1 Jul 2008
Abstract excerpt
Acquired genetic alterations such as balanced and unbalanced chromosome aberrations and submicroscopic gene mutations and changes in gene expression strongly affect pretreatment features and prognosis of adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The most frequent chromosome/molecular rearrangements, that is, t(8;21)(q22;q22)/RUNX1-RUNX1T1 and inv(16)(p13q22)/t(16;16)(p13;q22)/CBFB-MYH11 characteristic of...
