Stem cells in chronic myelogenous leukemia

Hematology/oncology Clinics of North America
C M Verfaillie

Abstract

This article discusses briefly the molecular consequences of the BCR-ABL fusion gene. It then reviews the current evidence supporting the notion that chronic myelogenous leukemia in its chronic phase is a clonal, hematopoietic, stem cell disease in which malignant hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells respond to "normal" external proliferation and differentiation stimuli, but in which such responses are altered owing to defects in the stem and progenitor cells as a result of the BCR-ABL oncogene.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.

Adult Stem Cells

Adult stem cells reside in unique niches that provide vital cues for their survival, self-renewal, and differentiation. They hold great promise for use in tissue repair and regeneration as a novel therapeutic strategies. Here is the latest research.
