Fast and Reliable Real Time PCR Quantification of Leukemia Associated Genes

The aim of this study was to automate the quantification of gene expression in leukemia cells focusing on 140 genes that affect telomere length, apoptosis control, NF-kB pathway and protein degradation. The study used samples for patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) at different stages of progression and treatment.
