Interactions between acute lymphoblastic leukemia and bone marrow stromal cells influence response to therapy

To identify links between drug resistance and gene deregulation we used oligonucleotide microarray technology.

MYCN sensitizes neuroblastoma to the MDM2-p53 antagonists Nutlin-3 and MI-63

We hypothesized that reactivation of p53 by inhibition of its negative regulator will result in p53-mediated growth arrest and apoptosis.

Maternal dietary intake of folate and vitamins b6 and B12 during pregnancy and the risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Parental prenatal smoking and risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia

The association between parental smoking and risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was investigated

Pre-natal, clonal origin of t(1;11)(p32;q23) acute lymphoblastic leukemia in monozygotic twins

Investigation of this rare mixed lineage leukemia cytogenetic abnormality aims to provide further evidence of the genetic changes that underpin this leukemia.

Constitutive Activation of RAS/MAPK Pathway Cooperates with Trisomy 21 and Is Therapeutically Exploitable in Down Syndrome B-cell Leukemia

Children with Down syndrome (constitutive trisomy 21) that develop acute lymphoblastic leukemia (DS-ALL) have a 3-fold increased likelihood of treatment-related mortality coupled with a higher cumulative incidence of relapse, compared with other children with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL).

Targeting cytokine- and therapy-induced PIM1 activation in preclinical models of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and lymphoma

IL7 and glucocorticoids coordinately drive aberrant activation of PIM1 and suggests that T-ALL and T-LBL patients could benefit from PIM inhibition

Challenges posed by COVID-19 to children with cancer

Development of standardised guidance by national and regional authorities for reducing the risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission to children with cancer

Germline Elongator mutations in Sonic Hedgehog medulloblastoma

Genetic predisposition to proteome instability may be a determinant in the pathogenesis of paediatric brain cancers
