Molecular cytogenetics characterization of a novel translocation involving chromosomes 17 and 19 in a Ph+ adult acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.

abstract：:Myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalyses the formation of hypochlorous acid and is involved in many (patho)physiological processes. The present study was designed to determine the effect of two MPO promoter polymorphisms (463G/A and 129G/A) on enzyme activity. In 243 healthy controls, genotypes were determined and MPO activity...
