- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) includes a wide range of diseases with different clinical and biological features. NHL is usually presented as localized or generalized lymphadenopathy. It has been suggested that the HLA class I and II are associated with susceptibility to NHL. Different ethnic groups have been found to have different HLA class I and II alleles which affect NHL.
Objective: To evaluate the association of HLA class I and class II with Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in Iranian patients.
Methods: We performed a case-control genotyping study on 75 Iranian NHL patients who were selected from among the patients referred to the Bone Marrow Transplantation Department of Taleghani Hospital and 120 apparently healthy control subjects using the SSP-PCR by a commercial kit.
Results: Our results demonstrated that the HLA-A*26 (p: 0.026; OR: 8.5) and HLA-B*35 (p: 0.022; OR: 0.375) alleles had positive and negative associations with NHL disease, respectively. HLA-DRB1*13 allele showed decrease of frequency in patients in comparison with the controls, but it did not remain significant after correction.
Conclusions: Our results conclude that HLA-A*26 may represent as a genetic susceptibility factors in Iranian patients with Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a finding which generally supports contribution of genetic factors in the etiology of this disorder. In addition, these results may be useful in designing a peptide based vaccine for the Iranian NHL patients with HLA-A*26.- انتشار مقاله: 15-05-1395

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Objective(s): Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloid clonal proliferation disease defining by the presence of the Philadelphia chromosome that shows the movement of BCR-ABL1. In this study, the critical role of the Musashi2-Numb axis in determining cell fate and relationship of the axis to important signaling pathways such as Hedgehog and Notch that are essential for self-renewal pathways in CML stem cells will be reviewed meticulously.
Materials and Methods: In this review, a PubMed search using the keywords of Leukemia, signaling pathways, Musashi2-Numb was performed, and then we summarized different research works.
Results: Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as Imatinib significantly kill and remove the cell with BCR-ABL1 translocation, they are unable to target BCR-ABL1 leukemia stem cells. The main problem is stem cells resistance to Imatinib therapy. Therefore, the identification and control of downstream molecules/ signaling route of the BCR-ABL1 that are involved in the survival and self-renewal of leukemia stem cells can be an effective treatment strategy to eliminate leukemia stem cells, which supposed to be cured by Musashi2-Numb signaling pathway.
Conclusion: The control of molecules /pathways downstream of the BCR-ABL1 and targeting Musashi2-Numb can be an effective therapeutic strategy for treatment of chronic leukemia stem cells. While Musashi2 is a poor prognostic marker in leukemia, in treatment and strategy, it has significant diagnostic value.- انتشار مقاله: 25-02-1397

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Increased fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in b-globin gene disorders ameliorates the clinical symptoms of the underlying disease. 5-azacytidine, butyrate and hydroxyurea, have been shown to activate g-globin gene expression. It has also been found that hematopoietic growth factors can influence expression of g-globin in erythroid cultures and in animal models. This study was designed to evaluate the in vitro effects of the stem cell factor (SCF) and transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) on g-globin gene reactivation of erythroid precursors derived from CD133+ cells in vitro. Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) analysis showed increased expression of the g-globin transcript in cell culture groups containing either TGF- b or SCF or both as compared to control (2.2-, 2.7- and 5.5-fold, respectively) (p<0.01). Production of HbF in a differentiated population was demonstrated using flow cytometry. The results of this study suggest that SCF and TGF-b warrant further evaluation as potential therapeutic drugs for the treatment of b-globin gene disorders.

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی:
In recent years, lncRNAs have been considered as potential predictive biomarkers for prognosis of different human cancers. One example is the FAS antisense RNA 1 (FAS-AS1) located in the 10q23.31 region which is transcribed from the opposite strand of the FAS gene. FAS has an important role in regulation of apoptotic pathways and there is an inverse correlation between FAS-AS1 expression level and production of the soluble form of Fas, so that it might have potential as a therapeutic target to improve chemotherapy effectiveness. In the present study we therefore evaluated FAS-AS1 expression in blood samples of de novo AML patients and healthy controls using real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR). Our results indicated that the expression level of FAS-AS1 lncRNA demonstrated no significant difference between AML patients and healthy individuals. We conclude from the obtained data that FAS-AS1 is not an informative and reliable biomarker for AML diagnosis, although our results need to be confirmed in further studies.- انتشار مقاله: 15-02-1396

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی:
Accumulating evidence indicates that lncRNAs may have potential as new biomarkers to predict prognosis of different human cancers. HOTAIR lncRNA, transcribed from the human HOX locus, has been suggested to regulate gene expression of important target genes and up-regulation has been noted in malignancies. The role of HOX transcript antisense RNA in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) was investigated in the present case control study. HOTAIR expression was evaluated in blood samples of twenty five de novo AML patients and fifty healthy controls using real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR). Our results demonstrated no significant differences in HOTAIR lncRNA expression level between AML patients and healthy individuals. The obtained data indicate that HOTAIR is not an informative and reliable biomarker for AML diagnosis, although our results should be confirmed in further studies.- انتشار مقاله: 02-01-1396
