title: [The expression of C-myc oncogene in leukemia and its relationship to clinical symptoms].
abstract: The expression of C-myc proto-oncogene were studied at the levels of protein in bone marrow cells obtained from patients with AML and CML. It was found that the expression of C-myc in florid AML and during blast phase of CML were much higher than that in remission of AML and in chronic phase of CML. In 7 cases of AML diagnosed for the first time, 2 cases with high C-myc expression had no remission after 3-6 months, while 5 with rare C-myc expression had remission after 3-6 months. This results suggest that the expression of C-myc proto-oncogene are possibly sensitive indicator of the prognosis of leukemia.
