[Molecular detection of the BCR-ABL gen by RT-PCR in Costa Rican children with leukemia].

Abstract excerpt

Many leukemias could have chromosomic translocations and according to the transcripts formed by the genes involved, the patients present an specific phenotype of the leukemia. We show the first results of the investigation of the gen BCR-ABL using RT-PCR, in order to look for the t(9;22)(q34;q11) in pediatric leukemic children.
