Abstract excerpt
Phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) is one of the best-studied tumor suppressor genes which can promote cell proliferation and contribute to tumorigenesis. This study aimed to investigate the PTEN mRNA (Pm) expression level in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and healthy controls, and its correlation with prognostic factors. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)...
