Abstract excerpt

Down syndrome (DS) children have a 10-20-fold increased risk of developing ALL or AML compared to non-DS children. An increased disomic homozygosity of the polymorphic DNA markers in the pericentromeric region of chromosome 21q (21q11) has repeatedly been found in DS patients with ANLL-M7 and DS-specific transient abnormal myelopoiesis (TAM), compared to the majority of DS subjects without leukaemia. Analysis of...
