This is a human disease term; this should be annotated as disease model. Leukemia in mice and human is classified differently according to pathologists. I should further review the existing leukemia terms in the MP for appropriateness.

Cooments from ticket #266:
The term leukemia (MP:0002026) has two children terms describing myelocytic leukemiasbut none for lymphocyte-derived leukemia. Unfortunately, there are different classification schemes for these leukemia types… one scheme includes the myeloid leukemia terms presently in the MP and adds the terms Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia see : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leukemia
(note: this scheme lists the MP term “acute promyelocytic leukemia (MP:0004049) as a subtype of a more general Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) term) The NCI-thesaurus uses a similar (though slightly different) organization
On the other hand, MESH breaks down terms as Leukemia-> Lymphoid-> B-cell derived> Prolymphocytic or Chronic:
This more closely resembles the MP layout of lymphoma terms, and the WHO disease vocabulary uses a similar layout.
Perhaps the conflicting nomenclature is the reason no children terms have been added? I think at least one child term to differentiate lymphoid leukemia from myeloid leukemia would be helpful.
comments from ticket #749:
acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)
Definitions and term names from the HPO:
[Term] id: HP:0006721 name: Acute lymphatic leukemia namespace: medical_genetics alt_id: HP:0004803 alt_id: HP:0005555 def: "A form of acute leukemia characterized by excess lympoblasts." [HPO:curators] synonym: "Acute lymphoblastic leukemia" EXACT [] synonym: "Acute lymphoid leukemia" EXACT [] xref: UMLS:C0023449 xref: UMLS:C1961102 is_a: HP:0002488 ! Acute leukemia
[Term] id: HP:0005550 name: Chronic lymphatic leukemia namespace: medical_genetics alt_id: HP:0006734 alt_id: HP:0006760 def: "A chronic lymphocytic/lymphatic/lymphoblastic leukemia (CLL) is a neoplastic disease characterized by proliferation and accumulation (blood, marrow and lymphoid organs) of morphologically mature but immunologically dysfunctional lymphocytes. A CLL is always a B-cell lymphocytic leukemia as there are no reports of cases of T-cell lymphocytic leukemias." [HPO:curators] synonym: "B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia" EXACT [] synonym: "Chronic lymphocytic leukemia" EXACT [] xref: UMLS:C0023434 xref: UMLS:C1868683
I was thinking that we should just annotate these to the human disease terms:
OMIM 151400 Leukemia, Chronic Lymphocytic; CLL OMIM 613065 Leukemia, Acute Lymphoblastic; ALL
BUT, this precludes us from adding an annotation note.
BUT these terms do not describe a disease in mouse according to accepted pathology, and perhaps should not be used in mouse annotations. See Morse et al "Bethesda proposals for classification of lymphoid hematopoietic neoplasms in mice." Blood 2002; 100(1) p.246-58 PMID:12070034
I need to look into this further, see J:160846

Consider adding the term chronic myelomonocytic leukemia def from MeSH - A myelodysplastic-myeloproliferative disease characterized by monocytosis, increased monocytes in the bone marrow, variable degrees of dysplasia, but an absence of immature granulocytes in the blood. I could find 2 instances of this in MGI (searching for CMML) 1 annotated to leukemia and the other to chronic myelocytic leukemia. Based on the placement in MeSH this term should be a sibling to chronic myelocytic leukemia. In the DO the closest term I can find is myelodysplastic myeloproliferative cancer (definition: A bone marrow cancer that is located_in the bone marrow and results_in the production of too many white blood cells. The cancer possess both dysplastic and proliferative features but are not properly classified as either.) which is the parent term to juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia. Thanks, Sue
