Association between class III obesity and overall survival in previously untreated younger patients with acute myeloid leukemia enrolled on SWOG S1203
There has been ongoing debate on the association between obesity and outcomes in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Currently few studies have stratified outcomes by class I obesity, class II obesity, and class III...

A randomized phase III study of standard versus high-dose cytarabine with or without vorinostat for AML
Prior experience indicated that use of higher doses of cytarabine during induction for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with a histone deacetylase inhibitor resulted in high response rates. S1203 was a randomized ...

Open AccessVerification of prognostic expression biomarkers is improved by examining enriched leukemic blasts rather than mononuclear cells from acute myeloid leukemia patients
Studies have not systematically compared the ability to verify performance of prognostic transcripts in paired bulk mononuclear cells versus viable CD34-expressing leukemic blasts from patients with acute myel...

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation compared to chemotherapy consolidation in older acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients 60–75 years in first complete remission (CR1): an alliance (A151509), SWOG, ECOG-ACRIN, and CIBMTR study
The preferred post-remission therapy for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR1) remains uncertain. In this retrospective, multicenter study, we compared the outcomes...

Relative survival following response to 7 + 3 versus azacytidine is similar in acute myeloid leukemia and high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes: an analysis of four SWOG studies
Here we quantify and compare the absolute and relative overall survival (OS) benefits conveyed by complete remission (CR) in AML and high-risk MDS, and by CR with incomplete count recovery (CRi) in AML and by ...

Phase 1/2 trial of GCLAM with dose-escalated mitoxantrone for newly diagnosed AML or other high-grade myeloid neoplasms
Outcomes with “7 + 3” are often unsatisfactory in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Trials demonstrating improved outcomes with high-dose cytarabine, addition of cladribine, or escalated anthracycline doses prompt...

Safety and pharmacokinetics of the antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) LY2181308 as a single-agent or in combination with idarubicin and cytarabine in patients with refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
Survivin is expressed in tumor cells, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML), regulates mitosis, and prevents tumor cell death. The antisense oligonucleotide sodium LY2181308 (LY2181308) inhibits survivin expr...

Histone genes are located at the sphere loci of newt lampbrush chromosomes
In situ hybridization experiments on mitotic and lampbrush chromosomes show that histone genes and an associated 222 bp repeated sequence, satellite 1, are located at or near the sphere loci of chromosomes 2 a...

Cytological evidence of transcription of highly repeated DNA sequences during the lampbrush stage in Triturus cristatus carnifex
Highly repeated, or satellite, DNA fractions have been isolated from total Triturus cristatus carnifex DNA by renaturation kinetics, caesium salt centrifugation and restriction endonuclease digestion. We have sho...

Satellite DNA is transcribed on lampbrush chromosomes
During the lampbrush stage of oogenesis there is widespread transcription, and it has been estimated that the total amount of DNA transcribed may be an order of magnitude greater than that required to produce ...
