Genetic abnormalities of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) include chromosomal translocations and gene mutations. Commonly observed chromosomal abnormalities in AML are t (8;21), t (15;17), inv (16), and 11q23-related translocations. These aberrations produce RUNX1-RUNX1T1, PML-RARA, CBF-MYH11, and MLL-fusion genes, respectively, which promote leukemic stem cell formation by interfering with hematopoietic...
