If left untreated, newly diagnosed chronic phase CML patients finally progress to accelerated and blastic phase. After the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), treatment strategies of CML changed dramatically. However, the development of resistance to TKIs started to create problems over time. In this review, the current information about CML biology before and after imatinib mesylate treatment is summarized.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessChronic myeloid leukemiamoleculer biologyimatinib mesylateReview33191200WOS:00021494020000123997982N/AN/A
