RUNX1 Mutations Can Lead to Aberrant Expression of CD79a and PAX5 in Acute Myelogenous Leukemias: A Potential Diagnostic Pitfall
5 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: RUNX1 is a crucial transcription factor for hematological stem cells and well-known for its association with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Besides the translocation t(8; 21) that leads to the RUNX1-RUNX1T1 fusion, somatic mutations of RUNX1 have been discovered. METHODS: Four bone marrow trephine biopsies of patients with CD79a-positive and/or PAX5-positive...
