Abstract excerpt
Alterations in the function of the p53 pathway are frequently described in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), mostly associated with deletion of 17p13 and/or mutations of the TP53 gene. In the present study, we investigated 103 CLLs for the impact of protein expression of full-length p53 and its isoforms β and γ. A strong correlation between deletions of 17p13 and an accumulation of full-length p53 protein was...
