Current Landscape of Genome-Wide Association Studies in Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A Review

Abstract excerpt

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a clonal hematopoietic disease that arises from chromosomal and genetic aberrations in myeloid precursor cells. AML is one of the most common types of acute leukemia in adults; however, it is relatively rare overall, comprising about 1% of all cancers. In the last decade or so, numerous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been conducted to screen between hundreds of...
