Approach to the treatment of multiple myeloma: a clash of philosophies.

abstract：:Enzymes of the glycolytic pathway as well as some ancillary enzymes were studied in normal red cells parasitized with Plasmodium falciparum in culture at varying parasitemias as well as in isolated parasites. The levels of all enzymes except diphosphoglycerate mutase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and adenylate k...

abstract：:Interferon (IFN) therapy has become widely used for the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia. Hematologic remissions can be induced in about 60% of patients. Moreover, in a small number of patients loss of the Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome and of the BCR-ABL rearrangement is observed. We have used genomic Southern...
