differential wnt gene expression in various subtypes of acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Authors
abstract
background: dysregulation of wnt signaling has been reported in many malignancies. objective: this study was conducted to investigate the expression pattern of 14 members of the wnt gene family in different immunophenotypic subtypes of all. methods: semi-quantitative rt-pcr was performed on samples from 71 all patients and 36 age-matched healthy individuals. the all patients were categorized into ball (76%), t-all (22.6%) and mixed lineage (1.4%) and the b-all cases were further classified into pro-b, pre-bi, pre-bii and immature/mature-b based on immunophenotypic results. results: among the wnt genes, wnt-7b (p=0.026), wnt-9a (p=0.020) and wnt-16b (p=0.023) were significantly over-expressed, whereas wnt- 2b (p=0.033), wnt-5a (p=0.016), wnt-7a (p

Differential WNT Gene Expression in Various Subtypes of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Background: Dysregulation of WNT signaling has been reported in many malignancies. Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the expression pattern of 14 members of the WNT gene family in different immunophenotypic subtypes of ALL. Methods: Semi-quantitative RT-PCR was performed on samples from 71 ALL patients and 36 age-matched healthy individuals. The ALL patients were categorized in...
full textExpression 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...
full textSignificance of Cross Lineage Antigen Expression in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Background: Aberrant expression of cross-lineage antigens gives valuable insight into the diagnosis and prognosis of acute leukemia. In countries like India, cytogenetic tests are widely accessible. Exploring the prognostic value of an accessible test is of great importance. Therefore, establishing a population-specific immunophenotype database will enable to design an antibody panel equipped t...
full textExpression 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 ...

Expression of cell surface molecules associated with lymphoid and myeloid lineage differentiation on the blasts of 53 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was investigated. 1.9% of cases were only HLA"7DR+ 7.6% were HLA-DR+, CDI9+ 22.6% were HLA-DR+, CDI9+, CDI0+ 30.2% were HLADR+, CDI9+, CDlO±, CD20+ and 37.7% were HLA-DR±, CD7+, CD5±. Aberrant expression of one or more myeloi...
full textStudy of Gene Expression Signatures for the Diagnosis of Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) Through Gene Expression Array Analyses
Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) as the most common malignancy in children is associated with high mortality and significant relapse. Currently, the non-invasive diagnosis of pediatric ALL is a main challenge in the early detection of patients. In the present study, a systems biology approach was used through network-based analysis to identify the key candidate genes related to AL...
