The biology of chronic myelogenous leukemia progression: who, what, where, and why?
1Clinical Research Division, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, WA, USA. jradich@fhcrc.org
Abstract:
Before the days of transplantation and tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy, all cases of chronic myelogenous leukemia would inevitably proceed from chronic phase through accelerated and blast crisis, implying that there is a program of progression set in motion by unopposed BCR-ABL activity. Since then, much work has identified a plethora of genetic changes associated with progression, the common themes being changes in self-renewal, differentiation, and deregulation of apoptotic pathway. Some of the genes and pathways uncovered offer some progress for research on novel therapy for blast crisis.

Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

Disorders of Leukocytes
Leukopenia may result from bone marrow disorders, autoimmune diseases, and infectious diseases. For example, conditions such as multiple myeloma and aplastic anemia can impair the bone marrow's ability to produce adequate leukocytes. Similarly, autoimmune diseases like lupus and viral infections such as HIV can prompt the immune system...
