| 1 | Pathogenesis and clinical management of Helicobacter pylori gastric infection显示文摘Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)is a gram-negative bacterium that infects approximately 4.4 billion individuals worldwide.However,its prevalence varies among different geographic areas,and is influenced by several factors.The infection can be acquired by means of oral-oral or fecal-oral transmission,and the pathogen possesses various mechanisms that improve its capacity of mobility,adherence and manipulation of the gastric microenvironment,making possible the colonization of an organ with a highly acidic lumen.In addition,H.pylori presents a large variety of virulence factors that improve its pathogenicity,of which we highlight cytotoxin associated antigen A,vacuolating cytotoxin,duodenal ulcer promoting gene A protein,outer inflammatory protein and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase.The host immune system,mainly by means of a Th1-polarized response,also plays a crucial role in the infection course.Although most H.pylori-positive individuals remain asymptomatic,the infection predisposes the development of various clinical conditions as peptic ulcers,gastric adenocarcinomas and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas.Invasive and non-invasive diagnostic methods,each of them with their related advantages and limitations,have been applied in H.pylori detection.Moreover,bacterial resistance to antimicrobial therapy is a major challenge in the treatment of this infection,and new therapy alternatives are being tested to improve H.pylori eradication.Last but not least,the development of effective vaccines against H.pylori infection have been the aim of several research studies. | Breno Bittencourt de Brito Filipe Ant?nio Fran?a da Silva Aline Silva Soares Vinícius Afonso Pereira Maria Luísa Cordeiro Santos Mariana Miranda Sampaio Pedro Henrique Moreira Neves Fabrício Freire de Melo | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,37: | 84 |
| 2 | Helicobacter pylori infection: Beyond gastric manifestations显示文摘Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)is a bacterium that infects more than a half of world’s population.Although it is mainly related to the development of gastroduodenal diseases,several studies have shown that such infection may also influence the development and severity of various extragastric diseases.According to the current evidence,whereas this bacterium is a risk factor for some of these manifestations,it might play a protective role in other pathological conditions.In that context,when considered the gastrointestinal tract,H.pylori positivity have been related to Inflammatory Bowel Disease,Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease,Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease,Hepatic Carcinoma,Cholelithiasis,and Cholecystitis.Moreover,lower serum levels of iron and vitamin B12 have been found in patients with H.pylori infection,leading to the emergence of anemias in a portion of them.With regards to neurological manifestations,a growing number of studies have associated that bacterium with multiple sclerosis,Alzheimer’s disease,Parkinson’s disease,and Guillain-Barrésyndrome.Interestingly,the risk of developing cardiovascular disorders,such as atherosclerosis,is also influenced by the infection.Besides that,the H.pylori-associated inflammation may also lead to increased insulin resistance,leading to a higher risk of diabetes mellitus among infected individuals.Finally,the occurrence of dermatological and ophthalmic disorders have also been related to that microorganism.In this sense,this minireview aims to gather the main studies associating H.pylori infection with extragastric conditions,and also to explore the main mechanisms that may explain the role of H.pylori in those diseases. | Maria Luisa Cordeiro Santos Breno Bittencourt de Brito Filipe Antonio França da Silva Mariana Miranda Sampaio Hanna Santos Marques Natalia Oliveira e Silva Dulciene Maria de Magalhaes Queiroz Fabricio Freire de Melo | 2020 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2020,26,28: | 34 |
