Treosulfan-based conditioning regimen for children and adolescents with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The mdr-1 gene, which codes for a 170-kd transmembrane glycoprotein (P170), is frequently overexpressed in multidrug resistant (MDR) tumor cell lines and in spontaneous tumors, including leukemia and lymphoma. However, it is also constitutively expressed as a normal gene in normal tissues. METHODS:We used h...
