The Origin and Evolution of Mutations in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Clonal evolution in relapsed acute myeloid leukaemia revealed by whole-genome sequencing

Most patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) die from progressive disease after relapse, which is associated with clonal evolution at the cytogenetic level. To determine the...

Recurring Mutations Found by Sequencing an Acute Myeloid Leukemia Genome

By comparing the sequences of tumor and skin genomes of a patient with AML-M1, we have identified recurring mutations that may be relevant for pathogenesis.

DNA sequencing of a cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukaemia genome

Acute myeloid leukaemia is a highly malignant haematopoietic tumour that affects about 13,000 adults in the United States each year. The treatment of this disease has changed li...
