Novel translocations that disrupt the platelet‐derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRB) gene in BCR–ABL‐negative chronic myeloproliferative disorders
1 Jan 2003
Abstract excerpt
The BCR-ABL-negative chronic myeloproliferative disorders (CMPD) and myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative diseases (MDS/MPD) are a spectrum of related conditions for which the molecular pathogenesis is poorly understood. Translocations that disrupt and constitutively activate the platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta(PDGFRB) gene at chromosome band 5q33 have been described in some patients, the most common...
