Summary:
The leukaemias are a heterogeneous group of blood cancers, Acute leukaemia (AL) is caused
by malignant proliferation of blood cells arrested at an immature stage of development,
They are very aggressive diseases that run a rapidly fatal course if not promptly
diagnosed and appropriately treated. Misdiagnosis is very common with delay in diagnosis
and prompt treatment being the causes of high morbidity and mortality in acute
leukaemias.
Although with the continuous improvement of clinical and laboratory diagnosis and
treatment methods, the prognosis of AML has been significantly improved, but there are
still about 70% of patients who cannot survive more than 5 years after diagnosis The
activity of miRNAs in tumors is regulated by the same alterations affecting
protein-coding genes, such as chromosomal rearrangements, genomic amplifications or
deletions or mutations, abnormal transcriptional control, dysregulation of epigenetic
changes and defects in the biogenesis machinery A typical chromosomal rearrangement is a
chromosomal translocation, especially in hematological malignancies, in which it promotes
tumor development and progression by the promoter exchange or by the creation of chimeric
genes translated as fusion proteins. In Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) patients with
myeloid/lymphoid leukemia gene (or mixed-lineage leukemia, MLL) rearrangement, by
large-scale genome-wide microarray analysis, it was demonstrated that among 48 selected
miRNAs, 47 of them are increased
