Karyotype complexity and VH gene status in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) induces growth arrest and apoptosis in acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) cells. Since cellular redox state regulates these events, we were interested in studying whether it has any role in the responsiveness of AML cells to ATRA. DESIGN AND METHODS:Two human AML ...
