BACKGROUND: To distinguish between subgroups of patients with acute leukemia, the rate of spontaneous (culture-induced) apoptosis of leukemic cells was evaluated using five methods. METHODS: Leukemic cells (cells) from the bone marrow of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL, n = 112) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML, n = 30) were cultured for 20 h in vitro.
