Abstract:
In the past two decades, childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cure rate has reached over 80% due to treatment advances, but some resistant ALL subtypes, such as those that carry the Philadelphia (Ph+) chromosome, still don’t respond to therapy. The presence of BCR-ABL in ALL children is correlated to a very poor prognosis, nevertheless, several long-scale studies have shown that Ph+ ALL is heterogeneous in terms of clinical parameters and patients respond differently to the therapy, what suggests the presence of additional mechanisms of leukemogenesis.

Abstract:
Acute leukemias, such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), are aggressive cancers characterized by the rapid proliferation of malignant hematopoietic cells. Throughout the last 60 years, childhood ALL’s long-term survival rates increased from less than 10% to more than 90%. Despite these improvements, certain subtypes remain hard to manage (e.g. mixed lineage leukemia, MLL-r), and even new therapies frequently fail. Therefore, identifying leukemia-cell restricted antigens in these ALL subtypes remains crucial in the quest to develop novel diagnostic tools and specific treatments. Traditional

DUX4 is a transcription factor normally expressed in the germline and early embryo. Its aberrant reactivation in somatic cells mediates cellular toxicity by activating a pro-apoptotic transcriptional program. In contrast, DUX4-IGH displays transforming abilities and its expression induces leukemia.

A metodologia proposta foi implementada e analisada utilizando dados de grupo de crianças diagnosticadas no Setor de Hematologia do Instituto de Puericultura e Pediatria Martagão Gesteira (IPPMG) da UFRJ e no Serviço de Hematologia Hospital Universitário Pedro Ernesto (HUPE) da UERJ que constituem uma considerável parcela dos caso

Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento CientÃfico e TecnolÃgico<br>Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common malignancy of childhood. It is a hematologic malignant neoplasm derived from undifferentiated young lymphoid lineage cells that accumulate and replace the normal population of blood cells. The Aurora kinase genes A, B and C are involved in cell cycle and encode proteins of great importance in the regulation of the mitosis process - separation of sister chromatids during metaphase / anaphase. The aim of this study was to evaluate the AURKA and AURKB genes in pediatric patients

Abstract:
Les leucémies aiguës lymphoblastiques T (LAL-T) sont des maladies des progéniteurs T qui surviennent chez l'enfant et le jeune adulte. Des facteurs intrinsèques et extrinsèques à la cellule blastique sous-tendent le développement leucémique. Les LAL-T humaines peuvent être étudiées in vivo après injection dans des souris immunodéficientes ou in vitro dans des systèmes de cocultures avec des cellules stromales MS5 surexprimant Delta-likel. Dans la première partie de cette thèse, nous avons étudié l'hétérogénéité de croissance dans ces deux modèles. Nos résultats montrent que la croissance est p

Abstract:
Relapsed ALL remams one of the most common causes of death from disease in children. Broad-range drug resistance is often associated with relapse, although its underlying molecular mechanisms remained poorly understood. The aim of this thesis was to establish an in vivo model using the non-obese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficient (NOD/SCID) mouse strain, to facilitate the engraftment, expansion and characterisation of childhood ALL cells, obtained from patients at diagnosis or relapse. Mice were inoculated with leukaemia cells from patients' biopsies and engraftment was monitored by the
