Abstract excerpt
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is an aggressive disease that requires prompt treatment. Promyelocytic leukemia protein-retinoic acid receptor α (PML-RARα) fusion genes resulting from reciprocal translocation are considered a molecular basis for diagnosing APL. Moreover, PML-RARα fusion gene testing is an essential tool for monitoring the response to therapy via minimal residual disease and providing a...
