A Novel and Cytogenetically Cryptic t(7;21)(q36.1;q22) Disrupting RUNX1 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Abstract:
Translocations involving the RUNX1 transcription factor gene are frequently identified in leukemia patients, but the partner genes have been characterized in only about half of these cases. We report here a novel RUNX1 partner gene, KMT2C (MLL3), in a patient with de novo acute myeloid leukemia, having a novel and cytogenetically cryptic t(7;21)(q36.1;q22) leading to disruption of RUNX1 and KMT2C. This is the third cryptic RUNX1 rearrangement in myeloid and the fourth in hematologic malignancies.

Acute Pharyngitis
Acute pharyngitis is the inflammation of the back of the throat (pharynx), commonly resulting in a sore throat. It is a frequently encountered condition that prompts individuals to seek medical advice.
Classification
Acute pharyngitis can be categorized based on its underlying cause:
Acute Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Acute pancreatitis is characterized by rapid inflammation of the pancreas, often caused by factors like gallstone blockage or excessive alcohol consumption. Chronic pancreatitis, on the other hand, is a slow, progressive inflammation that may result from long-term alcohol abuse, obstructions in the pancreatic duct, or genetic factors.
The causes of acute pancreatitis include:
Acute Respiratory Failure-I
Definition: It is defined by specific criteria based on blood gas measurements. Hypoxemia happens when the partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) falls below 60 mmHg. At the same time,...
Acute Respiratory Failure-II
The underlying physiological abnormalities that contribute to hypoxemic respiratory failure include:
Acute Respiratory Failure-V
Ensure that patients are monitored continuously for their response to therapy, including changes in...
