11. Clinical and Immunological Studies in Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia
Abstract : Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is characterised by the constitutively active tyrosine kinase BCR-ABL. Standard treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in the chronic phase (CP) of CML conveys excellent long-term prognosis but is associated with side effects and costs. READ MORE

12. Improving prognostication and treatment choices for patients with AML
Abstract : The treatment landscape of the aggressive haematological malignancy acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) has expanded but the prognosis is still unsatisfactory poor. Here, we aimed at improving prognostication and treatment choices in AML by addressing current clinical obstacles to successful AML treatment. READ MORE

13. Processing of TNF-receptors to soluble receptor forms in myeloid cells
Abstract : TNF (Tumor Necrosis Factor) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine which binds to two cell surface receptors, TNF-R55 and TNF-R75. The receptors undergo proteolytic cleavage and release a fragment (soluble TNF-receptors or TNF-Binding Protein), TNF-R55-BP and TNF-R75-BP. Soluble TNF-receptors are able to bind and inactivate TNF.

14. Sorting and processing of neutrophil granule proteins
Abstract : The neutrophil granulocytes have a critical role in innate immunity in particular through phagocytosis of microorganisms. Their cytoplasmic granule subsets store digestive enzymes and antibiotic proteins that are released during this event. READ MORE

Abstract : The terminal differentiation of leukemic cells is closely connected to their death. The concept of differentiation therapy originates from the idea that forced maturation of leukemic cells could induce cell death without the side-effects that are provoked by ordinary chemotherapy.
