High expression of myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C) is associated with adverse-risk features and poor outcome in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia: a report from the Children’s Oncology Group
BACKGROUND Recent studies have identified myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C) as cooperating oncogene in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and suggested a contribution to the aggressive nature of at least some subtypes of AML, raising the possibility that MEF2C could serve as marker of poor-risk AML and, therefore, have prognostic significance. METHODS To test this hypothesis, we retrospectively qu...
متن کاملClinical and Laboratory Findings of Cup-Like Nuclei in Blasts with FLT3 Mutation in Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A Case Report
Biologically, Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is highly heterogenous. AML with cup-like blast morphology variant has been reported to have important role in risk group stratification and treatment implications. In pediatric age group, this morphology and its clinical implication is rarely discussed. Although this morphology variant is not stated in World Health Organization (WHO) classification of...
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 کاملThe Effect of Intensive Endurance Activity on Myocyte Enhancer Factor 2C Gene Expression of Slow and Fast Twitch Muscles in Male Wistar Rats: An Experimental Study
Background and Objectives: Myocyte enhancer factor 2c activates the genes of the slow-twitch muscle, the muscle which plays role in endurance activity. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a program of intensive endurance activity on MEF2c gene expression in fast and slow twitch skeletal muscles in wistar rats. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 14 mal...
متن کاملPrognostic Value of BAALC Expression in Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A Systematic Review
Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a malignant disorder involving blood cells, characterized by obstructed or distorted differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells. In cytogenetically normal AML (CN AML), molecular abnormalities in NPM, FLT3, CEBPA, and BAALC genes are observed. Initially, high BAALC (Brain and Acute Leukemia Cytoplasmic gene) expression was introduced in a study on AM...
