BACKGROUND: Split-dose irradiation (1.75 Gy given weekly for 4 weeks) of C57BL/Ka mice induces the emergence of preleukemic cells (PLCs). These cells develop into leukemic cells after a latency period of 3-6 months. The survival and transformation of PLCs are dependent on radiation-induced alterations of the thymic epithelium and of resident lymphocyte (i.e., thymocyte) subpopulations in the thymus. PLCs can be eliminated, concomitantly with the restoration of the thymus, by grafting bone marrow cells immediately after the last irradiation. Our hypothesis was that any agent able to restore the thymus after leukemogenic irradiation would exert the same effects as a bone marrow graft. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Banding in leukemia. T2 - Techniques and implications. AU - Whang-Peng, J.. PY - 1979/1/1. Y1 - 1979/1/1. N2 - The presence of the Ph1 chromosome in the hematopoietic cells of individuals with apparent hematologic disorders is virtually diagnostic of CML. In patients without any hematologic or clinical symptoms, the presence of the Ph1 chromosome can be an indicator of the preleukemic state. Published data in cytogenetic studies of acute leukemia hae shown that approximately half the patients exhibit chromosomal abnormalities in their bone marrow. Rowley and Potter reviewed the available banding data for acute nonlymphocytic leukemia and noted that the incidence of chromosomally abnormal patients was underestimated by at least 10-20%. They found various nonrandom chromosome changes including an additional #8 chromosome, the loss of chromosome #7, a gain or loss of #21, frequent structural rearrangements of #8 and 21, and the loss of a sex chromosome. Less banding data are ...

The major focus of Prof. Meads current research programme is on the identification and genetic modelling of leukaemic and pre-leukaemic stem cells in myeloid malignancies. The aim is to identify the cellular and molecular biology of these key populations of cells which are capable of propagating disease relapse in patients and to understand how these cells might be more effectively targeted and eradicated. In order to achieve this, he aims to understand the normal cellular origin of leukaemic stem cells, and to thereby identify the perturbed molecular pathways, which result in the generation of preleukaemic clones, and eventually malignant transformation. There are 3 related approaches in this regard: 1. The development of genetically engineered leukaemia models to study the impact of specific mutation(s) on the establishment, evolution and propagation of leukaemic stem cells. 2. The study of leukaemia stem cells in patients with myeloid malignancies throughout their disease course, in order to ...

Although the t(12;21) translocation is a frequent prenatal initiating mutation in BCP-ALL (1-3, 6), the cellular signaling pathways corrupted by ETV6-RUNX1 in the preleukemic clone remain unknown. In the present article, we consistently showed in 2 in vitro models that ETV6-RUNX1 deregulates the cytoskeleton and compromises the chemotactic response to CXCL12.. It has been increasingly recognized that cancer initiation and progression are not solely a cancer cell autonomous process. Primary tissue cells live in complex microenvironments, characterized by heterotypic signaling between ancillary cells and hematopoietic cells (44). This signaling is considered to play a role in the regulation of the behavior of stem and precursor hematopoietic cells, including their survival, proliferation, and differentiation. For this reason, alterations in the environment or in the abilities of the stem and progenitors cells to interact with the innate niches play a crucial role in tumor initiation and ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Acute myelomonocytic leukemia in a horse.. AU - Spier, S. J.. AU - Madewell, B. R.. AU - Zinkl, J. G.. AU - Ryan, A. M.. PY - 1986/4/15. Y1 - 1986/4/15. N2 - A 7-year-old Quarter Horse stallion with a myeloproliferative disorder was examined because of colic, and an enterolith was removed surgically. The horse experienced secondary complications after abdominal surgery, and leukopenia and thrombocytopenia were detected. Five months later, the horse was examined for recurrent peripheral edema and for repair of an abdominal incisional hernia. Acute myelomonocytic leukemia was diagnosed, and treatment with low-dose (noncytocidal) cytosine arabinoside was unsuccessful. Necropsy revealed neoplastic infiltrate in the spleen, liver, lung, adrenal gland, testes, and eye. The persistent hematologic abnormalities before the onset of overt leukemia may represent hematopoietic dysplasia or preleukemia.. AB - A 7-year-old Quarter Horse stallion with a myeloproliferative disorder was examined ...

The Myelodysplastic syndrome is a group of diseases and conditions that affect how blood is made. These diseases were formerly known as preleukemia, mostly because sometimes they can lead to leukemia. Often, its name is shortened to MDS.. Myelodysplastic syndromes affect the bone marrow stem cells. The production of blood does not rely on good stem cells, but ones that have been modified genetically. This means that the production of red blood cells, sometimes of white blood cells and blood platelets changed. The production becomes inefficient, or goes wrong altogether. Most of the time, this manifests in anemia - not having enough blood. Depending on the severity of the condition, it can also cause hemorrhages and infections with fever.. Most of the people who have these conditions are 60 years or older, but younger people can get it too, especially if they went through a form of chemotherapy. Most of the suffers die from the disease, usually after six to thirty months. The only known cure is a ...

