Abstract excerpt
Overwhelming evidence from chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) research indicates that patients harbour quiescent CML stem cells that are responsible for blast crisis. While the haematopoietic stem cell (HSC) origin of CML was first suggested over 30 years ago, recently CML-initiating cells beyond HSCs are also being investigated. We have previously isolated fetal liver kinase-1-positive (Flk1(+)) cells carrying the...
