Adenosine diphosphate ribosyl transferase in marrow cells of patients with acute myeloid leukemia is related to differentiation and drug sensitivity. 1985

R W Pero, and T Olofsson, and A Gustavsson, and E Kjellén

The levels of adenosine diphosphate ribosyl transferase (ADPRT) have been quantified in Ficoll-Isopaque isolated marrow cells from 36 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The in vitro growth pattern in agar at diagnosis was also determined, and in 16 patients the in vitro drug sensitivity of the clonogenic cells (CFU-GM) to cytosine arabinoside and daunorubicin was measured. The ADPRT activities of the various marrow cell preparations correlated to the morphological diagnoses, in vitro growth patterns, in vitro drug sensitivities to cytosine arabinoside, and to the prognoses of the AML patients. Hence, ADPRT may be a useful marker for the pathophysiology associated to AML.

D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.

D003561 Cytarabine A pyrimidine nucleoside analog that is used mainly in the treatment of leukemia, especially acute non-lymphoblastic leukemia. Cytarabine is an antimetabolite antineoplastic agent that inhibits the synthesis of DNA. Its actions are specific for the S phase of the cell cycle. It also has antiviral and immunosuppressant properties.
