Erythroblastic islands and extra-medullary erythropoiesis in chronic myeloid leukaemia.

abstract：:Thymopoietin (TP) was originally isolated as a 5-kD 49-aa protein from bovine thymus and was subsequently observed to affect T-cell differentiation and function. We report here the molecular cloning of a murine TP cDNA. The 2,514 bp fragment contains a 630 bp open reading frame that encodes for 210 aa, highly homologo...
