Abstract excerpt
The Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) are heterogeneous stem cell malignancies clinically characterized by bone marrow dysplasia, peripheral blood cytopenias, and a high risk for transformation to acute myeloid leukemia. In early stages of disease, differentiation defects and maturation blocks result in deficient hematopoiesis. In higher risk disease, unrestricted proliferation of immature blast cells leads to...
