[To elucidate the biological characteristics of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells, we observed morphological and functional changes of CML cells during primary long-term culture, in which their morphology changed to that of myofibroblasts with similar molecular characteristics to the parental CML cells including BCR-ABL fusion gene, and produced cytokines such as granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, interleukin-6, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A.].