| 3 | Risk factors associated with the development of ischemic colitis显示文摘AIM:To ascertain the role of cardiovascular risk factors,cardiovascular diseases,standard treatments and other diseases in the development of ischemic colitis(IC).METHODS:A retrospective,case-control study was designed,using matched data and covering 161 incident cases of IC who required admission to our hospital from 1998 through 2003.IC was diagnosed on the basis of endoscopic findings and diagnostic or compatible his-tology.Controls were randomly chosen from a cohort of patients who were admitted in the same period and required a colonoscopy,excluding those with diagnosis of colitis.Cases were matched with controls(ratio 1:2),by age and sex.A conditional logistic regression was performed.RESULTS:A total of 483 patients(161 cases,322 con-trols)were included;mean age 75.67±10.03 years,55.9%women.The principal indications for colonos-copy in the control group were lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage(35.4%),anemia(33.9%),abdominal pain(19.9%)and diarrhea(9.6%).The endoscopic findings in this group were hemorrhoids(25.5%),diverticular disease(30.4%),polyps(19.9%)and colorectal cancer(10.2%).The following variables were associated with IC in the univariate analysis:arterial hypertension(P= 0.033);dyslipidemia(P<0.001);diabetes mellitus(P =0.025);peripheral arterial disease(P=0.004);heart failure(P=0.026);treatment with hypotensive drugs(P=0.023);angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors;(P=0.018);calcium channel antagonists(P=0.028);and acetylsalicylic acid(ASA)(P<0.001).Finally,the following variables were independently associated with the development of IC:diabetes mellitus[odds ratio(OR)1.76,95%confidence interval(CI):1.001-3.077,P=0.046];dyslipidemia(OR 2.12,95%CI:1.26-3.57,P=0.004);heart failure(OR 3.17,95%CI:1.31-7.68,P=0.01);peripheral arterial disease(OR 4.1,95%CI:1.32-12.72,P=0.015);treatment with digoxin(digitalis)(OR 0.27,95%CI:0.084-0.857,P=0.026);and ASA(OR 1.97,95%CI:1.16-3.36,P=0.012).CONCLUSION:The development of an episode of IC was independently associated with diabetes,dyslipid-emia,presence of heart failure,peripheral arterial dis-ease and treatment with digoxin or ASA. | Joaquín Cubiella Fernández Luisa Núez Calvo Elvira González Vázquez Maria Jesús García García Maria Teresa Alves Pérez Isabel Martínez Silva Javier Fernández Seara | 2010 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,36: | 27 |
| 4 | Feasibility and safety of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell transplantation in patients with advanced chronic liver disease显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the safety and feasibility of bone marrow cell (BMC) transplantation in patients with chronic liver disease on the waiting list for liver transplantation. METHODS: Ten patients (eight males) with chronic liver disease were enrolled to receive infusion of autologous bone marrow-derived cells. Seven patients were classified as Child-Pugh B and three as Child-Pugh C. Baseline assessment included complete clinical and laboratory evaluation and abdominal MRI. Approximately 50 ml of bone marrow aspirate was prepared by centrifugation in a ficoll-hypaque gradient. At least of 100 millions of mononuclear-enriched BMCs were infused into the hepatic artery using the routine technique for arterial chemoembolization for liver tumors. Patients were followed up for adverse events up to 4 mo. RESULTS: The median age of the patients was 52 years (range 24-70 years). All patients were discharged 48 h after BMC infusion. Two patients complained ofmild pain at the bone marrow needle puncture site. No other complications or specific side effects related to the procedure were observed. Bilirubin levels were lower at 1 (2.19 ± 0.9) and 4 mo (2.10 ± 1.0) after cell transplantation that baseline levels (2.78 ± 1.2). Albumin levels 4 mo after BMC infusion (3.73 ± 0.5) were higher than baseline levels (3.47 ± 0.5). International normalized ratio (INR) decreased from 1.48 (SD = 0.23) to 1.43 (SD = 0.23) one month after cell transplantation. CONCLUSION: BMC infusion into hepatic artery of patients with advanced chronic liver disease is safe and feasible. In addition, a decrease in mean serum bilirubin and INR levels and an increase in albumin levels are observed. Our data warrant further studies in order to evaluate the effect of BMC transplantation in patients with advanced chronic liver disease. | Andre Castro lyra Milena Botelho Pereira Soares luiz Flavio Maia da Silva Marcos Fraga Fortes André Goyanna Pinheiro Silva Augusto César de Andrade Mota Sheilla A Oliveira Eduardo lorens Braga Wilson Andrade de Carvalho Bernd Genser Ricardo Ribeiro dos Santos luiz Guilherme Costa lyra | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,7: | 21 |

