## Abstract In order to identify regulatory genes involved in the development of an apoptosis‐resistant phenotype in patients with chemotherapy refractory B‐cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B‐CLL) expression of apoptosis‐regulating genes in B‐CLL cells was quantified using cDNA arrays and RT‐PCR.
## Abstract B‐cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (B‐CLL) cells fail to undergo apoptosis. The mechanism underlying this resistance to cell death is still largely unknown. Tumour necrosis factor‐related apoptosis‐inducing ligand (TRAIL) effectively kills tumour cells but not normal cells, and thus r
