title: BCR-ABL insufficiency for the transformation of human stem cells into CML.
abstract: On the basis of numerical and kinetic data, the paper argues against the tenet that BCR-Abl is sufficient for transforming into Chronic Myelogenous leukemia a human hemopoietic stem cell, regardless of degree of pluripotency.