| 6 | Cytokines,cytokine gene polymorphisms and Helicobacter pylori infection:Friend or foe?显示文摘Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)is a flagellated,spiralshaped,microaerophilic Gram-negative bacillus that colonises the gastric mucosa of more than 50%of the human population.Infection is a risk factor for gastritis,ulcer disease and stomach cancer.Immunity against H.pylori is mainly related to Th1/Th17 skewing,and the activation of regulatory T cells is the main strategy used to limit inflammatory responses,which can result in the pathogen persistence and can lead to chronic gastrointestinal diseases,including cancer.Furthermore,host genetic factors that affect cytokines may determine differences in the susceptibility to many diseases.In this review,we present the cytokine profiles and the main cytokine gene polymorphisms associated with resistance/susceptibility to H.pylori and discuss how such polymorphisms may influence infection/disease outcomes. | Camila A Figueiredo Cintia Rodrigues Marques Ryan dos Santos Costa Hugo Bernardino F da Silva Neuza M Alcantara-Neves | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,18: | 11 |

| 8 | GSTT1,GSTM1 and CYP2E1 genetic polymorphisms in gastric cancer and chronic gastritis in a Brazilian population显示文摘MIM:To test the hypothesis that,in the Southeastern Brazilian population,the GSTT1,GSTM1 and CYP2E1 polymorphisms and putative risk factors are associated with an increased risk for gastric cancer.METHODS:We conducted a study on 100 cases of gastric cancer(GC),100 cases of chronic gastritis(CG),and 150 controls(C).Deletion of the GSTT1 and GSTM1 genes was assessed by multiplex PCR.CYP2E1/PsА genotyping was performed using a PCR-RFLP assay.RESULTS:No relationship between GSTT1/GSTM1 deletion and the c1/c2 genotype of CYP2E1 was observed among the three groups.However,a significant difference between CG and C was observde,due to a greater number of GSTT1/GSTM1 positive genotypes in the CG group.The GSTT1 null genotype occurred more frequently in Negroid subjicts,and the GSTM1 null genotype was observed mainly in individuals with chronic gastritis infected with H pylori.CONCLUSION:Our findings indecate that there is no obvious relationship between the GSTT1,GSTM1 and CYP2E1 polymorphisms and gastric cancer. | Jucimara Colombo Ana Elizabete Silva Andréa Regina Baptista Rossit Alaor Caetano Aldenis Albaneze Borim Durval Wohnrath | 2004 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2004,10,9: | 11 |
| 9 | Role of polymorphisms in genes that encode cytokines and Helicobacter pylori virulence factors in gastric carcinogenesis显示文摘The Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection is a determinant factor in gastric cancer(GC) development. However, the infection outcomes are variable and depend on both host and bacterial characteristics. Some host cytokines such as interleukin(IL)-1β, IL-1 Ra, IL-8, IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor-α play important roles in the host immune system response to the pathogen, in the development of gastric mucosal lesions and in cell malignant transformation. Therefore, these host factors are crucial in neoplastic processes. Certain polymorphisms in genes that encode these cytokines have been associated with an increased risk of GC. On the other hand, various virulence factors found in distinct H. pylori bacterial strains, including cytotoxinassociated antigen A, vacuolating cytotoxin, duodenal ulcer promoting gene A protein, outer inflammatory protein and blood group antigen binding adhesin, have been associated with the pathogenesis of different gastric diseases. The virulent factors mentioned above allow the successful infection by the bacterium and play crucial roles in gastric mucosa lesions, including malignant transformation. Moreover, the role of host polymorphisms and bacterial virulence factors in gastric carcinogenesis seems to vary among different countries and populations. The identification of host and bacterium factors that are associated with an increased risk of GC development may be useful in determining the prognosis of infection in patients, what could help in clinical decision-making and in providing of an optimized clinical approach. | Breno Bittencourt de Brito Filipe Ant?nio Fran?a da Silva Fabrício Freire de Melo | 2018 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2018,9,5: | 9 |
| 10 | 未固结流砂地层采油过程中出砂情况模拟实验显示文摘为了研究未固结流砂储集层在采油过程中的出砂情况和影响出砂的主要因素,进行了不同条件下的出砂过程模拟实验。使用水洗白砂、黏土(高岭土)和蒸馏水制成未固结流砂地层模型,利用新开发的出砂模拟装置进行了模拟实验,并分析了作用于地层的拖曳力和地层胶结特征对出砂的影响。研究表明,随着拖曳力的增加,出砂速度和产油速度都加快;随着胶结物含量的增加,出砂量和产油量明显降低,甚至在胶结物含量较高的情况下出砂量几乎为零。地层压力大的油藏在开采期间由于产生了较大的拖曳力更可能出砂,而拖曳力和有效地层应力共同影响油藏的总体产油量。可以根据地层黏土含量估计出砂情况,从而通过采取适当的防砂措施尽可能减少出砂量。某些情况下油藏比气藏更容易出砂。 | PERERA M S A RANJITH P G RATHNAWEERA T D DE SILVA G P D LIU T | 2017 | 石油勘探与开发2017,44,5: | 8 |
