Abstract excerpt
We analysed, by flow cytometry, the "adhesive" phenotype of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) cells from 36 patients treated in our institution. In univariate analysis, the main prognostic factor for CR achievement was lower CXCR4 expression (p=0.03). Overall survival (OS) was negatively influenced by higher CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) (p=0.01), very late antigen-4 (VLA-4) (p=0.01), and focal adhesion kinase...
