN-γ Is Reduced in Rotavirus-Infected Children
Background: Rotavirus infection is one of the most common gastroenteritis in the world, and a million cases are registered to enter hospital every year. Promyelocytic leukemia proteins (PMLs) are IFN-up-regulated proteins, and one of their critical functions is working as antiviral proteins. Recently, promyelocytic leukemia isoform II (PML-II) has been depicted as an isoform responsible for the...
