Specific Cytokines Are Significant Biomarkers for AML
Acute myeloid leukemia is a hematopoietic neoplasm derived from early progenitor myeloid cells; it is characterized by clonal expansion of myeloblasts, which are immature myeloid progenitors that accumulate in the bone marrow (BM). More...16 Oct 2019

Blood Monocyte Functions Altered in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease is characterized by the slow degeneration of the neurons in brain due to the abnormal accumulation of a protein called alpha-synuclein. This leads to the patients shaking and then to the slow, stiff movements which many people associate with the disease. More...15 Oct 2019

Two Different Mutations Identified as Cause of AML
Two very different mutations have been identified as unexpected partners in crime for causing the blood cancer acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Expert analysis helped reveal how this deadly duo is far more common in AML than thought. More...15 Oct 2019
Parkinson’s Gene Mutation Linked to Higher Risk of Leukemia
Parkinson's disease is a progressive nervous system disorder that affects movement. Symptoms start gradually, sometimes starting with a barely noticeable tremor in just one hand. Tremors are common, but the disorder also commonly causes stiffness or slowing of movement. More...10 Oct 2019


Hematological Parameters Detect Patients with Acute VTE
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) encompasses deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). VTE causes cardiovascular death and disability and the risk of PE‐associated mortality and morbidity extends far beyond the acute phase of the disease. More...08 Oct 2019
