Variant Translocation

This paper presents a case of chronic myeloid leukemia with an earlier unknown variant translocation t (3; 9; 22) (p24; q34; q11) detected by cytogenetic research using the GTG-banding technique. Despite the absence of the classical Philadelphia chromosome, the presence of chromosome 9 and 22 derivatives, as well as the BCR-ABL fusion gene, allow this translocation to be considered pathogenetic for CML. A good response of the patient to the treatment with glivec is that there is no adverse effect on the pathogenesis of the disease of an additional genetic locus (3p24) involved in complex restructuring.

Background: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), is characterized by a reciprocal translocation t(9;22) and forms the BCR/ABL1 fusion gene, which is called the Philadelphia chromosome. The therapeutic targets for CML patients which are mediated with BCR/ABL1 oncogenic are tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as imatinib, dasatinib, and nilotinib. The latter two of which have been approved for the treatment of imatinib-resistant or intolerance CML patients. Mitotic catastrophe (MC) is one of the non-apoptotic mechanisms which frequently initiated in types of cancer cells in response to anti-cancer therapies; pharmacological inhibitors of G2 checkpoint members or genetic suppression of PLK1, PLK2, ATR, ATM, CHK1, and CHK2 can trigger DNA-damage-stimulated mitotic catastrophe. PLK1, AURKA/B anomalously expressed in CML cells, that phosphorylation and activation of PLK1 occur by AURKB at centromeres and kinetochores. Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of dasatinib on the expression of genes in MC and apoptosis pathways in K562 cells. Methods: Total RNA was isolated from K-562 cells treated with the IC50 value of dasatinib and untreated cells as a control group. The expression of MC and apoptosis-related genes were analyzed by the qRT-PCR system. Results: The array-data demonstrated that dasatinib-treated K562 cells significantly caused the decrease of several genes (AURKA, AURKB, PLK, CHEK1, MYC, XPC, BCL2, and XRCC2). Conclusion: The evidence supply a basis to support clinical researches for the suppression of oncogenes such as PLKs with AURKs in the treatment of types of cancer especially chronic myeloid leukemia.

In many clinical studies published over the past 20 years, adolescents and young adults (AYA) with Philadelphia chromosome negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph− ALL) were considered as a rather homogeneous clinico-prognostic group of patients suitable to receive intensive pediatric-like regimens with an improved outcome compared with the use of traditional adult ALL protocols. The AYA group was defined in most studies by an age range of 18–40 years, with some exceptions (up to 45 years). The experience collected in pediatric ALL with the study of post-induction minimal residual disease (MRD) was rapidly duplicated in AYA ALL, making MRD a widely accepted key factor for risk stratification and risk-oriented therapy with or without allogeneic stem cell transplantation and experimental new drugs for patients with MRD detectable after highly intensive chemotherapy. This combined strategy has resulted in long-term survival rates of AYA patients of 60–80%. The present review examines the evidence for MRD-guided therapies in AYA’s Ph− ALL, provides a critical appraisal of current treatment pitfalls and illustrates the ways of achieving further therapeutic improvement according to the massive knowledge recently generated in the field of ALL biology and MRD/risk/subset-specific therapy
