    Keywords : Acute myeloid leukemia; AML; cellular subpopulations; data analysis; precision medicine; Flowty; applied microbiology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease, making it difficult to treat. The standard treatment is intensive chemotherapy and has not changed in 40 years. However, recently new drugs and as less intensive treatment regimens have been approved in the US and in Europe. However. READ MORE

  3. 2. An Application of Cluster Analysis in Identifying and Evaluating Prognostic Subgroups for Therapy-Related Acute Myeloid Leukemia

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Stefanie Antonilli; [2022]
    Keywords : AML; lymphoma; heterogeneous data; cluster analysis; k-prototypes algorithm;

    Abstract : Treatment for lymphoma with alkylating therapy is known to increase the risk of secondary malignancies such as Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), although the risk is not fully understood. This study investigates the characteristics of AML that arise after lymphoma treatment in contrastto AML cases without a prior lymphoma. READ MORE

  4. 3. Identification and network analysis of candidate microRNA biomarkers in neuroblastoma : A meta-analysis

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Andreas Svensson; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Neuroblastoma constitutes roughly 8% of all childhood cancers where 95% of all neuroblastoma cases occur before the age of 10. The survival rate of infants and young children is very poor, which alone contributes to research novel biomarkers for classification methods, improved diagnosis and better anti-tumor therapies.

  5. 4. Differentiation Therapy of Acute Myeloid Leukemia

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

    Author : Moa Larsson; [2017]
    Keywords : AML; Leukemia; Acute Myeloid Leukemia; Differentiation Therapy; Differentiation; applied biochemistry; tillämpad biokemi; Medicine and Health Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by a differentiation block in the myeloid lineages of the hematopoiesis. After the success of the all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) differentiation therapy which overcomes this differentiation block for AML subtype acute promyelocytic leukemia, attempts have been made to find similar therapies for the remaining subtypes.

  6. 5. Metodutveckling för analys av serglycinuttrycket i blodet hos hundar

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Boel Sandros; [2008]
    Keywords : serglycin; realtime PCR; kvantitativ PCR; RT PCR; mRNA;

    Abstract : The development of quantitative, real-time PCR (qPCR) combined with the mapping of the canine genome opens new possibilities in veterinary medicine. This method provides a quick and accurate quantification of the expression of a specific gene at a given point in time and thereby also information of how the gene expression for a certain protein is influenced by various conditions and diseases.