Current chemotherapies for T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) efficiently reduce tumor mass. Nonetheless, disease relapse attributed to survival of preleukemic stem cells (pre-LSCs) is associated with poor prognosis. Herein, we provide direct evidence that pre-LSCs are much less chemosensitive to existing chemotherapy drugs than leukemic blasts because of a distinctive lower proliferative state. Improving therapies for T-ALL requires the development of strategies to target pre-LSCs that are absolutely dependent on their microenvironment. Therefore, we designed a robust protocol for high-throughput screening of compounds that target primary pre-LSCs maintained in a niche-like environment, on stromal cells that were engineered for optimal NOTCH1 activation. The multiparametric readout takes into account the intrinsic complexity of primary cells in order to specifically monitor pre-LSCs, which were induced here by the ...

Although childhood high hyperdiploid acute lymphoblastic leukemia is associated with a favorable outcome, 20% of patients still relapse. It is important to identify these patients already at diagnosis to ensure proper risk stratification. We have investigated 11 paired diagnostic and relapse samples with single nucleotide polymorphism array and mutation analyses of FLT3, KRAS, NRAS and PTPN11 in order to identify changes associated with relapse and to ascertain the genetic evolution patterns. Structural changes, mainly cryptic hemizygous deletions, were significantly more common at relapse (P,0.05). No single aberration was linked to relapse, but four deletions, involving IKZF1, PAX5, CDKN2A/B or AK3, were recurrent. On the basis of the genetic relationship between the paired samples, three groups were delineated: (1) identical genetic changes at diagnosis and relapse (2 of 11 cases), (2) clonal evolution with all changes at diagnosis being present at relapse (2 of 11) and (3) clonal evolution ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Therapy‐related leukemia. A panmyelosis. AU - Foucar, Kathy. AU - McKenna, Robert W.. AU - Bloomfield, Clara D.. AU - Bowers, Timothy K.. AU - Brunning, Richard D.. PY - 1979/4. Y1 - 1979/4. N2 - Fifteen patients developed acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) 31 to 182 months following chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy for various malignancies and one non‐neoplastic disorder. The ANLL was commonly heralded by a brief preleukemic phase consisting of cytopenias and a variety of morphologic abnormalities. At diagnosis of ANLL, all of the patients had a panmyelosis with variation in the predominant abnormal cell line. Neutrophilic and erythroid abnormalities were most striking in 12 of the patients, megakaryocytic abnormalities predominated in 2 and monocytic abnormalities in 1. Pancytopenia, marked anisopoikilocytosis, normoblastemia, large hypogranular platelets, hypogranular neutrophils, pseudo‐Pelger‐Huet nuclei, low myeloblast counts and basophilia were the most common ...

Myelodysplastic Syndromes: Clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorders characterized by dysplasia in one or more hematopoietic cell lineages. They predominantly affect patients over 60, are considered preleukemic conditions, and have high probability of transformation into ACUTE MYELOID LEUKEMIA.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are associated with disease-initiating stem cells that are not eliminated by conventional therapies. Transcriptomic analysis of stem and progenitor populations in MDS and AML demonstrated overexpression of STAT3 that was validated in an independent cohort. STAT3 overexpression was predictive of a shorter survival and worse clinical features in a large MDS cohort. High STAT3 expression signature in MDS CD34+ cells was similar to known preleukemic gene signatures. Functionally, STAT3 inhibition by a clinical, antisense oligonucleotide, AZD9150, led to reduced viability and increased apoptosis in leukemic cell lines. AZD9150 was rapidly incorporated by primary MDS/AML stem and progenitor cells and led to increased hematopoietic differentiation. STAT3 knockdown also impaired leukemic growth in vivo and led to decreased expression of MCL1 and other oncogenic genes in malignant cells. These studies demonstrate that STAT3 is an adverse ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - EVIDENZA DI UN DIFETTO INTRINSECO DELLA REATTIVITA LINFOCITARIA IN TOPI AKR. AU - Collavo, D.. AU - Biasi, G.. AU - Colombatti, A.. AU - Varotto, M.. AU - Fabbris, R.. PY - 1975. Y1 - 1975. N2 - Like their AKR/J parent, (CBAT6T6 x AKR/J)F 1 mice are carriers of endogenous G MuLV and present a high incidence of spontaneous lymphoma. However, the F 1 hybrids do not present the immunological deficits seen in pre leukemic AKR/J mice since they respond normally to in vitro PHA stimulation and to in vivo LPS immunization. These observations suggest that there is probably no direct relation between the presence of MuLV and immunological impairment. Studies have been carried out to ascertain whether the altered immunological reactivity seen in AKR/J mice is related to factors intrinsic to the immunocompetent cells or to environmental inadequacy. Thus, (CBAT6T6 x AKR/J)F 1 mice were thymectomized, irradiated, reconstituted with syngeneic bone marrow and simultaneous transplant of CBAT6T6 ...

