Acute leukemias with structurally altered core binding factor subunits (t(8;21), inv(16), t(12;21)), 27-28 June 1997, Rotterdam, The Netherlands

Leukemia. 1997 Dec;11(12):2217-9.

Abstract

In the summer of 1997, the first meeting on 'Acute Leukemias with Structurally Altered Core Binding Factor Subunits' was held. During the meeting, which attracted more than 140 participants, many recognized experts in the field of CBF and leukemia were present. In this short report we summarize new data on CBF involvement in leukemia and other diseases that were presented during the meeting.
