<i>TBL1XR1-RARB</i> as an oncogenic protein exerts effects similar to those of <i>PML-RARA</i>, underpinning the importance of retinoic acid pathway alterations in the pathogenesis of APL.<b>Significance:</b> These findings report a novel and distinct genetic subtype of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) by illustrating that the majority of APL without RARA translocations harbor RARB translocations.<i></i>.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by a specific chromosome translocation involving RARalpha and one of four fusion partners: PML, PLZF, NPM, and NuMA genes.
Acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL) with t(11;17)/PLZF-RARalpha responds poorly to all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide (As2O3), in contrast to APL with t(15;17)/PML-RARalpha.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by a specific translocation (15;17)(q22;q21), resulting in the formation of PML/RARalpha chimeric transcripts.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cells carry a mutated gene that is the result of a translocation in which the retinoic acid receptor alpha (RAR alpha) gene is fused to the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene, coding for a fusion protein, PML/RAR alpha.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is typified by the t(15;17) translocation, which leads to the formation of the PML/RARA fusion gene and predicts a beneficial response to retinoids.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by a specific translocation, t(15;17), that fuses the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene with the RA receptor RARalpha.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is associated with chromosomal translocations that always involve the RARalpha gene, which variably fuses to one of several distinct loci, including PML or PLZF (X genes).
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is associated with chromosomal translocations, invariably involving the retinoic acid receptor alpha (RAR alpha) gene fused to one of several distinct loci, including the PML or PLZF genes, involved in t(15;17) or t(11;17), respectively.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is specifically associated with a reciprocal translocation, t(15; 17)(q22; q21), leading to the formation of a fusion of the retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RARA) gene and the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene.
APL is associated with a reciprocal chromosomal translocation of chromosomes 15 and 17, which results in a fusion protein comprising PML and the retinoic acid receptor alpha.
Acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL) is characterized by the t(15;17)(q22;q21) leading to the formation of PML-RARalpha and RARalpha-PML fusion genes which provide suitable targets for the assessment of minimal residual disease (MRD).
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by a specific chromosome translocation t(15;17), which results in the fusion of the promyelocytic leukemia gene (PML) and retinoic acid receptor alpha gene (RARalpha).
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by a translocation between the promyelocytic leukemia gene (PML) on chromosome 15 and the retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RARalpha) gene on chromosome 17.
Acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL) is characterized by a unique genetic marker in virtually 100% of cases, i.e. the PML/RARalpha fusion gene which is readily amplified by the reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is due to a chromosomal t(15;17) translocation which involves a novel human gene, Myl, (also named PML) and the retinoic acid (RA) receptor alpha (RAR-alpha) gene.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by the t(15;17)(q22;q21), which results in the fusion of the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene at 15q22 with the retinoic acid alpha-receptor (RARalpha) at 17q21.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cells carrying the PML-RARa fusion protein, respond well by differentiating in their response to an all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) treatment.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a subtype of myeloid leukemia characterized by the chromosomal translocation t(15:17) that leads to the expression of promyelocytic leukemia/retinoic acid receptor-alpha (PML/ RARalpha) oncofusion protein.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), characterized by a translocation between the promyelocytic leukemia gene (PML) on chromosome 15 and the retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RARalpha) gene on chromosome 17, has become a model for targeted treatment of cancer.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is associated with the t(15;17)(q22;q21) translocation which causes the fusion of the retinoic acid alpha gene (RARA) on 17q21 to the promyelocytic leukemia gene (PML) on 15q22.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cells are characterized by PML/RARalpha fusion protein, high responsiveness to arsenic trioxide (ATO)-induced cytotoxicity and an abundant generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
