MedlinePlus: Your bone marrow is the spongy tissue inside some of your bones, such as your hip and thigh bones. it contains immature cells, called stem cells. the stem cells can develop into the red blood cells that carry oxygen through your body, the white blood cells that fight infections, and the platelets that help with blood clotting. if you have a myelodysplastic syndrome, the stem cells do not mature into healthy blood cells. this leaves less room for healthy cells, which can lead to infection, anemia, or easy bleeding.
myelodysplastic syndromes often do not cause early symptoms and are sometimes found during a routine blood test. if you have symptoms, they may include
shortness of breath
weakness or feeling tired
skin that is paler than usual
easy bruising or bleeding
pinpoint spots under the skin caused by bleeding
fever or frequent infections
myelodysplastic syndromes are rare. people at higher risk are over 60, have had chemotherapy or radiation therapy, or have been exposed to certain chemicals. treatment options include transfusions, drug therapy, chemotherapy, and blood or bone marrow stem cell transplants.

MalaCards: Myelodysplastic Syndrome, also known as myelodysplastic syndromes, is related to leukemia and myeloid leukemia. An important gene associated with Myelodysplastic Syndrome is MLF1 (myeloid leukemia factor 1), and among its related pathways are Hematopoietic cell lineage and Apoptosis Signaling Pathways. The compounds lipid and retinoic acid have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain, skin and liver, and related mouse phenotypes are hematopoietic system and immune system. NIH Rare Diseases: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a rare group of blood disorders characterized by abnormal development of blood cells within the bone marrow. Individuals with MDS have abnormally low blood cell levels (low blood counts). Signs and symptoms associated with MDS include dizziness, fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, bruising and bleeding, frequent infections, and headaches. In some cases, MDS may progress to bone marrow failure or an acute leukemia. The exact cause of MDS is unknown. It sometimes runs in families, but no disease-causing gene has been identified. Treatment depends on the affected individual's age, general health, and type of MDS and may include red cell and/or platelet transfusions and antibiotics.30 Wikipedia: The myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS, formerly known as preleukemia) are a diverse collection of...44 more... |
