Expression of a conditional AML1-ETO oncogene bypasses embryonic lethality and establishes a murine model of human t(8;21) acute myeloid leukemia.

TL;DR: The AML1/CBFbeta transcription factor complex, a frequent target of chromosomal translocations in leukemia, is essential for the generation of definitive hematopoietic stem cells.

Evidence for a 15; 17 translocation in every patient with acute promyelocytic leukemia

TL;DR: Cytogenetic specimens were obtained from blood or bone marrow in 27 patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia, including four with the microgranular variant, and data indicate that the 15;17 translocation may be found in every patient if optimal chromosome analysis is performed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic impact of c-KIT mutations in core binding factor leukemias. an Italian retrospective study

TL;DR: Findings indicate that c-KIT TKD(816) mutation has a negative impact on the outcome of AML with t(8;21), which is associated with a high white blood cell count at diagnosis and a higher incidence of extramedullary leukemia during the course of the disease.

Establishment of a human acute myeloid leukemia cell line (Kasumi-1) with 8;21 chromosome translocation.

TL;DR: The Kasumi-1 cell line could be a useful tool for elucidating the pathophysiology of AML with t(8;21) and neither granulocytic nor eosinophilic maturation was observed in the liquid culture by the addition of dimethyl sulfoxide, G-CSF, or IL-5, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rearrangements of chromosome 3 involving bands 3q21 and 3q26 are associated with normal or elevated platelet counts in acute nonlymphocytic leukemia.

TL;DR: Data suggest that in patients with ANLL, abnormalities of chromosome 3 which simultaneously involve bands 3q21 and 3q26 are associated with unusually high platelet counts.
