Abstract excerpt
Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) begins with an indolent chronic phase, and subsequently progresses to an accelerated or blastic phase. Although several genes are known to be involved in the progression to blastic phase, molecular mechanisms for the evolution toward blast crisis have not been fully identified. Oncogenic stimuli enforce cell proliferation, which requires DNA replication. Unscheduled DNA...
