Abstract excerpt
The number of steps involved in the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is unclear. The initiating event would be expected to exist in all leukemic cells, but subsequent events may be subclonal. If several genetic events occur, they may cooperate within the same cell or be alternatively...
