DNA Damage and DNA Damage Response in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

Abstract excerpt

DNA damage and alterations in the DNA damage response (DDR) are critical sources of genetic instability that might be involved in BCR-ABL1 kinase-mediated blastic transformation of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Here, increased DNA damage is detected by γH2AX foci analysis in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of de novo untreated chronic phase (CP)-CML patients (n = 5; 2.5 γH2AX foci per PBMC ± 0.5) and...
