Transcripción fusionada de los genes abl y bcr en la leucemia mielógena crónica
Nature
|June 13, 1985
Resumen
La leucemia mielógena crónica (LMC) implica una translocación cromosómica que crea un gen fusionado. Este gen produce un ARN de 8 kilobases y probablemente una proteína que impulsa el proceso de cáncer.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Oncología Oncología.
- Biología Molecular Biología Molecular
- Genética La genética.
Sus antecedentes:
- La leucemia mielógena crónica humana (LMC) está relacionada con una anomalía cromosómica específica.
- Esta anomalía implica una translocación recíproca entre los cromosomas 9 y 22.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Para caracterizar la transcripción de ARN asociada con la translocación cromosómica específica de la LMC.
- Para investigar la base molecular del proceso maligno en la LMC.
Principales métodos:
- Análisis de ARN específico para la leucemia mielógena crónica.
- Caracterización de una molécula de ARN de 8 kilobases.
Principales resultados:
- Se identificó un ARN de 8 kilobases específico para la LMC.
- Este ARN es una transcripción fusionada resultante de la translocación del oncogén abl y el gen bcr.
Conclusiones:
- El transcrito de ARN fusionado identificado es un marcador molecular clave en la LMC.
- La proteína fundida resultante está implicada en la patogénesis de la leucemia mielógena crónica.

Targeted Cancer Therapies
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...