Nausea and vomiting continue to be distressing side effects of cancer chemotherapy. We recently reported (1) a randomized, double-blind study in which a single 10-mg dose of intravenous dexamethasone markedly reduced the gastrointestinal side effects of mildly emetogenic chemotherapy for outpatients with breast cancer. We now report the safety and efficacy of repeated doses of dexamethasone in eliminating the nausea and vomiting of induction chemotherapy for patients with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia.. All patients included in the study were adults with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (at diagnosis or on relapse) at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and were treated with ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Radiation leukemia virus-induced T-cell lymphomas with common T-cell receptor variable region structure and similar binding specificity for retrovirus. AU - ONeill, H C. PY - 1991/11. Y1 - 1991/11. N2 - The 5C2 cell line was derived following culture of mouse spleen cells exposed in vivo and in vitro to radiation leukemia virus (RadLV) containing supernatants from the C6VL/1 T cell lymphoma. This cell line has been found to express an alpha beta T-cell receptor (TCR) identifiable with the Mab124-40 anti-clonotypic antibody which is specific for C6VL/1. It has been shown to be genetically and phenotypically distinct from C6VL/1 with a unique phenotype, i.e. CD4-, CD8-, CD3+, TCR-alpha beta. 5C2 has been shown to express high levels of alpha and beta chain mRNA and to utilize the same or similar V alpha and V beta region genes as C6VL/1. Whereas C6VL/1 binds cross-reactively to both RadLV/C6VL and an unrelated isolate RadLV/VL3, 5C2 has binding specificity for only RadLV/C6VL, ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - T-cell differentiative capacity of haematopoietic stem cells immortalized in vitro with radiation leukemia virus. AU - Ho, E S. AU - ONeill, H C. PY - 1993/8. Y1 - 1993/8. N2 - The differentiative capacity of a unique haematopoietic cell type has been investigated. These cells have been found to be a common target in vitro to infection and immortalization by radiation leukemia viruses (RadLVs). Many continuous lines of these cells have been generated. Since RadLV retroviruses are known to be strictly T-cell-tropic in vivo, we have questioned whether these cells are precursors of T cells. To this end, the RadLV-induced C1-V13D cell line has been inoculated into thymus of sublethally irradiated syngeneic CBA/H mice and tested for capacity to proliferate and differentiate, i.e. express T-cell markers. When inoculated in high number, C1-V13D cells can induce a thymic tumour within 14 to 21 days. Expression of T-cell markers on these cells was determined by fluorescence-activated ...

Most forms of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are associated with a poor prognosis. One exception is acute promyelocytic leukemia, which is largely curable by two drugs, one originating from traditional Chinese medicine. Both drugs act by forcing leukemic precursor cells to differentiate into mature cell types that no longer divide. Given that all forms of AML are characterized by preleukemic myeloid cells whose differentiation is arrested, Sykes et al. performed an unbiased screen for compounds that induce myeloid differentiation. Unexpectedly, the most active compounds in mouse and human models were inhibitors of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase, an enzyme involved in pyrimidine biosynthesis. These inhibitors slowed AML development in mice and thus may merit further study as a therapy for the human disease.. Cell 167, 171 (2016).. ...

Mouse monocytic Mm-A, Mm-P, Mm-S1, and Mm-S2 cells are sublines of mouse monocytic and immortalized Mm-1 cells derived from spontaneously differentiated, mouse myeloblastic M1 cells. Although these subline cells retain their monocytic characteristics in vitro, Mm-A and Mm-P cells are highly leukemogenic to syngeneic SL mice and athymic nude mice, whereas Mm-S1 and Mm-S2 cells are not or are only slightly leukemogenic. To better understand the molecular mechanisms of these levels of leukemogenicity, we investigated putative leukemogenesis-associated genes or oncogenes involved in the maintenance of growth, especially in vivo, by means of differential mRNA display. We isolated a fragment clone (15T01) from Mm-P cells. The mRNA probed with 15T01 was expressed at high levels in leukemogenic Mm-P and Mm-A cells but not in nonleukemogenic Mm-S1 and Mm-S2 cells. The gene corresponding to 15T01, named TRA1, was isolated from an Mm-P cDNA library. The longest open reading frame of the TRA1 clone predicts ...
