Preleukemia and leukemia with 12p- and 19q+ chromosome alterations following Alkeran therapy
Abstract:
Among 20 patients with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia or dysmyelopoietic preleukemia secondary to Alkeran therapy for another tumor, four had a del(12)(p11-p12) and four had a translocation to 19q13 among multiple karyotypic alterations in their neoplastic hematopoetic clones. It is suggested that these two cytogenetic abnormalities may occur nonrandomly in such hemic disorders and may play a limited role in their pathogenesis.

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...