| 11 | Different risk factors influence peptic ulcer disease development in a Brazilian population显示文摘AIM: To investigate age, sex, histopathology and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) status, as risk factors for gastroduodenal disease outcome in Brazilian dyspeptic patients.tients submitted to upper gastroscopy at Hospital das Clinicas of Marilia, antral biopsy specimens were obtained and subjected to histopathology and H. pylori diagnosis. All patients presenting chronic gastritis (CG) and peptic ulcer (PU) disease localized in the stomach, gastric ulcer (GU) and/or duodenal ulcer (DU) were included in the study. Gastric biopsies (n = 668) positive for H. pylori by rapid urease test were investigated for vacuolating cytotoxin A (vacA ) medium (m) region mosaicism by polymerase chain reaction. Logistic regression analysis was performed to verify the association of age, sex, histopathologic alterations, H. pylori diagnosis and vacA m region mosaicism with the incidence of DU, GU and CG in patients. RESULTS: Of 1466 patients submitted to endoscopy, 1060 (72.3%) presented CG [male/female = 506/554; mean age (year) ± SD = 51.2 ± 17.81], 88 (6.0%) presented DU [male/female = 54/34; mean age (year) ± SD = 51.4 ± 17.14], and 75 (5.1%) presented GU [male/female = 54/21; mean age (year) ± SD = 51.3 ± 17.12] and were included in the comparative analysis. Sex and age showed no detectable effect on CG incidence (overall c 2 = 2.1, P = 0.3423). Sex [Odds ratios (OR) = 1.8631, P = 0.0058] but not age (OR = 0.9929, P = 0.2699) was associated with DU and both parameters had a highly significant effect on GU (overall c 2 = 30.5, P < 0.0001). The histopathological results showed a significant contribution of ageing for both atrophy (OR = 1.0297, P < 0.0001) and intestinal metaplasia (OR = 1.0520, P < 0.0001). Presence of H. pylori was significantly associated with decreasing age (OR = 0.9827, P < 0.0001) and with the incidence of DU (OR = 3.6077, P < 0.0001). The prevalence of m1 in DU was statistically significant (OR = 2.3563, P = 0.0018) but not in CG (OR = 2.678, P = 0.0863) and GU (OR = 1.520, P = 0.2863). CONCLUSION: In our population, male gender was a risk factor for PU; ageing for GU, atrophy and metapla-sia; and H. pylori of vacA m1 genotype for DU. | Rodrigo Buzinaro Suzuki Rodrigo Faria Cola Larissa Tranquilino Bardela Cola Camila Garcia Ferrari Fred Ellinger Altino Luiz Therezo Luis Carlos da Silva André Eterovic Márcia Aparecida Sperana | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,38: | 8 |

| 14 | Fluoroquinolones for the treatment of latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in liver transplantation显示文摘Solid organ transplantation(SOT)is the best treatment option for end-stage organ disease.Newer immunosuppressive agents have reduced the incidence of graft rejection but have increased the risk of infection,particularly due to the reactivation of latent infections due to opportunistic agents such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis.Active tuberculosis(TB)after SOT is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality.Most cases of posttransplant TB are secondary to reactivation of latent tuberculosis infection(LTBI)due to the effects of long-term immunosuppressive therapy.Risk minimization strategies have been developed to diagnose LTBI and initiate treatment prior to transplantation.Isoniazid with vitamin B6 supplementation is the treatment of choice.However,liver transplantation(LT)candidates and recipients have an increased risk of isoniazid-induced liver toxicity,leading to lower treatment completion rates than in other SOT populations.Fluoroquinolones(FQs)exhibit good in vitro antimycobacterial activity and a lower risk of drug-induced liver injury than isoniazid.In the present review,we highlight the disease burden posed by posttransplant TB and summarize the emerging clinical evidence supporting the use of FQs for the treatment of LTBI in LT recipients and candidates. | Jose Tiago Silva Rafael San-Juan Mario Fernández-Ruiz José María Aguado | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,26: | 5 |
