Abstract excerpt
We analyzed 60 B precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) primary samples and 15 cell lines for homozygous deletions of p16 and p15 genes and mutations of p16 gene. These included five cell lines and 13 primary samples with the t(1;19)(q23;pl3), and eight primary samples with the t(9;22)(q34;qll). Of 10 cell lines without t(1;19), homozygous deletion of both p16 and p15 genes was found in eight cell lines...
