    Expression of different conformations of p53 in the blast cells of acute myeloblastic leukaemia is related to in vitro growth characteristics

    Expression of the wild-type p53 gene has an important role in cell differentiation, maturation and apoptosis. Mutation of the p53 gene is associated with tumour development and mutant p53 can promote cell prol...

    Wild-type p53 is required for apoptosis induced by growth factor deprivation in factor-dependent leukaemic cells

    The p53 gene is a growth control gene, abnormalities of which have been implicated in a variety of cancers. Recently wild-type p53 has been shown to exist in two interchangeable conformational variants, which ...

    Mechanisms of relapse in acute leukaemia: involvement of p53 mutated subclones in disease progression in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

    Mutations of the p53 tumour suppressor gene are infrequent at presentation of both acute myeloblastic leukaemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), being found in between 5–10% of AML and 2–3% of ALL. ...

    Interleukin-8/CXCL8 is a growth factor for human lung cancer cells

    Interleukin-8/CXCL8 (IL-8) is a chemokine and angiogenic factor. Recently, IL-8 was identified as an autocrine growth factor in several human cancers. Here, we investigated the expression and function of IL-8 ...

    Production and upregulation of granulocyte chemotactic protein-2/CXCL6 by IL-1β and hypoxia in small cell lung cancer

    Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is characterised by early and widespread metastasis. However, SCLC cells have so far been found to produce low levels of known pro-angiogenic factors. We speculated that SCLC cell...

    Prognostic significance of monitoring leukemia-associated immunophenotypes by eight-color flow cytometry in adult B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia

    Minimal residual disease (MRD) is of the most important factor for predicting prognosis and guiding treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In this study, we investigated the prognostic significance o...
