Abstract excerpt
The discovery of underlying genetic lesions helps to better understand the mechanisms of leukemogenesis and identify prognostic subgroups. Recent insights have allowed normal karyotype acute myeloid leukemia (AML) to be split into many molecular entities according to the genetic status of FLT3, NPM, CEBPA and MLL. Genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism analysis was performed on 22 well-characterised AML...
