Molecular analysis of the t(1;19)(q23;p13) translocation observed in adult leukemias.

abstract：:Inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) is abundant in biological organisms. PolyP is a major component of dense granules of human platelets and is secreted upon platelet activation. Studies from our lab and others have shown that polyP is a potent modulator of the blood clotting cascade, acting as a pro-hemostatic, prothromb...
