Post-haematopoietic cell transplantation outcomes: why ST2 became a 'golden nugget' biomarker.

abstract：:We present the results of a novel method developed for evaluation of in situ amplification, a molecular genetic method at the cellular level. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to study bcr-abl transcript levels in individual cells from patients with chronic myelogenous leukaemia (CML). ...
