Abstract excerpt
Trisomy 21 alters fetal liver hematopoiesis and, in combination with somatic globin transcription factor 1 (GATA1) mutations, leads to development of transient myeloproliferative disease in newborns. However, little is known about the morphological hematopoietic changes caused by trisomy 21 in the fetus, and to date, the exact onset of GATA1 mutations remains uncertain. Therefore, we analyzed fetal liver...
