Patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) are characterized by the highest expression of Wilms' tumor 1 (WT1) gene compared with other subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia, and yet this molecular marker is almost never used for risk stratification and in therapy response monitoring.
The relationship between the expression levels of Wilms' tumor-1 gene (WT1) mRNA in peripheral blood before allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) and risk of mortality in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients in noncomplete remission (non-CR) remains quite elusive.
The Wilm's tumor 1 (WT1) gene, which is highly expressed in >80% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and its increased expression level may cause poor clinical outcomes, is a potential MRD marker of hematological neoplasms.
The absence of relevant guidelines for Wilms tumor 1 (WT1) gene quantification as a measurable residual disease (MRD) assessment for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) has limited the widespread use in practice.
Genetic studies have identified recurrent somatic mutations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, including in the Wilms' tumor 1 (<i>WT1</i>) gene.
Diagnostic material of de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients was used to measure Wilms' tumor 1 (WT1) expression in bulk leukemic cells and rare subsets, e.g. leukemic stem cells (LSCs).
Wilms Tumor 1 Expression at Diagnosis Correlates With Genetic Abnormalities and Polymorphism But Is Not Independently Prognostic in Acute Myelogenous Leukemia: A Hokkaido Leukemia Net Study.
The aberrant overexpression of Wilms' tumor-1 gene (WT1) plays an important role in blast cell survival and resistance to chemotherapy in acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
The Wilms tumor 1 (WT1)-associated protein (WTAP) is upregulated in many tumors, including, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), where it plays an oncogenic role by interacting with different proteins involved in RNA processing and cell proliferation.
The aberrant overexpression of Wilms tumor-1 (WT1) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) plays an important role in blast cell survival by enhancing proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis.
Wilms' Tumor 1 Gene Expression Using a Standardized European LeukemiaNet-Certified Assay Compared to Other Methods for Detection of Minimal Residual Disease in Myelodysplastic Syndrome and Acute Myelogenous Leukemia after Allogeneic Blood Stem Cell Transplantation.
Although Wilms tumor 1 (WT1)-associated protein (WTAP) was initially found to be a specific WT1-binding protein, it has increasingly attracted attention because of its oncogenic role in various types of malignancies, including cholangiocarcinoma, glioblastoma and acute myeloid leukemia.
In this phase 2 study, we investigated the effect of vaccination with dendritic cells (DCs) electroporated with Wilms' tumor 1 (<i>WT1</i>) messenger RNA (mRNA) as postremission treatment in 30 patients with AML at very high risk of relapse.
The minimal residual disease (MRD) before and after a haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) of 86 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in complete remission (CR) was measured using flow cytometry (FCM) and Wilms tumor 1 (WT1).
In addition, MEG3 is proven to be transcriptionally activated by Wilms' tumor 1 (WT1), dysregulation of which by epigenetic silencing or mutations is causally involved in AML.
This study was done in molecular pathology and cancer research center from April 2014 to June 2015, RQ-PCR method was used to determine the WT1 gene expression in BM and/or PB samples from 126 patients of AML, we cloned both WT1 and ABL genes for creating a standard curve, and we calculate copy number of WT1 genes in patients.
High prognostic value of pre-allogeneic stem cell transplantation minimal residual disease detection by WT1 gene expression in AML transplanted in cytologic complete remission.
We formerly demonstrated that vaccination with Wilms' tumor 1 (WT1)-loaded autologous monocyte-derived dendritic cells (mo-DCs) can be a well-tolerated effective treatment in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients.
The polymorphism rs16754 of the WT1 gene has been described as a possible prognostic marker in different acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cohorts; however, it is not supported by all the studies.
