PRL-3 is highly expressed in a majority of human T-ALL.a Microarray expression analysis of GSE13159 comparing bone marrow samples from healthy donors (n = 72) and T-ALL patients (n = 174), ***p = 6.8e−10. b Analysis of GSE14615 comparing PRL-3 expression between bone marrow samples from T-ALL patients achieving remission and patients with induction failure. NS = not significant. Representative western blot analysis of (c) primary patient T-ALL and PBMCs, and (d) human T-ALL cell lines, showing PRL-3 expression. The total protein loaded in each sample was used as loading control instead of housekeeping protein, with a band of ~50 kD chosen as a representative image in the figure.
