Abstract:
There is described herein a method of prognosing or classifying a subject with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) comprising: (a) determining the expression level of at least 3 genes in a test sample from the subject selected from the group consisting of DNMT3B, ZBTB46, NYNRIN, ARHGAP22, LAPTM4B, MMRN1, DPYSL3, KIAAQ125. CDK6, CPXM1, SOCS2, SMIM24, EMP1, NGFRAP1, CD34, AKR1C3, GPR56; and (b) comparing expression of the at least 3 genes in the test sample with reference expression levels of the at least 3 genes from control samples from a cohort of patients; wherein a difference or similarity in the expression of the at least 3 genes in the test sample and the reference expression levels is used to prognose or classify the subject with AML into a low risk group or a high risk group for worse survival.

Abstract:
This invention relates to human hematopoietic stem cells. Specifically the invention relations to the identification of single human hematopoietic stem cells capable of long- term multilineage engraftment and self-renewal. The invention also relates to an early lymphoid progenitor with monocytic potential, including dendritic cell potential.

Abstract:
There is disclosed herein composition, methods and uses relating to miR-126 as a measure of engraftment potential of a population of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), as a method of purifying HSCs and in the monitoring or treatment of acute myeloid leukemia.
Abstract:
There is described herein methods of treating a hematological cancer in a patient, the method comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a sphingosine-1-phosphate pathway modulator.
Abstract:
There is described herein a method for improving or preserving hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) self-renewal during ex-vivo expansion of a population of cells comprising HSCs in an expansion medium, the method comprising culturing the population of cells in the presence of N-(4hydroxyphenyl)retinarnide (4HPR).
Abstract:
A method for determining prognosis in a subject having a hematological cancer comprising: a) determining an expression profile by measuring the gene expression levels of a set of genes selected from a leukemic stem cell (LSC) gene signature marker set or an hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) gene signature marker set, in a sample from a subject; and b) classifying the subject as having a good prognosis or a poor prognosis based on the expression profile; wherein a good prognosis predicts an increased likelihood of survival within a predetermined period after initial diagnosis and poor prognosis predicts a decreased likelihood of survival within the predetermined period after initial diagnosis.
