Abstract excerpt
Silencing of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor gene p15INK4B by cytosine methylation of the promoter region has been associated with some types of hematological malignancy. To study in detail the patterns of p15INK4B methylation in patients with acute myeloid leukemia, we adopted a novel appr...
