Abstract excerpt
The applicability of T cell receptor (TCR) Ddelta2Ddelta3 junctional regions for the detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) was examined in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Southern blot analysis showed a Ddelta2Ddelta3 rearrangement in 22 of 172 (13%) precursor-B ALL. No Ddelta...
