Partial trisomy 21 contributes to T-cell malignancies induced by JAK3-activating mutations in murine models

This JAK3A572V knockin model is a relevant new tool for testing the efficacy of JAK inhibitors in JAK3-related hematopoietic malignancies

Risk factors for symptomatic venous thromboembolism during therapy for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia

We found two known risk factors in a large cohort of children treated for ALL and identified other factors associated with venous thromboembolism

Familial aggregation of childhood and adult cancer in the Utah genealogy

We explored familial aggregation of cancer in a population-based case-control study using genealogical record linkage and designed to overcome limitations of...

Novel oncogenic PDGFRA mutations in pediatric high-grade gliomas

The outcome for children with high-grade gliomas (HGG) remains dismal, with a 2-year survival rate of only 10% to 30%.

Research

Hypomethylation of the CTGF gene locus is a common feature of paediatric pre-B acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

We identified consistent hypomethylation of the CTGF locus in primary pre-B ALL specimens regardless of CTGF expression.

Bioenergetic modulation overcomes glucocorticoid resistance in T-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

Drug-resistant forms of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) are a leading cause of death from disease in children.

Research

Novel CT domain-encoding splice forms of CTGF/CCN2 are expressed in B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2) has been shown previously to be aberrantly expressed in a high proportion of paediatric precursor B cell acute...

Home pesticide exposures and risk of childhood leukemia: Findings from the childhood leukemia international consortium

In this investigation, the authors found an association between home pesticide exposure before birth and during a child's early years and acute lymphoblastic...

Home paint exposures and risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia: findings from the Childhood Leukemia International Consortium

This paper demonstrated that home paint exposure shortly before conception, during pregnancy, and/or after birth appeared to increase the risk of childhood ALL.

Heterogeneity in mechanisms of emergent resistance in pediatric T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Biological changes associated with T-ALL relapse and resistance are stochastic and highly individual
