Abstract

Expression of p14(ARF) and p16(INK4a) tumor suppressor genes was investigated in 109 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The p14(ARF) and p16(INK4a) mRNA levels were significantly low in patients in chronic phase (CP) at presentation and high in patients treated with interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha), especially in non-responders. A moderate overexpression of p14(ARF) with a normal expression of p16(INK4a) was observed in imatinib-resistant patients. Although protein expression did not consistently match mRNA levels, a role for the two cell cycle regulators in the IFN-alpha signaling pathway is suggested as well as a relation with the resistance to IFN-alpha or imatinib therapy.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.

Cell Cycle Pathways

Cell cycle is a complex process regulated by several signal transduction pathways and enzymes. Here is the latest research on regulation of cell cycle and cell cycle pathways.
