Abstract excerpt

Recent studies investigated the role of an unusual immune response to infective agents in the etiology of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in children. Human beta-defensin-1 (hBD-1) is an anti-microbial peptide of the innate immune system, which exerts a killing role against pathogens. In the p...
