Abstract excerpt
Juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) originates from mutated hematopoietic stem cells. The mechanism by which mutant stem cells are sustained, leading to leukemia development, remains elusive. By comprehensively examining transcriptomic profiles, cell compositions, developmental trajectories, and cell-cell interactions across various stages of tumor cell development in a mouse model of Ptpn11...
