Clinical Relevance of Differential and Expression in Myelodysplastic Syndromes.

Background/aim: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are clinically heterogeneous hematological malignancies with an increased risk of transformation to acute myeloid leukemia, emphasizing the importance of identifying new diagnostic and prognostic markers. This study sought to investigate the predictive ability of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)-dependent nuclear transcription factors RARα and PPARβ/δ gene expression in MDS patients.

Materials And Methods: Peripheral blood specimens were collected from 49 MDS patients and 15 healthy volunteers.

DNA sequence-specific ligands. XVIII. Synthesis, physico-chemical properties; genetic, virological, and biochemical studies of fluorescent dimeric bisbenzimidazoles DBPA(n).

A set of AT-specific fluorescent dimeric bisbenzimidazoles DBPA(n) with linkers of different lengths bound to DNA in the minor groove were synthesized and their genetic, virological, and biochemical studies were performed. The DBPA(n) were shown to be effective inhibitors of the histon-like protein H-NS, a regulator of the DNA transcription factor, as well as of the Aliivibrio logei Quorum Sensing regulatory system in E. coli cells.
