The genesp53, mdm2, p21, c-myc,bcr/abl, bcr, bcl2, bax, and gapdh participate in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation, apoptosis and cell distribution for the cell cycle ex vivo in the Ph+cells of chronic myeloid leukemia containing the Ph chromosome andbcr/abloncogene. Expression of these genes correlates with regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation by alternating proliferation and maturation stages for three main Ph+cell types that occur under chronic myeloid leukemia. Thep53, p21, mdm2, and gapdh genes overexpress in active proliferating myeloid cells in the cell cycle S+ G2/M phases and when the phases are coincident with the proliferation stage. Expression of these genes decreases to a considerable level under alternation of the Ph+cell proliferation and maturation stages and whenever the expression is greatly diminished under significant neutrophil accumulation and especially under repeated alternation of the stages. In the course of neutrophil maturation, gene expression levels decrease in the range of gapdh > actin > c-myc, bcr/abl,p21 > p53 > bcl2 > bax.The expression levels of these genes in neutrophils are lower than those in myelocytes and lower by an order of magnitude than that in the cells with a prolonged proliferation stage. TheBcr/ablexpression gene under prolonged maturation and neutrophil accumulation is inhibited; however it is enhanced by 2–3 times for the proliferation stage with myelocyte accumulation. Minimalbcr/ablexpression is observed under overexpression ofp53, mdm2, p21, c-myc,as well as under cell maximum at the S and G2/M phases. Bcr/abloverexpression is observed under low expression of thep53, p21, mdm2genes. In the Ph+ cells with a high P/D efficiency index (5–20), overexpression of the genes in the range ofbcr> gapdh>bcr/abl, as well as a decreased expression of thep53, bcl2, mdm2, p21<< gapdh genes is observed for Ph+cells from the CML blast crisis and CML acceleration phase. Low control of cell proliferation and cell cycle by gene-regulators presumably promotesbcr/abloverexpression and activаtes the production ofbcr/abl+ cells. Apoptosis in the Ph+ cells is induced by expression of thebax > bcl2, р53, p21, c-myc andgapdhgenes. The blocking of Ph+cell apoptosis, neutrophil accumulation, and decrease in the expression of the p53, mdm2 and p21, c-myc,bcr/abl genes occur at the maturation stage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
