In leukaemic CD5+ B cells the expression of BCL‐2 gene family is shifted toward protection from apoptosis
1 Sept 1996
Abstract excerpt
This study further investigated the mechanisms that control apoptosis in leukaemic CD5+ B cells, and focused on the Bcl-2 gene family. The pattern of expression of Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, Bcl-xS and Bax genes, selected because of their interrelated role in the control of apoptosis, was analysed in a series of CD5+ B-cell chronic lymphoid leukaemias. Cells from 34 patients with chronic lymphoid leukaemia of B-cell type (23...
