Journal Article
Seedhouse, C., & Russell, N. (2004). Advances in the understanding of susceptibility to treatment-related acute myeloid leukaemia. British Journal of Haematology, 137(6), 513-529. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2141.2007.06613.x

Treatment-related acute myeloid leukaemia (t-AML) is a devastating complication following exposure to the cytotoxic and genotoxic agents used to treat a primary malignancy. Whilst the incidence of t-AML is rising, it still only occurs in a minority o... Read More about Advances in the understanding of susceptibility to treatment-related acute myeloid leukaemia.

Clonal haemopoiesis may occur after conventional chemotherapy and is associated with accelerated telomere shortening and defects in the NQO1 pathway; possible mechanisms leading to an increased risk of t-AML/MDS (2004)
Journal Article
Fern, L., Pallis, M., Carter, G. I., Seedhouse, C., Russell, N., & Byrne, J. (2004). Clonal haemopoiesis may occur after conventional chemotherapy and is associated with accelerated telomere shortening and defects in the NQO1 pathway; possible mechanisms leading to an increased risk of t-AML/MDS.

The molecular pathogenesis of therapy-related acute myeloid leukaemia/myelodysplastic syndrome (t-AML/MDS) remains uncertain. However, clonal haemopoiesis may develop following stem cell transplantation and precede the development of t-AML/MDS. Moreo...

Polymorphisms in Genes Involved in Homologous Recombination Repair Interact to Increase the Risk of Developing Acute Myeloid Leukemia (2004)
Journal Article
Seedhouse, C., Faulkner, R., Ashraf, N., Das-Gupta, E., & Russell, N. (2004). Polymorphisms in Genes Involved in Homologous Recombination Repair Interact to Increase the Risk of Developing Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Clinical Cancer Research, 10(8), 2675–2680. https://doi.org/10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-03-0372

Purpose: Double-strand break repair via homologous recombination is essential in maintaining genetic integrity. RAD51 and XRCC3 are involved in the repair of DNA by this pathway, and polymorphisms have been identified in both the RAD51 (RAD51-G135C)...
