As CD13 is selectively expressed in angiogenesis, it can serve as a target for molecular imaging tracers to noninvasively visualize angiogenic processes in vivo. The CD13-targeting moiety NGR was synthesized and cyclized by native chemical ligation (NCL) instead of disulfide bridging, leading to a cyclic peptide backbone: cyclo(Cys-Asn-Gly-Arg-Gly) (coNGR). Beside this new monomeric coNGR, a te...

t cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all) is an invasive disease with a higher incidence in children and adolescents. in terms of immunophenotype, t-all is positive for cd2, cd7, cd34 and hla-dr, and the level of these markers is increased with increasing age. in addition, the myeloid markers (cd13, cd33) are sometimes expressed in t-all. in this study, we introduce a rare case of a 28-year-old...

the significance of immunophenotyping is growing day by day. it provides basic information in regard to classification and prognosis of acute leukemia which helps the management of patients. this study was conducted to identify cd markers in leukemic patients admitted to tabriz, in northwestern iran. immunophenotyping of 60 patients with acute leukemia was determined. patients with acute myelog...

Immunophenotyping using a panel of 15 antibodies was performed in 267 (87%) and cytogenetic analysis in 196 (64%) of 307 children under 17 years of age enrolled in the AML-BFM-87 study. Treatment consisted of cytosine arabinoside, daunorubicin, etoposide induction and a 6-week seven-drug consolidation chemotherapy, followed by two blocks of high-dose cytosine arabinoside with or without cranial...

Acute monoblastic leukemia (acute myeloid leukemia [AML], French-American-British type M5a) with leukemia cutis developed in a patient 6 weeks after the initiation of erythropoietin (EPO) therapy for refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts. AML disappeared from both marrow and skin after the discontinuation of EPO. Multiparameter flow cytometric analysis of bone marrow cells demonstrated coe...
