Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Despite the fact that a great majority (>90%) of patients with systemic mastocytosis (SM) carry a common genetic lesion, the D816V KIT mutation, little is known regarding the molecular and biological pathways underlying the clinical heterogeneity of the disease. OBJECTIVE: We sought to analyze the gene expression profile (GEP) of bone marrow mast cells (BMMCs) in patients with SM and its association...
