Research Abstract	BCR/ABL-induced chronic myelogenous leukemia was observed in mice lacking VEGFR1 cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase activity. However, the time occurring chronic myelogenous leukemia were largely varied in each mouse. Then, more detail study is needed for elucidation of relationship between VEGFR1 cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase activity and chronic myelogenous leukemia.
