Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Deregulation of apoptosis is one of the hallmarks of cancers. Inactivation of cancer cell apoptosis by somatic mutations has been reported in several cancers. Caspase-10 activation is important in the initiation phase of apoptosis. The aim of this study was to explore whether CASP10 gene that encodes caspase-10 is somatically mutated in acute adulthood leukaemias and multiple myelomas (MMs). METHODS: We...
