Abstract excerpt
Patients with Fanconi anemia (FA) have an extraordinary predisposition to acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). The genetic mechanisms underlying the neoplastic transformation of FA hematopoietic cells are unknown. In this study, we have investigated the molecular features of hematopoiesis in the course of FA at different stages of the disease, including aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), and AML. The...
