Abstract excerpt
The expression of the CXCR4 chemokine receptor on CD34-positive blood cells is reduced in persons with primary myelofibrosis (PMF). We analyzed the relevance of cytofluorimetric assessment of the percentage of CD34-positive blood cells that had a positive CXCR4 surface expression (CD34/CXCR4-se) in a large cohort of subjects with myeloproliferative neoplasms. Mean CD34/CXCR4-se was lower in subjects with PMF...
