Inherited and acquired variations in the hyaluronan synthase 1 (HAS1) gene may contribute to disease progression in multiple myeloma and Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia.

abstract：:In vitro models of granulopoiesis involving the inducible expression of either CCAAT enhancer binding protein alpha (C/EBP alpha) or C/EBP epsilon in myeloid cells have been shown to lead to the induction of a granulocytic maturation program accompanied by the expression of myeloid-specific genes.
