Abstract:
:We recently showed that alpha4beta1 integrin induces B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) cell resistance to fludarabine-induced apoptosis via upregulation of Bcl-xL. We have now studied whether p53 was involved in this response. Cells from five B-CLL patients with wild-type p53 determined by DNA sequencing, or from the EHEB cell line, cultured on the alpha4beta1 ligand H/89 during fludarabine treatment, showed significantly higher viability (P journal_name journal_title authors doi subject pub_date pages issue eissn issn pii journal_volume pub_type
