  • Title: Confirming evidence for the clonal development and stem cell origin of Philadelphia chromosome-negative chronic myelogenous leukemia.
    Author: Kaye FJ, Najfeld V, Singer J, Cuttner J, Fialkow PJ.
    Journal: Am J Hematol; 1984 Jul; 17(1):93-6. PubMed ID: 6588750.
    Abstract:
    A 74-year old woman with Ph1-negative chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and heterozygous for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) was studied. Both A and B types of G6PD were found in skin. In contrast, white blood cells and platelets showed only a single G6PD type A. These results provide further evidence that Ph1-negative CML has a stem cell origin and develops clonally.
