However, it has been reported that more than half of patients eventually relapse after the cessation of TKIs, suggesting that CML cells including leukemic stem cell (LSC) cannot be completely eradicated by TKIs. To this end, the identification of targets expressed in LSC is crucial for developing highly effective therapies … Show more
