Objective: To study the expression and role of cyclic-AMP response binding protein (CREB) and Bcl-2 in children with acute leukemia.

Methods: Ninety-two children with acute leukemia (leukemia group) and 30 children with non-hematologic malignancies (control group) were enrolled. The mRNA and protein expression of CREB and Bcl-2 in bone marrow mononuclear cells were measured by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot.