| 15 | Relationship between Th17 immune response and cancer显示文摘Cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide and epidemiological projections predict growing cancer mortality rates in the next decades.Cancer has a close relationship with the immune system and,although Th17 cells are known to play roles in the immune response against microorganisms and in autoimmunity,studies have emphasized their roles in cancer pathogenesis.The Th17 immune response profile is involved in several types of cancer including urogenital,respiratory,gastrointestinal,and skin cancers.This type of immune response exerts pro and antitumor functions through several mechanisms,depending on the context of each tumor,including the protumor angiogenesis and exhaustion of T cells and the antitumor recruitment of T cells and neutrophils to the tumor microenvironment.Among other factors,the paradoxical behavior of Th17 cells in this setting has been attributed to its plasticity potential,which makes possible their conversion into other types of T cells such as Th17/Treg and Th17/Th1 cells.Interleukin(IL)-17 stands out among Th17-related cytokines since it modulates pathways and interacts with other cell profiles in the tumor microenvironment,which allow Th17 cells to prevail in tumors.Moreover,the IL-17 is able to mediate pro and antitumor processes that influence the development and progression of various cancers,being associated with variable clinical outcomes.The understanding of the relationship between the Th17 immune response and cancer as well as the singularities of carcinogenic processes in each type of tumor is crucial for the identification of new therapeutic targets. | Hanna Santos Marques Breno Bittencourt de Brito Filipe Antônio França da Silva Maria Luísa Cordeiro Santos Júlio César Braga de Souza Thiago Macêdo Lopes Correia Luana Weber Lopes Nayara Silva de Macêdo Neres Rafael Santos Dantas Miranda Dórea Anna Carolina Saúde Dantas Lorena Lôbo Brito Morbeck Iasmin Souza Lima Amanda Alves de Almeida Maiara Raulina de Jesus Dias Fabrício Freire de Melo | 2021 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2021,12,10: | 5 |
| 16 | Clinical characteristics and outcome of hepatocellular carcinoma in alcohol related and cryptogenic cirrhosis: a prospective study显示文摘BACKGROUND: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) is becoming a leading cause of chronic liver disease. Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is one of its complications. Although the pathophysiology is unclear, it is reasonable to expect that cryptogenic cirrhosis related HCC(cryptogenic HCC) behaves differently to other types of HCC. This study prospectively compared patients with cryptogenic HCC and those with HCC related to alcoholic cirrhosis. METHODS: A total of 150 consecutive patients with HCC(89 cryptogenic HCC and 61 alcohol related HCC) referred to our unit over a 23-month period were studied. Their demographic data, liver function, tumor characteristics and outcomes were compared.RESULTS: Alcohol related HCC was seen only in males. Compared with cryptogenic HCC, alcohol related HCC had significantly higher aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase(AST/ALT) ratio(1.7 vs 1.4, P=0.002), model for endstage liver disease score(13 vs 11, P=0.018) and Child's score(7 vs 6, P=0.037). No significant difference was seen in platelet counts, serum sodium and AST to platelet ratio index. Single nodular tumors were more common in cryptogenic HCC,while diffuse type tumors and macroscopic vascular invasion were common in alcohol related HCC. In patients who could not be offered any treatment because of advanced tumors or poor liver function, alcohol related HCC had a significantly lower median survival(5.3 months) compared with cryptogenic HCC(9.3 months, P=0.034).CONCLUSIONS: Compared with cryptogenic HCC, alcohol related HCC had worse liver function and aggressive tumor morphology at presentation, and a higher proportion was untreatable. In patients who could not be treated, median survival was lower in patients with alcohol related HCC than in those with cryptogenic HCC. | Rohan C Siriwardana Maduni A Niriella Anuradha S Dassanayake Chandika Liyanage Bhagya Gunathilaka Subani Jayathunge Hithanadura J de Silva | 2015 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2015,14,4: | 5 |

