Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Nucleophosmin (NPM1) gene mutations resulting in cytoplasmic delocalisation of nucleophosmin (NPMc+) are the most common genetic abnormality in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). In this study, we tested whether immunohistochemical (IHC) detection of cytoplasmic NPM1 (cNPM1) in formalin-fixed bone marrow trephine biopsies correlated with NPM1 mutations and the prognostic impact of NPM1 and fms-related tyrosine...
