Flow-FISH analysis of leukocytes and cultured T-lymphocytes from 3 representative individual patients with CML at different stages of the disease.
Total nucleated cells from peripheral blood (A and C) and bone marrow (B) as well as cultured T lymphocytes from the same specimen in each case (D-F) were analyzed with or without FITC-(C3TA2)3 PNA (respectively dark gray and light gray histograms). Total leukocytes (A-C) show shorter telomeres than the respective cultured T lymphocytes (D-F).
