quinacrine and Leukemia, Myeloid

quinacrine has been researched along with Leukemia, Myeloid in 23 studies

Quinacrine: An acridine derivative formerly widely used as an antimalarial but superseded by chloroquine in recent years. It has also been used as an anthelmintic and in the treatment of giardiasis and malignant effusions. It is used in cell biological experiments as an inhibitor of phospholipase A2.
quinacrine : A member of the class of acridines that is acridine substituted by a chloro group at position 6, a methoxy group at position 2 and a [5-(diethylamino)pentan-2-yl]nitrilo group at position 9.

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.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Of 16 treated patients with acute myelogenous leukemia and a normal karyotype, 11 (69 per cent) had a complete remission and a median survival of 13 months."1.26Correlation of clinical findings with quinacrine-banded chromosomes in 90 adults with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia: an eight-year study (1970-1977). ( Golomb, HM; Mintz, U; Rowley, JD; Testa, JR; Vardiman, JW, 1978)
"These chromosome abnormalities were compared to previous cytogenic analyses on the transplantable Shay chloroleukemia, in which new fluorescent banding techniques were not utilized."1.26Chromosome studies of the transplantable Shay chloroleukemia in rats. ( Alt, B, 1977)
