The pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) is complex and depends on the interaction between aberrant hematopoietic cells and their microenvironment, probably including aberrations in cytokines and their signaling pathways. To evaluate interleukin-8 (IL-8) plasma levels and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) in patients with MDS and to test possible correlation between IL-8 and NFKb, a total of 45 individu...
The ageing process is associated with gradual decline in respiratory system performance. Anemia is highly prevalent among older adults and usually associated with adverse outcomes. Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of hematologic malignancies with increasing incidence with age and characterized by anemia and other cytopenias. The main objectives of this study were to evaluate respiratory...
The association between Xeroderma Pigmentosum DNA repair genes ( XPA rs1800975, XPC rs2228000, XPD rs1799793 and XPF rs1800067) polymorphisms and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) have not been reported. To assess the functional role between these polymorphisms and MDS, we evaluated 189 sam- ples stratified in two groups: 95 bone marrow samples from MDS patients and 94 from healthy elderly volunteers used as contr...
Objective: A relation between transfusional IOL (iron overload), HFE status and oxidative damage was evaluated. Design, setting and participants: An observational cross-sectional study involving 87 healthy individuals and 78 patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) with and without IOL, seen at University Hospital of the Federal University of Ceará, Brazil, between May 2010 and September 2011. Methods: IOL...
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are group of stem cell disorders characterised by peripheral cytopaenias and a variable risk of progression to acute myeloid leukaemia. Most patients have anaemia and many develop transfusion dependence and iron overload (IOL), considered to be a negative independent prognostic factor associated with a higher risk of leukemic transformation and shorter survival.
