The contribution of infused bone marrow cells to long-term haemopoietic recovery in patients undergoing autologous bone marrow transplantation is unknown. Such information would help to clarify the role of this procedure in cancer therapy and would aid in the development of strategies to reduce the risk of subsequent aplasia. By transferring a neomycin resistance marker gene into the marrow cells of 20 patients before transplantation, we were able to trace the pattern of haemopoietic reconstitution postinfusion. The marker gene was present and expressed in all haemopoietic lineages in vivo in 15 of 18 evaluable patients at 1 month post-transplantation, in 8 of 9 patients at 6 months, and in 5 of 5 at 1 year. The marker has remained detectable for up to 18 months--the duration of our study. Our findings indicate that harvested bone marrow consistently contributes to long-term multilineage recovery of haemopoiesis after autologous marrow transplantation in cancer patients. These results provide a rationale for the continued exploration of more ablative preparative regimens with single or sequential autologous marrow transplants.

D007951 Leukemia, Myeloid Form of leukemia characterized by an uncontrolled proliferation of the myeloid lineage and their precursors (MYELOID PROGENITOR CELLS) in the bone marrow and other sites.

D009447 Neuroblastoma A common neoplasm of early childhood arising from neural crest cells in the sympathetic nervous system, and characterized by diverse clinical behavior, ranging from spontaneous remission to rapid metastatic progression and death. This tumor is the most common intraabdominal malignancy of childhood, but it may also arise from thorax, neck, or rarely occur in the central nervous system. Histologic features include uniform round cells with hyperchromatic nuclei arranged in nests and separated by fibrovascular septa. Neuroblastomas may be associated with the opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome. (From DeVita et al., Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology, 5th ed, pp2099-2101; Curr Opin Oncol 1998 Jan;10(1):43-51) Neuroblastomas
D002648 Child A person 6 to 12 years of age. An individual 2 to 5 years old is CHILD, PRESCHOOL. Children
D002675 Child, Preschool A child between the ages of 2 and 5. Children, Preschool,Preschool Child,Preschool Children
D005784 Gene Amplification A selective increase in the number of copies of a gene coding for a specific protein without a proportional increase in other genes. It occurs naturally via the excision of a copy of the repeating sequence from the chromosome and its extrachromosomal replication in a plasmid, or via the production of an RNA transcript of the entire repeating sequence of ribosomal RNA followed by the reverse transcription of the molecule to produce an additional copy of the original DNA sequence. Laboratory techniques have been introduced for inducing disproportional replication by unequal crossing over, uptake of DNA from lysed cells, or generation of extrachromosomal sequences from rolling circle replication. Amplification, Gene
