Molecular profiling of bone marrow stromal cells from healthy donors and patients with chronic myeloid leukemia
Evidence indicates that chronic myeoid leukemia (CML) stem cells (LSC) persistence is due to bone marrow (BM) niche protection. However, little is known about the underlying molecular mechanisms. We here characterized CML patient BM cellular niches including endothelial cells, mesenchymal stem cells and mature stromal cells that were freshly isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. Overall design: Examination of mRNA profiles in bone marrow endothelial cells, mesenchymal stem cells and mature stromal cells sorted from healthy and patients with chronic myeloid leukemia
