Violet is currently in the emergency room being treated, and will be undergoing chemotherapy shortly after. Get well and best wishes Violet. You can send a message to Violet here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=188100 Edit: Sorry, translation error. I didn't realize that there were more than 1 type of acute leukemia. It should be "Acute leukemia", for now. Source

My thoughts exactly... this is horrible horrible news. I am sending all my best thoughts and wishes in his direction, really hope he gets through this. I feel like we should somehow organize a big project to send get-well wishes to him, sorta like the Jaedong birthday card a few weeks ago. But, I don't know anyone in Korea who could make this happen. Hopefully it can get done somehow. | ||

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), is a form of leukemia, or cancer of the white blood cells characterized by excess lymphoblasts. Malignant, immature white blood cells continuously multiply and are overproduced in the bone marrow. ALL causes damage and death by crowding out normal cells in the bone marrow, and by spreading (infiltrating) to other organs. ALL is most common in childhood with a peak incidence at 2–5 years of age, and another peak in old age. The overall cure rate in children is about 80%, and about 45%-60% of adults have long-term disease-free survival.[1] Acute refers to the relatively short time course of the disease (being fatal in as little as a few weeks if left untreated) to differentiate it from the very different disease of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia which has a potential time course of many years. It is interchangeably referred to as Lymphocytic or Lymphoblastic. This refers to the cells that are involved, which if they were normal would be referred to as lymphocytes but are seen in this disease in a relatively immature (also termed 'blast') state. From Wikipedia. What counts is that I guess he got treatment for this early, and there's a fairly decent chance of it being cured. C'mon Violet, you've beat tougher odds before (like 3-killing OZ), you'll be okay! I'd be happy to contribute some words to whatever project that may come up to support him! | ||

This is going to be a lifelong worry for Violet, and depending on the type of acute leukemia, and where the malignant white blood cells exist (i.e. the central nervous system) the prognosis can be quite poor. He's looking at a lot of chemotherapy, anti-remission drugs that have all sorts of side effects, and possibly a bone marrow or hematopoietic (relating to the formation of blood cells) stem cell transplant. To see exactly what's happening, here's some pictures: Here's a normal looking blood stain with a noncancerous lymphocyte in the dead center: ![[image loading]](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/17/Lymphocyte2.jpg) This is what Violet's blood stain may look like: ![[image loading]](http://www.mog-eg.com/photos/ALL/ALL%201.jpg) The problem is that the amount of cancerous lymphocytes present in the blood interfere with the normal processes of noncancerous white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. Normally lymphocytes account for somewhere around 30% of all white blood cell types. In the last picture, there is one neutrophil in the bottom right (and maybe one near the center, but it might be a much less common eosinophil), which are the most common WBCs, around 60%. In other words, having way more lymphocytes than neutrophils is obviously a very bad thing. I've already dealt with my best friend having leukemia, and I can tell you it's an ongoing struggle. Hopefully hopefully hopefully, everything will be all right for one of my very favorite protosses, and a genuinely nice person. | ||

Well, from the wikipedia that was quoted it was 80% for children. 45%-60% for adults. Sadly, Violet would be counted in the latter category. | ||

It's pretty amazing that he managed to squeeze 6-2 record in January. Leukemia must have started couple of weeks if not months before it got diagnosed and it surely had negative impact on his play. Now I wonder if Violet's relatively poor 2010 results were because of this illness. Anyway, best wishes for him! Lance-Armstrong-like comeback plz! | ||

I feel like we should somehow organize a big project to send get-well wishes to him, sorta like the Jaedong birthday card a few weeks ago. But, I don't know anyone in Korea who could make this happen. Hopefully it can get done somehow. This would be really awesome if we were to create some kind of get well thread full of Violet Cheerful or something like that and maybe send the link? | ||

http://uscnews.usc.edu/health/scientists_discover_a_protein_to_fight_leukemia.html Scientists at the Children’s Center for Cancer and Blood Diseases and The Saban Research Institute of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles have announced a breakthrough in understanding how the body fights leukemia. The scientists have identified a protein called CD19-ligand (CD19-L) located on the surface of certain white blood cells that facilitates the recognition and destruction of leukemia cells by the immune system. This work represents the first report of a bioengineered version of CD19-L, a recombinant human biotherapeutic agent targeting CD19-positive leukemic stem cells. B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer occurring in children and adolescents. Despite having received intensive chemotherapy, some patients have recurring disease. For these individuals, the prospect of long-term survival is poor. “We need new anti-leukemia therapies capable of killing chemotherapy-resistant leukemia cells in patients with relapsed ALL,” said Fatih Uckun, first author on the paper that has been published in the British Journal of Haematology. “These are the cells that are the most difficult to treat. The challenge is to kill these cells while leaving healthy cells intact.” Uckun is professor of pediatrics at the Keck School of Medicine of USC and a member of the Developmental Therapeutics Program at the Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center. Lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell involved in immune function, are categorized as either B-cells or T-cells. CD19-L, the newly discovered element, is expressed on the surface of T-lymphocytes and allows them to selectively bind to the CD19 receptor on the surface of B-lineage leukemia cells, and most importantly on leukemic stem cells responsible for the survival and expansion of the leukemia cell population. Once the CD19-L binds to leukemia cells, cell death occurs. Although CD19 is abundantly expressed on leukemia cells from B-lineage ALL patients, it is absent on red cells, T-cells and normal bone marrow stem cells, making it specific, and therefore, a good therapeutic target. Uckun and colleagues have bioengineered and prepared a highly purified liquid formulation of the human CD19-L protein. This recombinant protein not only shows selective binding to leukemia cells but also causes their rapid destruction within 24 hours. CD19-L killed even those leukemia cells that were highly resistant to both standard chemotherapy drugs, as well as radiation. CD19-L is the first CD19-specific recombinant human protein with potent anti-leukemic activity against B-lineage ALL, the most common form of childhood cancer and the second most common form of acute leukemia in adults. The identification of CD19-L may lead to therapeutic innovation for childhood leukemia by allowing a selective destruction of leukemic stem cells. According to Uckun, the next step will be to carefully evaluate this new agent for clinical potential against leukemia and to confirm in preclinical studies that leukemic cell destruction can be achieved at non-toxic dose levels. “The CD19-ligand offers a previously unrecognized defense system against leukemia and opens a new range of therapeutic opportunities for the treatment of leukemia,” said Stuart Siegel, director of the Center for Cancer and Blood Diseases at Children's Hospital Los Angeles. hopefully it can be used to help cure violet! | ||

It's a type of cancer that affects precursory Lymphocytes that differentiate into different types of Lymphocytes, also known as Lymphoblasts. If you looked at a slide of it you'd basically see immense amounts of malformed Lymphoblasts. Survival rate/cure is at about ~50-40%. | ||
