15 Jan 2006
Abstract excerpt
P2X(7) is a receptor for extracellular nucleotides expressed by different normal cell types. P2X(7) triggering may result in stimulation of cell proliferation or induction of apoptosis depending on the level of activation. P2X(7) expression and function in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia has been shown to correlate with disease severity. Here, we have asked the question of whether P2X(7) is expressed and...
