We also identified 70 genes that could be aberrantly repressed upon hypermethylation and 171 genes that could be aberrantly expressed upon hypomethylation of some of these DMRs in CP‐CML cells, among which 18 and 81, respectively, were in CP‐CML CD34+CD15− cells only. The gene discussed is FUT4; the disease is chronic myelogenous leukemia, BCR-ABL1 positive.