| 18 | High prevalence of vitamin A deficiency in Crohn's disease patients according to serum retinol levels and the relative dose-response test显示文摘AIM:To assess the vitamin A status of patients with Crohn's disease(CD) by evaluating serum retinol levels and the relative dose response(RDR) test(liver retinol stores).METHODS:Vitamin A nutritional status was measured by serum retinol obtained by high performance liquid chromatography and the RDR test for evaluation of the hepatic stores.Body composition was performed by densitometry by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.Vitamin A dietary intake was assessed from a semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire.RESULTS:This study included 38 CD patients and 33 controls.Low serum retinol concentrations were detected in 29% of CD patients vs 15% in controls(P < 0.005).The RDR test was positive in 37% of CD patients vs 12% in controls,which indicated inadequate hepatic vitamin A stores(P < 0.005).Individuals with hypovitaminosis A had lower BMI and body fat compared with those without this deficiency.There was no association between vitamin A deficiency and its dietary intake,ileal location,presence of disease activity and prior bowel resections.CONCLUSION:Patients with CD have higher prevalence of vitamin A deficiency,as assessed by two independent methods. | Márcia Soares-Mota Tianny A Silva Luanda M Gomes Marco AS Pinto Laura MC Mendon?a Maria Lúcia F Farias Tiago Nunes Andrea Ramalho Cyrla Zaltman | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,5: | 4 |
| 19 | Nephrotoxicity in cancer treatment:An overview显示文摘Anticancer drug nephrotoxicity is an important and increasing adverse drug event that limits the efficacy of cancer treatment.The kidney is an important elimination pathway for many antineoplastic drugs and their metabolites,which occurs by glomerular filtration and tubular secretion.Chemotherapeutic agents,both conventional cytotoxic agents and molecularly targeted agents,can affect any segment of the nephron including its microvasculature,leading to many clinical manifestations such as proteinuria,hypertension,electrolyte disturbances,glomerulopathy,acute and chronic interstitial nephritis,acute kidney injury and at times chronic kidney disease.The clinician should be alert to recognize several factors that may maximize renal dysfunction and contribute to the increased incidence of nephrotoxicity associated with these drugs,such as intravascular volume depletion,the associated use of nonchemotherapeutic nephrotoxic drugs(analgesics,antibiotics,proton pump inhibitors,and bonetargeted therapies),radiographic ionic contrast media or radiation therapy,urinary tract obstruction,and intrinsic renal disease.Identification of patients at higher risk for nephrotoxicity may allow the prevention or at least reduction in the development and severity of this adverse effect.Therefore,the aim of this brief review is to provide currently available evidences on oncologic drug-related nephrotoxicity. | Maria Luísa Cordeiro Santos Breno Bittencourt de Brito Filipe Antonio FranÇa da Silva Anelise Costa dos Santos Botelho Fabrício Freire de Melo | 2020 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2020,11,4: | 4 |
| 20 | Chronic myeloid leukemia-from the Philadelphia chromosome to specific target drugs:A literature review显示文摘Chronic myeloid leukemia(CML)is a myeloproliferative neoplasm and was the first neoplastic disease associated with a well-defined genotypic anomaly―the presence of the Philadelphia chromosome.The advances in cytogenetic and molecular assays are of great importance to the diagnosis,prognosis,treatment,and monitoring of CML.The discovery of the breakpoint cluster region(BCR)-Abelson murine leukemia(ABL)1 fusion oncogene has revolutionized the treatment of CML patients by allowing the development of targeted drugs that inhibit the tyrosine kinase activity of the BCR-ABL oncoprotein.Tyrosine kinase inhibitors(known as TKIs)are the standard therapy for CML and greatly increase the survival rates,despite adverse effects and the odds of residual disease after discontinuation of treatment.As therapeutic alternatives,the subsequent TKIs lead to faster and deeper molecular remissions;however,with the emergence of resistance to these drugs,immunotherapy appears as an alternative,which may have a cure potential in these patients.Against this background,this article aims at providing an overview on CML clinical management and a summary on the main targeted drugs available in that context. | Mariana Miranda Sampaio Maria Luísa Cordeiro Santos Hanna Santos Marques Vinícius Lima de Souza Gonçalves Glauber Rocha Lima Araújo Luana Weber Lopes Jonathan Santos Apolonio Camilo Santana Silva Luana Kauany de SáSantos Beatriz Rocha Cuzzuol Quézia Estéfani Silva Guimarães Mariana Novaes Santos Breno Bittencourt de Brito Filipe Antônio França da Silva Márcio Vasconcelos Oliveira Cláudio Lima Souza Fabrício Freire de Melo | 2021 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2021,12,2: | 3 |
