Genetic mutational analysis of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia from a single center in China using exon sequencing

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the most common childhood malignancy, is characterized by recurring structural chromosomal alterations and genetic alterations, whose detection is critical in diagnosis, risk stratification and prognostication. However, the genetic mechanisms that give rise to ALL remain poorly understood. METHODS: Using next-generation sequencing (NGS) in matched germline and tumor...
