BIOCHEMICAL AND MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF BONE CELLS

The bacterial strain a thermophilic carboxymethyl cellulase-producing was screened from biocompost. The strain was identified as Bacillus sonorensis CY-3 according to morphological, biochemical and molecular analysis, then it was optimized for the production of carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase).

Several studies show that bone marrow (BM) microenvironment and hypoxia condition can promote the survival of leukemic cells and induce resistance to anti-leukemic drugs. However, the molecular mechanism for chemoresistance by hypoxia is not fully understood.
