We detected a global decrease of microRNA levels in LSC-enriched CD34+CD38−CD26+ and HSC fractions from CML-CP patients, and decreased levels of microRNAs and snoRNAs from a genomic cluster in chromosome 14, suggesting a mechanism of silencing of multiple non-coding RNAs. Here, CD34 is linked to chronic myelogenous leukemia, BCR-ABL1 positive.
