Transcription-mediated amplification and hybridisation protection assay to determine BCR-ABL transcript levels in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia.
1 Mar 2002
Abstract excerpt
Detection of BCR-ABL transcripts in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is used to confirm the diagnosis and to monitor residual disease. Quantitative techniques are required to predict response to therapy or early relapse. We have evaluated an assay in which transcription-mediated amplification (TMA) of BCR-ABL and ABL transcripts is achieved using reverse transcriptase and RNA polymerase. The products are...
