Encephalopathy syndrome in children with hemato-oncological disorders is not always posterior and reversible.

30 Oct 2008 BACKGROUND: Posterior reversible leukoencephalopathy (PRES) is a clinical-radiological event that can affect children undergoing chemotherapy regimen. Studies have shown that it is not always reversible, in spite of its original definition. We ... Read more...

Clinical and prognostic value of discrepancies in microsatellite DNA regions between recipient and donor in human leukocyte antigen-identical allogeneic transplantation setting.

13 Oct 2008 BACKGROUND: Detection of recipient versus donor disparities in microsatellite DNA regions (short tandem repeats [STR]) allows for sensitive and specific monitorization of the degree of hematopoietic chimerism. It is well known that disparities ... Read more...

Cell cycle regulation by oncogenic tyrosine kinases in myeloid neoplasias: from molecular redox mechanisms to health implications.

29 Sep 2008 Neoplastic expansion of myeloid cells is associated with specific genetic changes that lead to chronic activation of signaling pathways, as well as altered metabolism. It has become increasingly evident that transformation relies on the ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Hematologic Neoplasms'

Definition: Neoplasms located in the blood and blood-forming tissue (the bone marrow and lymphatic tissue). The commonest forms are the various types of LEUKEMIA, of LYMPHOMA, and of the progressive, life-threatening forms of the MYELODYSPLASTIC SYNDROMES.
