31 Oct 2007
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The mechanism of glucocorticoid -induced apoptosis is not fully understood and early predictive assays based on apoptotic markers for clinical outcome in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are scarce. The aim of this study was to characterize the involvement of Bcl-2 family members and caspase activation in dexamethasone(Dex)-induced apoptosis in ALL. DESIGN AND METHODS: Primary...
