FLT3 mutations in acute myeloid leukemia: Therapeutic paradigm beyond inhibitor development
10 Dec 2019
Abstract excerpt
FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) is a type III receptor tyrosine kinase that plays an important role in hematopoietic cell survival, proliferation and differentiation. The most clinically important point is that mutation of the FLT3 gene is the most frequent genetic alteration and a poor prognostic factor in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. There are two major types of FLT3 mutations: internal tandem...
