Abstract excerpt
MOBILIZATION: of stem cells into peripheral blood is a crucial step in the procedure of autologous stem cell transplantation. Mobilization can be affected by many variables;underlying diseases, prior treatment and age. Many genetic polymorphisms mainly in adhesion molecules are thought to affect mobilization success. The CD44 is a cell adhesion molecule which is highly heterogeneous structurally. Polymorphisms in...
