Lack of the adhesion molecules P-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 accelerate the development of BCR/ABL-induced chronic myeloid leukemia-like myeloproliferative disease in mice.

Abstract excerpt

In vitro studies show that BCR/ABL-expressing hematopoietic cells exhibit altered adhesion properties. No in vivo studies show whether the altered adhesion properties affect BCR/ABL leukemogenesis. Using mice with homozygous inactivation of genes encoding the 2 adhesion molecules P-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM1), we show that the mutant mice develop BCR/ABL-induced chronic myeloid leukemia...
