Mashup Score: 2The soluble transferrin receptor reflects tumor load in chronic lymphocytic leukemia - 1 year(s) ago
Background : The soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) is a parameter of erythropoietic activity and iron deficiency. Increased levels have also been described in hematological malignancies, especially in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Methods : We investigated the value of sTfR in the assessment of tumor mass in 61 previously untreated CLL patients. Both hemolysis and iron deficiency were…
