Funded Activity Summary

Recent studies have demonstrated the existence of small pieces of previously undescribed genetic material, known as microRNAs (miRNAs), which are thought to have critical functions across various biological processes and regulatory pathways in cells. This project aims to examine the role of these miRNAs in the development of abnormal cellular proliferation that leads to leukaemia, by examining the expression of all known miRNAs in the abnormal cells of our patients with leukaemia.
