Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prevalence of nucleophosmin (NPM1) gene exon 12 mutations in adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and its clinical characteristics. METHODS: Genomic DNAs from 101 AML adults were screened by PCR and sequencing or capillary electrophoresis (CE) for NPMI mutations. RESULTS: NPM1 exon 12 mutations were present in 31.7% of the overall cohort, including 1/1 (100%) of M0, 9/17(52.9%) of...
