Effect of High VEGF-C mRNA Expression on Achievement of Complete Remission in Adult Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Abstract: Although vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) is known to be expressed in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) blasts, the relevance of VEGF-C in the clinical setting remains to be fully explored. We examined the effect of VEGF-C on achievement of complete remission (CR) in adult de novo AML and immune cell population profiles according to VEGF-C mRNA expression. In comparison of VEGF-C expression between the no-CR and CR groups, the CR group showed a trend toward higher levels of plasma VEGF-C (P = .088), wh… Show more

“…These findings were well-established in our previous reports, which showed a correlation between the induction chemotherapy response and VEGF-C expression in adult AML. The findings further support our thesis that the influx of VEGF-C from the surface of the AML blasts to intracellular migration mechanism in different ways in good vs. bad initial treatment responses should be considered ( 18 ). It is not confirmed yet, but the BM may play a critical role in the development of all hematopoietic cells, including NK cells when under the optimal microenvironment for their functional maturation.…”
